Another great pattern and fly tying instructional video by Barry Ord Clarke - One of those simple patterns that never seems to fail. This little black midge with a trailing UV shuck is, as the name suggests, a foolproof choice when the fish are on anything small and black. The up-side down hackle gives this midge a slightly lower profile when presented. Best in sizes from 16-24.
