RK's Wired Pupa

This is one of my go-to midges all year long. I use techniques of two of my favorite flies, the "rojo midge" and the "poison tungsten". This midge pupa/ emerger pattern is tied on an AFF N201 (down-eye, 3x --long, humped-shank nymph hook). Again, Allen Fly Fishing continues to create excellent hooks at an excellent price. Check them out at www.allenflyfishing.com. I will generally tie size 16 through 18 when fishing lakes and size 20 through 22 for rivers. The size of the Ultra Wire I use depends on what size hook I am tying.
Brassie Ultra Wire / Size 14 or 16

WD-40 Bead Head Midge

For this tutorial, I chose a simple pattern that even the beginner tyer can handle, the WD-40. Modifying this pattern from the original, I chose Coq de Leon fibers for the tail and wing case. The addition of this fiber adds to the durability of the pattern, plus the fibers are mottled with great coloration. This specific pattern is tied a chocolate brown, but don't be afraid to also try black, olive, grey, and anything else would be representational on your home waters.

Zebra Midge

Beginner's Fly Tying Series, Episode 11, Zebra Midge
Holsinger's Fly Shop brings you the simplest fly there is to tie, the Zebra Midge. I tied this easy little fly on a size 18 for video quality but fish this on small ones than that mostly down to a size 22. For all your fly tying needs please check out our website @ http You can also like us on Facebook and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Zebra Midge (olive)
For this "Two Minute Tying" tutorial, I selected a great fly for any level of tyer, the Zebra Midge. In this pattern, tied is the color olive, of which the color is paired with a gold tungsten bead and thin copper wire. When tying black, gray, or cream Zebra Midges, I will switch the bead and wire to a silver color.

Midge in the morning
A small little film from a gorgeous morning in New Zealand. Flat water, sunshine and hundreds of rainbows and browns feeding on a midge hatch for three hours. When we figured out how to catch them they queued up for our nets. Most fish were around the 1 kilo mark. Small fish for New Zealand, but they were all well-conditioned and strong fighters.
Floating midge
Excellent floating midge
Jailbird Midge
The Jailbird Midge is another highly effective midge pupa pattern for the Bighorn River and other places where midges are a prominent food source.

Lil Patriot Midge
This pattern will work great in cold weather fishing situations. Especially tailwaters such as the Missouri River in winter. This fly is a trout magnet. The red and blue combiation of materials with lend hand in making this fly stand out in a crowd and get trout chasing your fly. Fish inhale midge larva, pupa and adults all day long in winter, so why not put something in front of their mouth you know they will have a pankering for. The Lil Patriot Midge does just that.

Top Secret Midge
The Top Secret Midge Pattern is a great pattern that will fool even the most selective trout. We personally tie this pattern with CDC and it can be fished as a nymph or an emerger. Try tying this in brown, red, and olive in sizes #16 and up.
