Feathersmith – Quill Perdigon – Fly Tying Kit

Description

Feathersmith was born from the passion we have here atFeathersmith for fly fishing. We treat all of our flies as we would a piece of jewellery and look at each as a miniature work of art – it’s all about quality materials and attention to detail.

All of our Feathersmith kits include access to a full step-by-step tying video, along with associated information on:

• The fly patterns history
• How to best fish the finished fly

This eleventh in our series of kits is our first foray into the world of ‘resin covered flies’ – better known as The Perdigon.

This nymph is perfect for targeting both Trout and Grayling on rivers and stillwaters and is one of the most successful nymph patterns in Autumn & Winter – especially in the faster/deeper water.

This Quill Perdigon nymph pattern is suitable for:

Target Species: Grayling & Brown Trout
Water Types: Rivers & Stillwaters
Location: All UK Rivers
Tying Difficulty:Easy

Our Quill Perdigon nymph kit contains:

• AHREX FW541 hooks (10 each of sizes #12, #14 & #16)
• Tungsten Beads (3.2mm, 2.8mm & 2.4mm)
• Solder Wire 0.3mm
• SemperfliClassic Waxed (Black)
• Strung Cock Hackle (Grizzly)
• Peacock Eye Natural
• Hot-Spot:Glo-Brite No.4 Scarlet
• Varnish:Sally Hansen Hard As Nails
• Pre-Tied Sample Quill Perdigon

Contained inside each kit is a leaflet which will direct you to a secret page on our website where all the videos can be accessed.

With the help of some professional fly tyers, we’ve identified some really beautiful and unique fly patterns, gathered together all of the materials from world-class and well-respected manufacturers (like Semperfli & Ahrex) and then created a kit which allows you to tie one specific pattern – 30 of each in 3 different hook sizes.

Here’s what’s included when you purchase one of our pattern-specific kits:

• A kit full of world-class materials – more than enough to tie all 30 flies in the kit
• Information detailing the history of the fly you are tying
• A video tutorial of how to tie the fly – presented by a professional fly tyer
• Information on how to use and fish the finished fly

The other piece of advice you will always hear is“It’s more expensive to tie your own flies than it is to buy them.” – not anymore it isn’t, our Feathersmith kits allow you to tie a stunning pattern with the very best materials available –all for less than 1 per fly– now that is great value.
