PT Jig

Here we will be tying a simple Jig variant of the Pheasant tail by mr. Frank Sawyer himself! The Pheasant Tail is classic nymph, really effective and probably the most popular nymphs in Icelandic trout fishing among with the Peacock nymph. This version of it tied in a jig style works great in running waters, in sizes from #12-18. The fly is a great option for both stream and lake fishing. The fly catches both brown trout, Arctic char and even salmon. I could write a whole thesis about how effective and good this fly is but I prefer to keep it short. Less is more. :) The PT Jig is a really simple pattern to tie and everybody should have it in the fly box when go fishing!

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
