Morrish Pheasant Tail Jig

The Morrish Pheasant Tail Jig, created by Ken Morrish for RIO, takes the classic Pheasant Tail nymph and enhances it with a modern twist. The Pheasant Tail has long been considered one of the most reliable and effective nymph patterns in fly fishing history, thanks to its simplicity and effectiveness. Morrish’s version maintains the original’s proven design but adds a jig hook and a selection of fishy color variations, making it even more versatile.

Fish it in Multi-Fly Rigs for Versatility: The Morrish Pheasant Tail Jig works exceptionally well when fished as part of a multi-fly rig. Pair it with a smaller, more realistic pattern as a dropper fly or use it as a lead fly in a Euro nymph rig.
