Quasimoto nymph - GordianKnot - 04-18-2010

Long time reader first time poster.

Looking for a recipe and instructions to tie a quasimoto nymph. Anyone have one they're willing to share?

Looks as though it is just a flash back pheasant tail.

I don't have the instructions, but it is a Pheasant tail nymph tied on a curved hook.

I looked at the picture again and it might be the Peacock and grouse soft hackle next to it. Except the title of it says "Quasimoto P.T." (P.T.=pheasant tail) it also looks like one of them has red copper wire on it.

Exasperating when a fly has one small material change, and it becomes a new fly with a new name and is bragged up.

Huh, I guess most of my nymphs are quasimotos. I usually tie on curved hooks.

Re: [HFT] Quasimoto nymph - GordianKnot - 04-27-2010

Yaw, the basic description I had was a PT nymph on a curved hook and a copper bead tied with copper wire and red collar. I was hoping for an actual recipe to eliminate some guess work. Imuna tie some up and see what the experts think of my offerings.

Thanks for the information.

Re: [GordianKnot] Quasimoto nymph - HFT - 04-27-2010

Then that will be easy to duplicate.

Reciepe:

Hook: Daiichi 18-14 1130 scud hook
bead: copper
Thread: 6/0 red
Tail: Pheasant tail
Ribbing: red copper wire
Thorax: Pheasant tail
Wing case: pearl mylar

Tie in order

Done
