Perdigon Nymph - Rusty Black Spot
The Rusty Black Spot is a perdigon with a dark, streamlined profile, designed to combine subtlety, contrast and fast sink rate.
Its rusty brown body with coppery highlights features a small black Black Spot just behind the bead, paired with a copper tungsten bead. This combination gives it a sober profile with just the right amount of contrast.
Its slim, smooth, varnished body helps it cut efficiently through the water. The Rusty Black Spot is also tied without a tail, a deliberately pared-back tying style that limits anything that could slow its descent.
The Rusty Black Spot nymph is part of our Tactical Series nymph collection: premium perdigons carefully tied by our most experienced fly tiers.
Premium tying
The Rusty Black Spot - Copper Bead is tied on top-quality HDN 302 Dohiku hooks, renowned for their consistency and excellent sharpness.

Optimized sink rate
A perdigon profile is designed to offer minimal resistance in the water. On the Rusty Black Spot, the slim, smooth, varnished body, the absence of a tail and the copper tungsten bead help it sink quickly down to fish holding deep or in stronger currents.
Match the weight to the river profile
To achieve the most drag-free drift possible, it is important to match the weight of the nymph to the depth and speed of the current.
If you fish too heavy, your line may become too tight and the nymph can drag underwater. Conversely, if it is too lightly weighted, it may stay too high in the water column and be swept away quickly by the current.
The Rusty Black Spot is available in five tungsten bead diameters: 2.5 mm, 2.8 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm and 3.8 mm, to suit different depths and current speeds.
