MIDGE MAYHEM

Description

The black Midge Mayhem is a compact, high-performance midge emerger that blends subtle realism with just the right amount of flash. Designed for technical tailwaters and cold-water conditions, it features a slim, segmented body with ribbing, a hint of flash, and a hot spot near the thorax—all tied on a jig hook with a tungsten bead for fast sink and improved bottom contact.

This pattern excels in winter and early spring when midges dominate the trout’s diet, and fish are feeding mid-column or just off the bottom. The slim profile imitates natural midge pupae perfectly, while the tungsten bead gets the fly into the strike zone quickly, even in faster current or deeper pools.

Whether fished solo on light tippet or as the trailing fly in a tight-line Euro nymph rig, the Midge Mayhem produces confident takes when other patterns go unnoticed. It’s particularly effective in tailwaters, spring creeks, and any clear-water system where trout scrutinize every drift.

Ideal for pressured fisheries and smart, selective trout, the Midge Mayhem delivers exactly what the name promises—chaos in the feeding lane and a tactical edge for the angler.
