Here is the picture. I think I'd tie it on a 16 down eye jig hook, tungsten, or not, maybe just a plain glass copper bead. Dark brown thread, tie in thin ribs of silver wire (i'd use silver mylar) and then Krystal flash in pearl. Do the body with thread, wind the two ribs so both show, then a dub, I'd use olive brown thorax, tie off thread behind the bead. I often tie a midge like this on a regular caddis Stealth size 16 or 14 hook. Check out Stealth hooks. They are black, strong, and sized to actual fish food. http://www.stealth.fish/. Only have 114 more flies to tie, 3 different patterns, and the flies for the Christmas orders and my personal gift boxes will be done. Sent prototypes home with my sister as she does the beautiful arrangements and packaging. Wore out my Nor-vise and had to send it back for repairs. Had to use a Regal and boy, did I miss the spinning part of the Nor-vise. However, still had the use of the Eckich bobbin. The Nor-vise has been completely repaired, no cost to me, as it is under lifetime warranty.
