The Pheasant Tail Flashback CDC T.H. Hot Collar fly is a refined Euro-style nymph designed to trigger takes in high-pressure trout water. Combining the classic silhouette of the pheasant tail nymph with a subtle flashback, soft CDC fibers, and a vibrant hot collar, this pattern excels in both freestone and tailwater settings.
At its core is a tungsten bead head (T.H.), giving the fly quick penetration to reach the strike zone fast—critical when fishing deep seams or pocket water on tight-line rigs. The barbless jig hook rides point-up, reducing snags and increasing your chances of staying tight to the fish during the fight.
The CDC adds life and subtle movement, fluttering naturally in the current to imitate emerging mayflies or small stonefly nymphs. Meanwhile, the hot spot—usually tied in orange, red, or chartreuse—acts as a visual trigger, drawing attention in stained or complex flows without overpowering the pattern’s naturalistic tone.
Whether used as an anchor fly in a two-nymph rig or fished solo on technical water, the Pheasant Tail Flashback CDC Hot Collar T.H. offers the perfect mix of realism, movement, and attraction. A must-have for Euro nymphers and modern trout hunters alike.
