In this week’s episode of Tying Tuesdays, watch as Brady Laehr ties the Glo Brite Miracle Midge! The Miracle Midge is a South Platte favorite as it can be fished all year round and will hook the pickiest of fish. The Glo Brite Miracle Midge version is updated slightly using the Glo Brite fluorescent floss rather than the typical standard single strand floss that is used on the OG pattern. You still get the "Miracle" of the translucent body when wet with the additional pop from the fluorescing thread when it hits the sun. It is a super simple pattern to tie, and with the right presentation will help keep the fishing solid year-round.
