Quick Tie - Simple Midge

Recommended Posts

Here is a quick tie fishing fly pattern that uses minimal material; for ease of reference, we call it the Simple Midge. Works well on Bluegill, Sunfish, and fingerling Bass. Hope to try it on trout this upcoming Trout Stocking Season!


Recipe calls for:

Peacock Herl

Mallard Flank

Size 16 Caddis Hook (can go up/down as desired)

Black Tying Thread

Great Video! This will be the next pattern I'm going to try.

I actually have the Materials on hand; would a #12 hook be too big?

 

Thanks! :o

Thanks CasualAngler - Size 12 should work for Bluegill and Sunfish. I have some in sz 12 and 14 in the flybox for the upcoming trout season... plan to try it depending on what the trout are feeding on.
