Beadhead Zebra Midge Pupa

With nearly 17,000 species of midges crowding our North American waters, the Beadhead Zebra Midge Pupa is an amazing generalist pattern that - when fished in several sizes and colors - can be used to effectively match the pupa or emerger life stage of almost every one of our midge species. With the addition of a dense beadhead, you can fish this pattern close to the bottom of the river where fish prefer to lie instead of drifting over their heads!
