Krystal Flash Midge Emerger - Fly Tying Tutorial - Trout Fly

The Krystal Flash Midge Emerger is one of the more simple emerger patterns for trout.  This midge emerger is really effective despite using only 3 materials.  Krystal flash, thread and wire.  Tied like a zebra midge, but with an emerging wing.  These are one of my favorite midge flies for picky trout in rivers.  Its so easy to tie, I can make up 20 of them, and don't mind too much if I loose some due to small tippet.
