mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 I'm really liking the "tail" on the midge, so I did some in green D-rib and white embroidery thread. (it's got some sparkle in it) I haven't seen any others done this way, so I am calling it a "tailed midge". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Thanks, add. I hope they catch fish as well as they look. This time in the hotel has given me a chance to tie up some patterns I never would've at home. I am really looking forward to getting home and trying some of them out on the bluegills Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
portlyjoe 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Thats a really cool pattern you've come up with, Mike. I'm gonna have to tie a few myself to try out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piker20 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 That buzzer looks so juicy Mike. Just know that's going to attract everything. Have you used the white thread to rib from head to tail too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Thanks, Piker. Yep, the second to last step is to start the thread at the tail and build it up, then rib to just behind the dubbing and tie off there. My last step, to make it durable, is to coat it with a layer of clear polish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
