Vickie’s UV Midge Pupa, “The hero of the show”

Dale Voeller with the Oregon Fishing Club sent me this comment this week:

Your UV Midge Pupa was the hero of the show. I netted 9 – all but two were on the midge pupa. I started with the white in size 14, then switched to the black and silver in size 12.  I picked up the other two fish on a leech and a grizzly bug, both when I was heading out or in. I had my intermediate line on and cast it out and mostly just let it sink, but they were taking it stripped and trolled too. It wasn’t 100% consistent, but better than anything else I threw at them.

This fly pattern is a good choice when you see midges hatching

It took 45 minutes for this midge to hatch on the surface, which is plenty of time for trout to inhale this staple food source. I designed my midge pupa incorporating UV materials to provide anglers an additional advantage.
