Field Notes

A perdigon is a slim nymph pattern designed to get down quickly and fish well in faster water. It is a good choice when trout are holding near the bottom in runs, riffles, and pocket water, especially as part of a nymphing rig.

Pros

  • Slim profile sinks quickly
  • Effective in current and deeper seams
  • Barbless hook is easier to release fish

Cons

  • Small size can be hard to see
  • Not ideal for surface feeding fish
