Field Notes

A midge pattern is best fished on light tippet in slow to moderate water when trout are feeding on small insects. It works well as a nymph or emerger imitation, especially in clear water and during selective feeding periods.

Pros

  • Small, realistic midge profile
  • Buggy dubbing and ribbing add attraction
  • Good choice for selective trout

Cons

  • Very small fly can be hard to see and fish
  • May require fine tippet and careful presentation
