A hatch of size 20 midge's.  This fly has been a terrific pattern for me this season. Confidently taken every time. |

Nope ... Easy Dub Micro Chenille much stronger and more durable.

Cracking looking flies...they look as though they might be relatively easy to tie...as long as you have a magnifying glass  Alex |

They remind me of a palomino style pattern. It looks like you,ve burnt the end of the Chenille to taper the body.
I fish a very similar wet pattern with a soft hen hackle
Micro chenille is a great material. Often overlooked. Try the grey with a cock grizzle hackle. A sort of palomino grey duster, its a killer.
You have a very good pattern there Cust & one i wouldnt hesitate to fish with.

Very easy to tie. Black thread, short length of the Easy Dub (make sure it's that one and not just micro) tie it in, a few turns of cock hackle. Whip finish and trim the hackle underneath. Job done. Fast and simple.

Great pattern, i've used a fly pretty much like this succesfully fishing on roaches in Dutch waters.
(.....we don't have much opportunity to fish for trout in Holland)
