This is my "go to" fly on the Snake River in Jackson Wyoming. With a Euro-Nymphing technique using this fly on the dropper it has been amazingly productive. Once again appreciate the refined detail in your videos. I have recommended so many to your channel. Simply superior.
Thank you so much for your support. As for competition flies.... Its just flies i would use any time... Prrsentation matters in competition. And how you approach your beat. 😀🍺
As always buddy a great tutorial on technique and procedure. Thread control is paramount on most good Perdigones and all flies in general. Keeping it simple is a great approach. Tying in the round keeps the pattern stable in presentation with no up or down positioning to the fish. Well done.
Good luck with competition. But i know that you guys will do great. J remember US team being suoer focused and dedicated in two worlds i had been to. Thanks for watching my channel. Hope it will help you 🍺😀
Perdigons are my go-to during the winter months when the Brookies are hugging the stream bed. For nymphing, I’ve found Tenkara/Keiryu rods give the best line control through the rod’s length: no line mending or frozen guides are a nice bonus. Many thanks for helping us to develop into better tyers and anglers.
Thanks so much, glad i could help, Good choice, perdigons... I tried tenkara once. The only thing i didn't like is that line/leader is longer than rod. So usually I need to grab the line to land a fish.. Trout in Serbia is off season in winter so no problem with freezing 😀 Although i can see benefits that you mentioned. Plus its light gear and less weight on angler overall.
@@Oholisfliesandfishing I understand, which is why I only use a level line. I usually use a length of 12-15 lb fluoro (#3 or #3.5 in Japanese rating) which is 80% of the rod’s length, then whatever length of 6X fluoro to my fly. It’s not for everyone, and I had some growing pains on my initial outings with fixed-line fishing. The results were worth the pain and I’m now a 90% Tenkara/10% fly fishing guy. Please keep generating these tutorial videos where you explain the reasons of your methods.
Thanks for another great video Vladimir...very helpful as always...I so enjoy tying all my own flies these days since following your UA-cam channel...you have quite a library these days full of tips...I think the techniques and experiences you share with us are more valuable than the actual patterns you tie...although they're pretty good too :)
Very happy to learn from a world class competition angler ...thank you very much for sharing so openly with us Vladimir...I do not have your abilities but take comfort from at least being steered on the right tracks regarding effective flies and their fishing techniques ...it makes for a more enjoyable and confident day out on the river...happy Christmas to you and your family and all the best for 2023
Thank you so much for your kind words and support. Spending time by the river or tying is important. Skill level is not. As long as we enjoy the ride. Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your family 🎄
Great looking fly! Can't wait to tie some and try them out on my next trip. I didn't catch it but what size thread did you use for ribbing? Look forward to seeing your next video.
Yes and no... Pliva perdigon is inspired by bosnian flies, same as this one. Devin got his inspiration from guides that showed him flies during his preps for world fly fishing competition in Bosnia in 2015. I was competing for Serbian team at that competition
Awesome fly and great tips. 🎣
Appreciate it. Cheers 😀🍺

Thank you for your support

The lead in the bead slot is a great tip - thank you.
Glad it was helpful. 😀😀😀Thanks for watching 🍺🍺
Nice looking perdigon! It is true, sometimes flashy don't do the job.
Thanks. Funny enough, when very sunny i reach for flashy ones. 😀
U are best!
Thank you for the best videos on youtube!
Thanks so much for such a nice comment. I appreciate it.
Cheers
Vladimir 🍻🍻
Pretty cool as usual!
Best regards from Portugal! 😉
Thanks so much. Greetings for you and your great country 😃🍺
One of my favorites nymphs! Great video Oholi bro! ;-)
Isto... Obozavam je 😀😀🍺

Thank you so much my friend. Perdigons are so simple but so many get them all wrong. As you say, thread control makes a kot of difference.
Cheers 😀🍺

@@RETCAP10 its not. But its fun for me.
Thank you for your kind words and support 😀😀
This will do good in my home waters! TY!
I don't doubt it will. I love those green bugs 🍻🍻😀

Another great tutorial, thanks man hope the family is doing well!!
Thanks so much. We're great. Hope its the same with you?

@@Oholisfliesandfishing it's always great man
Glad to hear that

Great job and tips.

Thanks so much. Sorry for the late reply, i just checked and its 170den. But its sort of micro floss
Cheers
I tried to use a lighter as you did to darken the bead but the beads I have don’t change color. Any suggestions?
Did you use golden colour tungsten bead?
I do it only with golden ones. Brass(as a material) probably won't work. Also, try using tip of the flame..
Thanks. I may have tried with copper. I’ll try again.
Gold is the ticket. Thanks
@@wtw406 glad we solved it 😀🍺
