Krystal Midge Pupa
Tied by Steve Beedle
  • Thread: Grey
  • Abdomen: Krystal flash, dark blue and pearl white
  • Hook: Mustad 94831 #10-16
  • Thorax: Peacock herl
  • Tail: The core from Mylar tubing
  • Fishing Tips
    I usually fish this pattern sub-surface and vary the length of my gills and tail to make it sink deeper or float higher. Usually all that is needed to work this pattern is some short 1/4 inch twitches or when I'm lazy I use a strike indicator and drift with the wind.
