Uses

Imitates an emerging midge. The wing pads of midges can take on an orange tint as the midge begins to emerge, and trout may focus on that "hot spot." For more on this subject, see the article Hot Spots.

This pattern is based on the "paraloop" style of tying wings. For more, see the article Paraloops
