## Description

Barbed Wire™ Midge

The Barbed Wire™ Midge is a highly effective glass bead pattern designed to imitate the midge larvae and pupae that trout feed on year-round. With its slim profile, subtle flash, and natural appearance, this fly consistently produces fish in a wide variety of waters, from technical tailwaters to freestone streams, lakes, and ponds.

Midges are among the most abundant aquatic insects in nearly every trout fishery, making them a critical food source throughout the year. The Barbed Wire™ Midge combines a realistic silhouette with a glass bead that provides just enough weight and attraction while maintaining a natural presentation in clear or heavily pressured water.

Whether fished as part of a multi-fly nymph rig, beneath an indicator, or as a dropper behind a larger attractor pattern, this fly excels whenever trout are focused on small subsurface insects.
