Idaho Fish Report

A few years ago Craig set out to tie a midge emerger which would work on the ultra-selective fish sipping late season midges on rivers like the Henry's Fork, Lewis, and Firehole at Muleshoe Bend, lower Slough and Iron Spring Creeks and other smooth waters where big trout selectively taking emerging midge pupae have proved next to impossible to fool. This one, although so easy to tie, is simply without question, or doubt deadly.....period! It, like so many effective/tiny patterns, looks like nothing much to our eyes, but to the fish it is simply irresistible. Craig would like to say he came up with the fly on his own but like most fly patterns know to man, Craig admits it is a result of the input and testing of other anglers and fly tiers.
