Para Midge fly pattern - Midge dry image

Description

The Para Midge is a high-visibility dry fly designed to imitate adult midges riding low in the surface film. Its parachute post keeps the fly upright and easy to track, while the slim body and sparse hackle match the delicate profile of natural midges. Effective year-round, the Para Midge excels during technical midge hatches when trout are feeding selectively on tiny dries in calm or slow water.

Pro Tip

Focus on the Drift, Not the Cast: In tough midge hatches, the presentation is key. Focus on achieving a perfect drift rather than making an aggressive cast. Let the Para Midge float naturally on the current, as it’s the subtle, smooth drift that will trigger strikes.
