Description

Blood Midge Dry is a highly effective dry fly pattern that was developed by the fly fishing company RIO Products, This fly is designed to imitate the blood midge, a species of midge that exhibits a reddish tint during its adult stage. The Blood Midge Dry pattern is known for its simplicity and effectiveness, especially when midge hatches occur and fish begin keying in on the adult midges resting on the water's surface.

Pro Tip

Target fish in low-light conditions – The Blood Midge Dry is most effective in low-light conditions like early morning or late evening, when midge hatches peak.
