Zebra Midges for Fly Fishing 12 Pack - Hook Size 18-22, Fishing Accessories, Trout Flies, Wet Flies, Silver Bead Black, Gold Red, Tungsten Euro Nymph
THE TUNGSTEN MIDGE THAT OUTSINKS AND OUTFISHES THE COMPETITION When trout are holding deep and ignoring your lighter flies, you need weight that gets down fast. These tungsten bead zebra midges sink immediately into the strike zone where finicky trout actually feed. This is the pattern serious tailwater anglers and Euro nymphers rely on year-round. The slim thread body imitates chironomid larvae—the single most abundant food source in every trout stream—while the tungsten bead provides the sink rate that puts your fly in front of fish instead of floating uselessly above them. YOUR 12-PACK INCLUDES: SIZES THAT MATCH REAL MIDGES: - Size 18 — Versatile for prospecting and larger midge emergences - Size 20 — The everyday producer on most trout water - Size 22 — Essential for ultra-selective tailwater and spring creek fish COLORS THAT CATCH FISH: - Black — Works in any light, any water clarity - Black/Silver — Flash for clear tailwaters and bright conditions - Red — Triggers strikes; deadly during blood midge hatches - Black/Gold — Visibility at depth; excellent for indicator rigs Each fly is hand-tied on chemically sharpened hooks with counter-wrapped wire ribbing. The tungsten bead is properly proportioned and seated. These flies drift naturally, sink fast, and hold up through multiple fish. HOW TO FISH THEM: Euro nymph tight-line through pocket water and runs. Dead drift 18-24 inches under an indicator. Drop 12-18 inches below a larger nymph or dry fly as a deadly dropper. The heavy tungsten gets these flies down where trout feed—then the pattern does the rest. Whether you're a Euro nympher who burns through tungsten flies, an indicator angler who needs weight to reach deep fish, or someone building a serious trout fly assortment—this pack delivers hand-tied quality and fast-sinking performance at a price that lets you fish aggressively.

Features
- + TUNGSTEN BEAD HEADS SINK FAST INTO THE STRIKE ZONE: Heavy tungsten beads get your zebra midge down quickly where trout actually feed—essential for Euro nymphing, tight-line techniques, and indicator rigs in deeper runs where lighter brass flies never reach bottom-hugging fish
- + HAND-TIED ON CHEMICALLY SHARPENED HOOKS THAT HOLD: Each fly is individually tied on razor-sharp size 18, 20, and 22 hooks—no dull points, no sloppy thread wraps that unravel after one fish, just quality fly fishing nymphs built to penetrate fast and stay pinned through the fight
- + EXACT SIZES SELECTIVE TROUT DEMAND (18, 20, 22): You get the precise small profile midge sizes that picky tailwater and spring creek trout actually eat—including the tiny size 22s most fly fishing flies assortments skip because they're harder to tie right
- + 4 PROVEN COLORS FOR EVERY WATER CONDITION: Black for universal confidence, Black/Silver for flash in clear tailwaters, Red for triggering aggressive strikes and matching blood midge hatches, Black/Gold for visibility at depth—each color catches fish, not just fills a box
- + ESSENTIAL PATTERN WHEN NOTHING ELSE WORKS: Zebra midges imitate chironomid larvae—the #1 food trout eat year-round—making this your go-to for tough winter days, pressured tailwaters, and frustrating sessions when dry flies and streamers get ignored
- + Perfect for Indicator and Tandem Rigs – Fish alone or pair with other nymphs for fly fishing in a two-fly setup.
