Hen Wing Midge:

Hook: Partridge Hooks standard dry fly hook# 16 to #20

Thread: black 8/0

Body: Black dubbing

Wing: A single feather from a Whiting American hen Cape in dark dun

Hackle: Grizzly dry fly hackle

Note: I tie my midge patterns utilizing The tiniest of feathers that are found at the top of the hen cape, then tie it in horizontal over the body. When tying a larger size I will use two feathers, tied in at an angle.
