Red Midge

Red Midge, Tungsten bead Head, Hank Jig

The Red Midge is a popular fly pattern used in fly fishing, especially in situations where midges are abundant. This small but effective fly typically consists of a thread body, often in a red color to imitate midge larvae or pupae. The red coloration is believed to mimic the natural appearance of these insects during certain stages of their life cycle. Anglers often use Red Midges in various sizes to match the prevalent midge species in the water they are fishing, making it a go-to choice for trout and other fish that feed on midges.
