PERDIGON ARKANSAS BWO T.H.

Description

Perdigon Arkansas BWO T.H. – Fast-Sinking Baetis Nymph

The Perdigon Arkansas BWO T.H. is a Euro-nymphing favorite designed to imitate Blue-Winged Olive nymphs (Baetis), one of the most important food sources for trout in rivers worldwide. With its slim, resin-coated body and tungsten bead, this fly sinks rapidly and maintains a lifelike drift, even in strong currents. Developed with precision for technical fisheries like the Arkansas River, it has become a trusted tool for anglers chasing selective trout.

Design / Features

The fly fishing flies feature a slender, tapered body in natural Baetis colors with ribbing for segmentation and a glossy resin finish that increases durability and sink rate. The tungsten bead head ensures the fly cuts through water quickly, while the jig hook design keeps it riding point-up to avoid snags. This streamlined build is ideal for quickly reaching deep feeding lanes and maintaining a drag-free presentation.

When and Where to Use

The Perdigon Arkansas BWO T.H. shines in tailwaters, freestones, and technical rivers where trout feed heavily on small Baetis nymphs. It is most effective during spring and fall Baetis hatches, but works as a confidence pattern year-round. Ideal for Euro-nymphing or as the anchor fly in a tandem rig, it consistently produces trout in both clear and pressured waters.
