Tying Tuesday: Midges, Leeches, and CDC

This week’s Tying Tuesday is a various assortment of bugs you’ll in all probability use within the subsequent month earlier than issues get too chilly and the fishing shuts down. We begin out with a CDC emerger sample for lakes, transfer on to a midge emerger, and end up with a pleasant little leech. Al these flies look pretty easy to tie, and seem like they need to put just a few fish within the internet.

Up first is that this Black Olive CDC Emerger, from MF Fly Tying on YouTube. It’s a UK-take on a lake model of a comparadun, in easiest phrases, and it’s speculated to work very nicely on stillwater. I’d strive it out right here within the states, for positive.

The oldsters at Avid Max have the subsequent fly, and it’s a implausible little emerger sample that appears pretty easy (a few of these emergers could be unnecessarily complicated). The Foamie Homie is a midge emerger that I’m placing in my field right this moment.

If it appears like Cheech, over at Fly Fish Meals, has been on a leech kick of late, it’s true. They’ve carried out up quite a lot of leech patterns these days, and this Mini Estaz Leech is geared in the direction of stillwater fishing. It appears easy sufficient.
