There are many boards and forums across the net on which to post flies... smallstreams is the natural home of the midge. This took four applications of Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails to build a slick body profile.

Hook: Daiichi 1273 #22
Thread: Sheer 14/0 black
Yep! Not much to it. Cord the thread TIGHT to rib, form head and build the lacquered body. Some hours later they morph in to these...
excellent work, Andy,
cheers,
:D

Hey, cheers Roy. How's the sickly PC? :? We need to catch some new postings from you, I'm still staring in bewilderment at your patterns in Modern Midges provided much of the tying inspiration for the the pupa and emerger above :ugeek:
Catch you soon.
Andy
Very cool Andy. I like that a lot... or I should say Like those a lot.
How's the red on the hook in the first fly?? I've heard bad things about the colour coming off the Jardine ones.. Those any better? It looks like a nice hook.
Jim
jim - I've been using those red hooks for quite a few years now w/out any problems. they're cool and I wish I had more of them.
Absolutely gorgeous. I'm gonna try that out. Thanks for the pattern!
Sweet..... Cheers Mikey
