QUASIMODO PHEASANT TAIL
DESCRIPTION
Learn how to tie the Quasimodo Pheasant Tail, Hogan Brown’s go-to variation of the classic Flashback Pheasant Tail. This Northern California staple fishes anywhere trout eat mayfly nymphs, and the “hunchback” profile imitates emerging mayflies as gases build beneath their exoskeletons.
