Crystal Midge - Glass Bead

Midges bring fish to the surface 12 months out of the year. American Angler estimates midges account for 22% of trout's diet, by far the single most important single food source. Despite all this many anglers ignore flies below size 16, therefore fish aren't used to seeing artificial flies this size, therefore increasing their likelihood to strike. Midges are a great winter food source and this pattern has added flash and bubble to attract attention. Midges bring fish to the surface 12 months out of the year.
