The Guideline CDC Midge Black is an all-around dry fly designed with a subtle surface footprint that delivers a lifelike presentation. Inspired primarily by midge imitations, it also effectively mimics other small black insects like gnats and chironomids. Especially efficient when trout or grayling target small black insect clusters at the surface, it performs equally well as a searching fly in both still waters and streams. The CDC material ensures a delicate float on the water surface, often enticing strikes when other flies fail. Tied on a Fasna F-100 barbless dry fly hook, it merges lightness with strength, making it ideal for sensitive and sustainable fishing presentations.
