Midge Fishing 101
 
MIDGE FISHING 101 

February 20st and 23rd, 2013
Instructor: Nick Teynor 
 

December, January, and February can be lonely months on our western fisheries. Spring's warming touch is still a distant memory, people are shredding the slopes, and many a fishermen is bent over his tying vice getting ready for summer adventures. We couldn't be happier! It is this time of year that many of us at Western Rivers look forward to, because of the potential thick Midge Hatches on the Middle and Lower Provo, and Green River. When the conditions are right, you can have epic dry-fly action, and be all alone. It is this reason that motivates us to venture out into winters frigid temperatures, and why we keep doing it year after year. This class has been set up to introduce and teach you the entomology of midges, and effective ways to fish hatches of these vital insects.
