My friend first showed me a perdigon nymph quite a few years ago while fishing in California together. I was skeptical at first but his catch rates on these nymphs were impressive. I started tying my own versions with krystal flash for the body and the California trout found them irresistible. I also quickly noticed how much faster these nymphs sank than other patterns which allowed me to fish them in smaller sizes and with less weight.

Devin Olsen's Quilldigon – Tactical Fly Fisher

Nymphs and wet flies are an extremely popular category of fly patterns. They are fished below the water surface and are designed to imitate insects and worms. A wide variety of fish species can be caught using nymphs and wet flies including trout, bass, crappie, sunfish, bluegill, carp, and more. They can be fished on their own, or in combination with a dry fly pattern. One effective technique is tying the nymph or wet fly below a dry fly with 12-24 inches of tippet in between them.
