Perdigon - Olive/Black

The Perdigon is the defining pattern of modern euro nymphing — a slender nymph designed to cut through the water column faster than any traditionally tied fly. The smooth body sinks like a stone, getting the fly into the strike zone immediately and keeping it there through the entire drift. The Olive/Black colorway delivers a natural, dark profile that imitates a wide range of mayfly and stonefly nymphs in freestone rivers and tailwaters.
