Ringneck Pheasant Tail Feathers

Hareline Ringneck Pheasant Tail Feathers have long been a staple material in the fly-tying world. These feathers are most popularly used for tails, gills, and wing cases on small nymphs ranging from mayfly patterns to Stonefly patterns and everything in between. The stiff fibers are easy to cut off of the main feather and tie into any nymph pattern and these feathers are available in a variety of colors so you can tie flies that match whatever hatch you’re fishing.

Uses

Patterns and Tying Techniques - Most tyers know this material because of its place in the classic Pheasant Tail Nymph. These small fibers are often tied in on top of the hook shank at the bend of the hook to create tails for nymphs or tied in and pulled over the top of a fly to create a wing case. These aren’t feathers you can tie in and wrap up the hook shank to create the body of a fly because of their short nature.

Pheasant tails are a must have for nymph fly tying.
