This fly is my second most successful pheasant tail pattern(behind the Hare and Pheasant). The single strand of Glo Brite orange rib is coated in resin and then cured to the fly. It appears quite muted and thin until hit with a UV light, at which point it glows like crazy!
I genuinely am still obsessed with this fly despite fishing with it for years. The construction and overall appearance produce an incredibly durable fly that is nothing like the countless flashbacks and frenchies lobbed around on a daily basis.
