12 Tungsten Perdigon Nymph Selection – Mixed Dozen #16 Trout Jigs

A dozen fast-sinking Tungsten Perdigon Nymphs featuring three different styles, with four flies of each pattern. These compact, heavily weighted flies are designed to cut through the water quickly and get down to trout feeding near the bottom.

Description

Perdigon nymphs are designed for one important purpose: getting down fast. Their smooth, streamlined bodies offer minimal resistance in the water, allowing the tungsten-weighted flies to sink quickly and efficiently.

This selection includes three different Perdigon styles, with four of each pattern for a total of 12 flies. All flies are tied in size #16, giving you a consistent size with different pattern variations to show the fish.

These are excellent flies for tight-line and Euro-nymphing, and they also make effective point flies when fishing multiple-fly indicator rigs.

Why Fish Tungsten Perdigon Nymphs?

• Fast-Sinking Design: Streamlined bodies help the flies cut through the water with minimal resistance.

• Tungsten Weight: Gets your nymph down quickly into deeper feeding lanes.

• Three Different Styles: Provides pattern variety when trout respond differently to color and appearance.

• Consistent Size: All 12 flies are size #16.

• Versatile Rigging: Excellent for tight-line nymphing and as a point fly on indicator rigs.

How to Fish It

Perdigons are especially effective when you need to get a fly down quickly in current. Fish them on a tight-line or Euro-nymphing setup, maintaining contact while allowing the fly to drift naturally near the bottom.

They also work well as the point fly on a multi-fly indicator rig. Their weight helps pull the rig down, allowing the other fly or flies to fish higher in the water column.

Capt. Ken’s Guide Tips

Getting your flies into the feeding zone is often the most important part of successful nymph fishing. In deeper runs and faster current, a streamlined tungsten Perdigon can help you reach the bottom without adding excessive split shot.

I especially like Perdigons as point flies on multi-fly rigs. They provide the weight needed to get the entire rig down while allowing you to fish another nymph above them.
