The Mercury Midge Beadhead worked well in both morning and evening fishing. The glass bead gave a natural flash that attracted trout in clear water. It’s easy to tie and looks authentic.

I’ve used this fly in several lakes and it consistently draws fish. The reflective bead makes a noticeable difference in presentation, especially in low light.

Great detail in the body and bead. The swimming motion is smooth and realistic. I caught two fish within 30 minutes of using it.
