A very widely used feather in fly tying and an essential item in any fly tyers inventory.
The centre tail from the cock Pheasant is used for the body on the famous Pheasant Tail Nymph (and also wet and dry variations) and as wing cases on many nymph patterns. It is also widely used to make legs on the Daddy Long Legs (two knots) and hopper legs (single knot). The uses are only limited by the tyers imagination!
