Twisted Midge

Craig fishes midges on the Madison year round, and as such he is the most knowledgeable midge fisherman that we know. So, when Craig tells us about a new midge pattern he's developed, we're all ears. Such was the case this past year with the Twisted Midge, which has been one of Craig's most successful flies over the past several seasons. Trout can be really tough to fool when keying in on single emerging midges, but the Twisted Midge is such a dead ringer for the natural that fish take it with confidence. It's also durable and floats well, which are both key when fishing small flies.
