Perdigon Nymph

Number 12 in the fly tying for beginners series is a basic Perdigon nymph.  These are great little nymphs for  Czech, French and other European style nymphing.  You can make them more complex if you want to by adding a rib, quill body or flashback etc. but you'll catch plenty of trout and grayling on the simplest versions. Materials Used Hook: Jig hook 14-16( I used Knapek) Head: Slotted tungsten bead Weight: .015 lead wire Tail: Coq de Leon Body : Veevus 10/0 Collar: Contrasting Veevus 10/0 Wing case: Black nail polish Coating: UV resin
