Black Zebra Midge 01/12/2026 Photo Album
For more information on the zebra midge check out my post of 01/24/2014. As is usually the case, when I arrive at the zebra midge in my production tying mode, I lament my avoidance of this productive fly. I usually select larger flies to prospect, but on rare occasions, when I opt for a zebra midge, I have been impressed with the results. How do I overcome this “too small” paradigm?
Tag End TailIf you read the 01/24/2014 post, you will note that I mention a silver wire; however, I actually prefer fine copper. I counted my black and olive zebra midges, and I concluded that I had adequate quantities of olive, but a few additional blacks would be advisable. I cranked out two black size 22 midge larva with copper wire in a matter of minutes. Maybe this will be the year, when I discover hot midge fishing.
