Description

I’ve had a fair amount of success with these zerba patterns. Black probably gets the most action, but red does work out well. Some people make tails out of flash material and build up the head with dubbuing and put some white antron at the bead head. Larger sizes in the Spring and smaller in the Summer/Fall.

Materials

Hook Daiichi 1120 Curved 14-20
Thread Danville’s 3/0 Waxed Monocord – Black or Red
Body Black or Red Thread with Silver Wire
Head Bead

Instructions

Step 1: Place the bead on the hook. Tie the thread down to the shank of the hook and tie in silver wire. Zebra Midge Step 1
Step 2: Tie the thread up to the bead. Build up the body as you make your way up. Zebra Midge Step 2
Step 3: Wrap the body with the silver and tie off at the front right behind the bead. Put some glue around the body. Zebra Midge Step 3
