About this fly

The Cream Midge Larva, it's a no-frills, nothing special fly. A white abdomen and a black thorax make for an incredible fish catching machine on tailwaters and freestones in late fall through early spring. Tie a few of these up next time you head to your local tailwater and see what the trout think.
