The Perfect Body Material for the Perdigon Nymph
When compared with other tinsels, the Semperfli Perdigon body material is more translucent and thin. This makes it perfect for achieving the Perdigon style on small hooks. For larger nymphs, use more wraps!
The slim nature of this material means that your home-tied Perdigons maintain a minimal profile and can thus slice down the water column extremely quickly.

Charles King –
This material works perfectly for small hook Perdigons. The thinness and translucency give a very natural look when tied. My nymphs sink quickly and are very effective in clear water.
Karen Bell –
I’ve tried several tinsel bodies before, but this one stands out. It’s easier to tie and the resulting nymph moves smoothly through the water.
Bella Morgan –
Great for small nymphs on medium-sized hooks. The profile is minimal and it slices through the water column without resistance.
