I’ve used the Black Zebra Midge nymph in a lake with clear water and it worked well. The beaded head helps it sink fast and I caught several trout on it during a morning cast. Solid pattern for stillwater fishing.

The flies arrived quickly and look well-made. I used them in a tailwater area and noticed they stayed on the bottom better than other nymphs I’ve tried. A good choice for trout in deeper water.

Great quality and consistent color. The beaded head helps it sink quickly, which is exactly what I needed for fishing in a lake with deep zones. I’ll be buying more of these.
