Olive Midge Wet

Mimics the subsurface stage of olive-colored midges and small mayflies, particularly effective in lakes and tailwaters where midges dominate.

History: A more modern wet fly, this style grew in popularity in the mid-to-late 20th century as midge-focused patterns became essential. The olive coloration directly matches common Chironomid pupae, making it a staple in technical trout fisheries.
