Description

The Blood Midge imitates the worm-like appearance of red midge larva. An extremely durable fly you can fish all day. This pattern excels in rivers and lakes, fished near the bottom up to mid-column where fish are typically feeding on the larva.

Pro Tip

When fishing a tandem nymph rig, use a JuJu Bee or Top Secret midge as the point fly. Its a great combo!
