Field Notes

A perdigon is a fast-sinking nymph designed to get down quickly in moving water and present a compact profile to trout. It is especially useful as a point fly in euro-nymphing or tight-line rigs, and it can also work under an indicator when fish are holding near the bottom.

Pros

Slim profile sinks quickly
Good for getting down in current
Barbless hook is fish-friendly

Cons

Small size can be hard to see and handle
Less effective when fish are feeding high in the water column
