Krystal Flash Perditions

[Roadkill]

My Perditions are a take-off of Perdigons. I try to simplify the materials and cut out some stages of the originals.

Thanks Roadkill for sharing these patterns and the links. Im going to sit down and tie some these up, with the hopes that it warms up a bit in these parts. I have been working on some Bwo nymphs and softhackles. Between batttling COVID and the Michigan winter all I can think of are warm spring days.
Mike.
