PERDIGON SKINNY BWO T.H. JIG

Description

Perdigon Skinny BWO T.H. Jig – Slim Tungsten Baetis Nymph

The Perdigon Skinny BWO T.H. Jig is a sleek Euro-nymphing pattern designed to imitate Blue-Winged Olive (Baetis) nymphs, one of the most consistent food sources for trout in rivers and creeks. Its ultra-slim profile and resin-coated body help it sink quickly and cut through turbulent currents, making it highly effective for deep runs and technical waters. The addition of a tungsten bead ensures rapid sink rates, while the jig hook design minimizes snags and increases hook-up efficiency.

Design / Features

These fishing flies are tied with a slender olive body to match natural Baetis tones, ribbing for segmentation, and a glossy finish that adds both durability and subtle shine. The tungsten bead provides the necessary weight to reach feeding trout quickly, while the jig hook rides point-up, offering a more natural drift and improved contact with fish. Its minimalist build is impressionistic yet highly convincing to selective trout.

When and Where to Use

The Perdigon Skinny BWO T.H. Jig is most effective in spring and fall, when Blue-Winged Olives dominate trout diets, but it produces year-round as a searching nymph. It performs exceptionally well in tailwaters, freestones, and spring creeks where trout are selective and currents demand fast-sinking flies. Fished Euro-nymph style, as the anchor in a two-fly rig, or under an indicator, this fly is a proven producer in clear and pressured waters.
