Zebra Midge Nymph (Black) – Minimalist Midge Larva for Trout

A stripped-down midge pattern that consistently fools selective trout. A slim thread body with fine ribbing and a small bead creates the perfect, tiny silhouette for tailwaters and spring creeks. Effective year-round, but especially deadly in winter when midges are often the main hatch. Fish it under an indicator, on a tight line, or as a dropper behind a larger nymph. When trout won’t touch bigger flies, this is the “tie it on and start catching” option.
