Blue Ribbon Skittering Midge- Fly Tying Tutorial

Skittering Z-Lon Midge: The Art of Fooling Selective Trout Welcome to the world of midge fishing, where the Skittering Z-Lon Midge takes center stage. Developed by the skilled artisans at Blue Ribbon Flies in West Yellowstone, MT, this pattern has become a go-to choice for anglers on the Upper Madison during the winter months. Unlocking the Midge Code: Trout aficionados know the obsession that comes with midge fishing. Spend enough time on trout rivers, lakes, and streams, and you'll find yourself captivated by the delicate rise of trout to midges. The challenge intensifies as trout become adept at keying in on midges, creating a feeding rhythm that can bewilder any angler without the right fly. The Midge's Imperfections: Midges, however, are not without their emergence defects. Cripples, stillborns, and midges trapped in their shucks are common occurrences. Yet, these flawed insects are a delectable meal for discerning trout. Successful midge anglers understand the importance of imitations with trailing shucks and emerging wings. The Skittering Z-Lon Midge, designed with these nuances in mind, arose from observations of big trout targeting skittering, crippled adult midges struggling on the water's surface. The Skittering Strategy: Big trout are known to key in on impaired adult midges skittering along the surface film. Blue Ribbon Flies crafted the Skittering Midge to mimic this enticing behavior. Unlike pupal patterns, the dry presentation of the Skittering Z-Lon Midge makes it easily visible to anglers. Fully emerged adults might not attract as much attention from trout, but the skittering—impaired adults, complete with trailing shucks and hackle to imitate the caught-in-the-shuck look, are irresistible. Confidence in Every Cast: The Blue Ribbon Skittering Midge instills confidence in anglers and trout alike. Its design reflects a keen understanding of trout behavior during midge emergences. The trout will take it with confidence, and you can fish it with assurance. So, the next time you find yourself on the Upper Madison in the winter, tie on the Skittering Z-Lon Midge, observe the water, and let the dance of selective trout begin. Happy fishing! Additional Notes: The Skittering Z-Lon Midge has earned its reputation as a staple for winter fishing on the Upper Madison. It is a dry fly that not only imitates the skittering behavior of crippled adult midges but is also easily visible to anglers. Trout, often fixated on impaired midges, readily take this pattern. Carry it with confidence, and you might just unlock the secret code to fooling selective trout during midge emergences. Hook: TMC 2487 or 2488 #20 Sizes 18 to 22. Thread: Olive, 8/0.
