The Red Brassy is a proven midge imitation that combines simplicity, durability, and effectiveness in one small package. Designed with a fine red wire body and ribbing that catches light, this pattern mimics the natural sheen of midge larvae and small aquatic insects drifting near the bottom. Its slim profile and subtle flash make it an excellent choice for trout feeding in clear, cold water where precision and realism matter most.
Effective year-round, the red coloration is particularly deadly during winter and early spring when midges dominate a trout’s diet. The Brassy - Red sinks quickly, resists damage, and can be fished alone or as a dropper beneath a dry fly. It’s a confidence pattern that consistently produces fish in tailwaters, freestones, and spring creeks alike.
Best for:
- Trout feeding on midges or small aquatic larvae
- Clear or cold-water conditions in winter and early spring
- Nymph rigs or dropper setups in technical water
📌 Pro Tip: Use the Brassy - Red as a trailer behind a heavier nymph or attractor pattern. Its subtle shine and small profile make it deadly for selective trout holding in slow, deep runs.
