Bug of the Month - Tying Midges With Hans Mylant

[@randydeskins9359]

Great midge patterns.

[@AnglersCovey]

Thank you Randy! Let us know how they work for you!

[@randydeskins9359]

I tie one similar to the DP 40. It is a great pattern.

[@brian1204]

Nice patterns, and I have a couple of questions… Why use downturned eyes on larvae and adult, but straight eye on the emerger? Since the larvae is wet why not use wire instead of the stretch rib? Thx!

[@jimholland1592]

Nicely done 👍

[@AnglersCovey]

Appreciate the comment! Thanks Jim!

[@waynegraff3942]

I swear I saw Juan Ramirez demonstrate that first pattern with his Pale Ale. Like a few years ago. Nice

[@AnglersCovey]

Thank you for commenting Wayne! Yes, Juan’s pale ale midge is another great larvae imitation as well!

@@AnglersCovey Reminds me of the Two Bit Hooker and Double Shot Baetis war of words. Good luck with that.

can you put what you use in the thing below

[@AnglersCovey]

Sure can!

[@smoothlarryhughes]

do you always tie these without a bead?

[@AnglersCovey]

Most patterns you can tie with or without, depends on angler preference and water application. 👍🏻
