Red and Black Larva Lace Midge
Instructor: Elaine Cook

Chironomidaes, more commonly known as midges are available to trout and hatches occur throughout the year. It can be confidently said that any water holding trout will also hold midges. It was hard to keep Pyramid Lake Cutthroat away from this fly in March 2011. Needless to say, this pattern is effective in many waters.

All materials will be provided in individual packets, except for thread, so an accurate head count is important. There isn't a regular club meeting in February, so please sign up by calling Elaine at 688-1561 with at least 24 hours notice. There are tools, vises, and lights for those very welcome beginners. Please bring red 8/0 or 6/0 thread and black 8/0. If you sign up and later find you are can't attend, notice of cancellation is appreciated.
