Zebra Midge Black

The Zebra Midge Black is a simple yet highly effective fly pattern designed to imitate the nymphs of midges, one of the most abundant food sources for trout and other freshwater species. Featuring a black body often tied with black thread or wire, this fly mimics the slender, segmented appearance of midge larvae. The addition of a beadhead (typically silver or black) helps the fly sink quickly, making it ideal for fishing in deep pools or fast-moving waters. With its natural look and quick sink rate, the Zebra Midge Black is an essential fly for nymphing, especially during midge hatches in clear water.
