Midge Magic

November 20, 2006 By: Marshall Cutchin

Discover midges and you’ll also discover that fly fishing doesn’t end with the last Baetis hatch in November. “What got me interested in midges was the book, Midge Magic by Don Holbrook and Ed Koch (Stackpole Books, 2001). That, and watching Trout Babe (not her real name) land a fat 15-inch rainbow on a #22 midge tied to a 7X tippet on the Farmington River one afternoon.” Nick Mills describes the source of his fascination with tiny flies: they are easy to tie, and they almost always catch fish.
