The Red Disco Midge is a flashy, high-confidence midge larva pattern that shines when trout turn selective in cold, clear water. Tied with vibrant red thread and iridescent tinsel, this pattern mimics the bloodworm stage of a midge—an important year-round food source for trout in tailwaters, spring creeks, and stillwaters.
Its slim profile and bright coloration make it easy for fish to spot, even in deeper or slightly stained water. Whether you're targeting picky winter risers or fishing beneath an indicator in early spring, the Disco Midge – Red delivers consistent results. Fish it on a nymph rig, as a dropper below a dry fly, or as part of a Euro-nymphing setup for best results.
Best for:
- Winter and early spring midge hatches
- Tailwaters, spring creeks, and technical waters
- Stillwaters where midges are abundant
📌 Pro Tip: Fish the Disco Midge – Red in tandem with a heavier tungsten fly or beneath a high-floating dry like a Parachute Adams. Use 6X or 7X tippet and keep your drift drag-free to tempt the most cautious trout.
