Tying the Crystal Midge, Awesome Pattern For Selective Trout

This easy to tie midge pattern gets it done when fish are feeding small. Its a fact of life that sometimes the big stuff just wont get it done. But the foam on this pattern and the incorporated flash makes fishing this little midge enjoyable. Crank some out and get some fish in the net...

Fishing small patterns can be annoying sure! But it is so rewarding to catch a lunker fish off a tiny pattern! This one has put a pile of fish in the net for us!

Great Tie! What are some of the ways that you fish this pattern?

Hey Tony! We fish this bad when small midges are coming off. So generally in our area we are fishing it in chillier weather. It fishes well on top and just under the surface. We sometimes fish it as a tandem midge setup, like you would with a hopper dropper set. We use this one for the buoyancy of the foam and then fish a smaller midge pattern off the rear. We usually use versions of thus fly tied in "attractor" colors like red, purple etc if we are fishing it tandem. Hope this helps. Any other questions please feel free to ask!
