PAF 8 Perdigon

The PAF 8 Perdigon is a streamlined, ultra-effective nymph designed to get into the strike zone quickly, making it a go-to fly for Euro-nymphing enthusiasts. With its sleek UV-coated body and tungsten bead, the PAF 8 cuts through fast water with ease, sinking quickly to where trout and grayling are feeding. Its minimalistic design ensures a rapid descent, while the vibrant purple body adds flash to attract fish in both clear and murky waters. Tied on a barbless hook, the PAF 8 Perdigon has a durable built, with a resin-hardened body, ensuring it holds up through aggressive fishing in all types of river conditions. This fly excels in fast currents and deep pools, making it an excellent choice for anglers targeting fish holding near the bottom. PAF 8 Perdigon comes in two hook sizes: #14 & #16. How to fish this fly The PAF 8 Perdigon is highly effective when fished using Euro-nymphing or tight-line nymphing techniques. Cast upstream and allow the tungsten bead to drive the fly deep into the water column. The streamlined body design allows for a natural drift along the riverbed, keeping the fly in the feeding zone for longer periods. Use a dead drift to imitate a drifting nymph, or combine with a two-fly rig, using the PAF 8 as your anchor fly. Its ability to sink fast makes it particularly effective in fast-moving currents, deep runs, and riffles where fish are holding deep. This fly is ideal for both clear and slightly stained water conditions, thanks to its reflective vibrant body.
