albannachxcuileag Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Trout will get very specific in feeding sometimes as we all know and will ignore most alternatives to what they are actually eating and I have found this out to my cost on many an occasion. These little fellows represent a couple of the major food items across here at this time of year and can be quite productive when single minded trout are on the go. I would never have thought that the fluorescent green midge would take fish but it does and to the exception of all other small flies on occasion. I am indebted to Tupps for the sample of Savage Hair that he sent me, I find this a lot easier to use for winging that the poly wing material as the splay is much better on the wings. The use of the micro crystal hair is to emulate the iridescence found on a lot of wings The Fantastic Four.
