Easy Spot Midge

Fly: Lars Christian Benten, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: TMC 103BL # 21
Thread: Black UNI 8/0
Body: Black Flyrite # 1
Wing: Yellow poly yarn, single post, cut short
Hackle: Black cock hackle (genetic), tied parachute
Note: The yellow wing makes the midge-imitation easy to spot in the surface (hence the clever name ?). Originated by fishing-friend Peter Jepsen. An absolutely essential fly all through the season.
