I was looking in my mayfly nymph box today and noticed all the different variations of the pheasant tail nymph I carry. So It got me thinking is there a more versatile nymph than the pheasant tail nymph. Here are examples of the pheasant tail nymph I carry in my fly box.

The question is can a person carry to many pheasant tail nymphs?
Is there a more versatile nymph than the Pheasant Tail Nymph?
My favorite PT nymph is a #16 FB BH PT nymph.
ReplyDeleteI also like it in #18. I have rocked a ton of fish with these.
