Lewis' Cripple Midge
Lewis Cripple Midge
When summer conditions turn challenging, the Cripple Midge is Gareth’s go-to pattern. Small and understated, yet packed with key “trigger” features, it remains highly visible even at distance. Gareth recommends lightly greasing the hackle and wing before fishing.
Ideal for wary or highly selective trout and grayling, it shines on hot summer evenings when fish scrutinise every detail. Tied on the Fulling Mill Tactical Midge hook, it can be scaled down to the tiniest sizes when subtlety is essential, while maintaining hook strength for larger fish.
A true killer fly for long, glassy glides where trout rise to seemingly nothing. For perfect presentation, Gareth trims the lowest hackle fibres so it sits naturally every time.
