A tiny, deadly midge emerger/pupa with a built-in trigger. The Bubble Midge (Black) pairs a slim, dark body with a glossy “bubble” thorax that mimics the trapped air of an emerging midge—perfect for cold, clear conditions and picky trout.
-
When it excels: Late fall through spring on tailwaters and spring creeks; overcast days; soft seams, slow runs, and pool tails
-
Why it works: Black silhouette shows up in clear water while the shiny bubble thorax screams “emerging midge”; slender segmentation keeps the profile natural
-
Pack size: 3 flies
-
Targets: Trout (rainbow, brown, brook)
-
Ready to fish: Sparse, durable tie with consistent proportions for subtle, drag-free drifts
How to fish it
Dead-drift under an indicator with light tippet or tightline/Euro with steady contact; adjust depth until you tick occasionally. During active midge hatches, run it 12–24" below a small dry (griffith’s/CDC midge) or suspend it mid-column; finish each drift with a gentle lift to suggest the ascent.
Care
Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing to prevent hook corrosion.
Satisfaction
30-day returns/exchanges.
