You bastard, caddis nymphs are my favorite pattern (to fish and tie) and now I must tie this one. However I do not have any midge tubing so I must go to the fly shop...I never come out with just what I went in for...and the wife knows it.
Sorry Keith . I know what your saying . Go in for hooks come out with a years supply of tying stuff.
Well I needed midge tube in chartruese I came out with:
Midge tube in chartruese (x2), lt olive, olive, brown, black, and blood red.
Half a partridge skin
4 packs woodduck flank feathers
Ostrich herl in tan, white, and olive
Caddis hooks in size 10,12,14
Opalescent Flashbou in chartruese
and reel lube....
It could have been worse

Way to support your local fly shop Keith. With you around they should be in business for a good while

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.
