Product details

Stan's Gallic Pheasant Tail Nymph

Another nymph with a difference from Stan, the Gallic Pheasant Tail Nymph.

This fly is tied to perfection (as is usual with any of Stan's flies) - and he's been experimenting again!

Let me introduce you to Stan's Gallic Pheasant Tail Nymph, available in 3 different colour variations:

  • Black
  • Dark Red; and
  • Pearl White

Each nymph is tied with a specialist pheasant tail body.

Our selection of Stan's Gallic Pheasant Tail Nymphs are all tied on Hends BL454 size 16 barbless hooks.

A great fly to try at this time of year. This style of nymph is found in all of our rivers (and Stillwaters), with Grayling (and Rainbow Trout) gorging on them as they become dislodged. Trundle one of these along the riverbed and hang on!

This nymph imitation is ideally used as a dropper fly in any nymphing setup (and great for sight nymphing in slower flows). Don't forget about using these on stillwaters also - a figure-of-eight retrieve on a floating line keeps them moving naturally. These imitations are all tied on size 16 barbless Hends BL454 hooks.

  • Fly Name: Gallic Pheasant Tail Nymph
