famill00 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2011 Here is a pic of the Zebra Midges: I think it would be great if everyone posted a pic of their flies this year and posted the recipe for the fly. What does everyone else think? Recipe: Size 20 Scud hook 8/0 Black Thread body Chartreuse wire Smallest beadhead I could find in my supply Pic is taken on macro mode with my new Pentax Optio WG-1 - I am loving this camera!
