Couldn't load pickup availability
The Pheasant Tail is the nymph that started it all — Frank Sawyer's wire-bodied original has been fooling trout since before nymphing had a name. This retro trucker puts that legend on the classic Yupoong 6606, the six-panel structured cap with a breathable mesh back that's made for long days on the water.
The mid-profile crown keeps it comfortable under the sun, the 60/40 cotton-polyester blend holds its shape trip after trip, and the adjustable snapback dials in the fit over a buff or bare head. Whether you're tight-lining a seam or indicator fishing a deep run, this is the hat for anglers whose confidence starts subsurface.
Wear the pattern that taught the world to fish nymphs. One size fits most.
The Pheasant Tail's story is fly fishing history: Frank Sawyer wrapped pheasant tail fibers with copper wire on the chalkstreams of England, creating a nymph so effective it was once kept quiet during wartime. That heritage rides along in this cap — a nod to the pattern that proved the simplest ties often catch the most fish.
