-Dark olive/ silver bead and a pearl tinsel butt put together make one of my favorite nymph color schemes. When applied to a classic like the pheasant tail and throw in a cdc collar you’re left with an irresistible nymph pattern that is surely different than the countless artificial pheasant tails a fish sees in a day.
- Dark (black/grey) Pheasant Tails are a favorite of mine in early or late season as well as whenever I want a dark silhouette to help my fly stand out. The red tinsel is a classic trigger accompanying the movement of the cdc collar gives loads of attractor points to this natural fly.
