What It Imitates: Single adult midges — those tiny, delicate bugs that make up the bulk of a fish’s diet, especially in winter and early spring.
Type: Dry Fly
Pros (Why You’ll Love It):
- Sparse, ultra-realistic profile fools picky trout sipping tiny bugs
- Rides low in the surface film just like a natural midge
- Perfect for flat water and technical tailwaters (river below a dam)
- A go-to fly when trout are keyed in on the smallest dries
Best Ways to Fish It: Fish it on a long, light tapered leader with a dead-drift across smooth runs, seams, and tailouts. Cast gently and watch carefully — takes are subtle. If you’re having trouble seeing it, try fishing it behind a small, visible dry like a Griffith’s Gnat as an indicator.
Where & When to Use: Best in winter and early spring when midges dominate the hatch chart, but works year-round on technical tailwaters and spring creeks.
Extra Tip(s): If it starts sinking, dry it off and use powdered floatant — gel floatant can weigh it down and ruin the natural ride.
What’s in the Pack: 3x Matt's Midges tied on premium hooks.
