Manhattan Midge Purple #18

The Manhattan Midge in purple is a flashy midge pattern with big-city attitude. Purple has proven effective on pressured trout, standing out in the drift while reading buggy and natural.

Fish it as a dropper in tailouts and slow pools during midge hatches. Size #18 is right for the small-fly game of technical water. Midges hatch in every month of the year, so this is a pattern worth keeping on your rig from winter straight through fall.
