Morrish's Anato-May

Nice tie there Tim. Should have been name the Pheasant Tail Pimp. I like a fly with a little bling but it seems like at least half the nymph patterns are a variety of a PT with optional materials used.

True Uncle Jesse,

But... that's because Pheasant Tail works...one can always go with different materials for the abdomen and ways of using KF...and magic stuff...
