Will the Perdigon join the short list of tried and true fly patterns? (STEVE ANGERS PHOTO)

Scrolling through social media the other day my eye caught a post from Fulling Mill about the new flies for 2023. The fly displayed was named Weiss’ Penny Perdigon. The fly was tied on a jig hook, for tight line nymphing, with a copper bead and a copper holographic tinsel body, coq de leon fibers for a tail. The fly looked fishy.

The copy under the post read: “Like your favorite lucky penny, Pat Weiss’ Penny Perdigon will bring you good fortune while on the river. This little magic nymph seems to work in any condition throughout the year.”
