Caramel Specialist Perdigon

Caramel Specialist Perdigon nymph is a small and heavy nymph tied for your most picky fish. This is a perfect fly for fast and very fast rivers and works great on both clear and muddy waters. This pattern is a perfect complement to our Olive and Silver Perdigon pattern as these two flies can cover a wide spectrum of insects. Caramel Specialist Perdigon nymph is a stimulator type of fly and makes the fish strike based on territorial instinct.

Tied on top quality barbless Demmon hook with a tungsten bead to provide extra weight. The barbless hook minimizes snags. The tail is tied using Coq de Leon feathers, which gives this fly a more realistic look.

Caramel Specialist Perdigon nymph comes in three hook sizes #14, #16, and #18.
