It's the kind of fly that earns its place in your box on the first outing and never leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePheasant Tail nymphs are one of the most universally effective trout flies ever tied, and this version is built for Colorado's demanding tailwaters. The tungsten bead gets it down fast in the Frying Pan's deep runs and the Roaring Fork's swift pocket water, while the CDC collar breathes and pulses in the current to imitate the legs and gills of a natural mayfly nymph. The flashback wing case catches light and adds a subtle trigger that selective trout can't resist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePattern Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tungsten bead nymph\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e CDC Flashback Pheasant Tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/strong\u003e #14, #20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBead:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tungsten — fast sink rate, gets to depth quickly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWing case:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flashback material — subtle flash trigger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollar:\u003c\/strong\u003e CDC — lifelike movement and buoyancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImitates Baetis, PMD, and other mayfly nymphs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective on the Roaring Fork, Frying Pan, Colorado River, and most Colorado tailwaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Fish It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDead-drift on a tight line or under an indicator at depth. The tungsten bead does the work of getting it into the strike zone fast — let it drift naturally through seams, runs, and the heads of pools. Pair with a Zebra Midge or RS2 as a dropper for a versatile two-fly rig. Especially effective during Baetis and PMD hatches when trout are keyed on subsurface nymphs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in store at Glenwood Springs Outdoors, 831 Grand Ave, Glenwood Springs, CO.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"North Country","offers":[{"title":"#14","offer_id":54391738532206,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#20","offer_id":54391738564974,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/1090\/7758\/files\/CDC-Flashback-PT-TB_9d37a31e-6409-4082-8170-33c9d9cbe2b4.jpg?v=1785098847","url":"https:\/\/www.glenwoodspringsoutdoors.com\/products\/tb-cdc-flashback-pheasant-tail","provider":"Glenwood Springs Outdoors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
