An absolute must for midge fishing! This super quick and easy pattern should have a place in every midge Fishermans box. With only two materials this is one of the quickest and most effective patterns that I know. Tie it in any colour you like from # 16 and smaller. This will quickly become your best hatching midge pattern!

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
