In this week’s episode of Tying Tuesdays, watch as Max ties the Double Dip Chironomid! Why fish one meal when you can fish two?! This fly is for stillwater trout that have a big appetite. Fishing this fly under an indicator or on a slow sinking line is ideal, just keep it moving slowly with a twitch here or there. This is intended to be a cluster of bugs, not a mating bug. The mating happens in the adult phase of their life cycle. This fly can be very effective when fish are keyed in on chironomids and guzzling them by the dozen.
