One material for several parts of a fly
Fibres from the long tail feathers can be used to create slim segmented bodies, tails, legs and wing cases. When wrapped around the hook, their naturally alternating light and dark tones produce a distinctive segmented appearance.
The shorter feathers around the base provide additional options for wet flies, streamers and other patterns requiring a natural silhouette and movement.
A classic material for Pheasant Tail nymphs
Pheasant tail feather is the principal material used for the famous Pheasant Tail nymph and its many modern variations. The same fibres can be used to form the tail, body, wing case and legs of the fly.
Why choose a complete tail?
A complete tail provides a broader selection of feathers than packs containing only individual tail feathers. The fly tyer can choose the most suitable length, fibre structure, markings and natural shade for each fly pattern.
Every natural tail is unique
Please note: As this is a natural material, individual pieces can vary in colour, markings, size and feather density. Some tails feature stronger brown and rusty tones, while others contain more grey or muted natural shades. Product photographs are for illustrative purposes.
