Sipper Midge Fly Tying Materials

Our version of the classic Bighorn River pattern, this fly packs a punch and catches a lot of fish! Black, Olive, Gray, and Cream are our favorite color schemes, in sizes 16-22. When fishing this fly, just put a dab of floatant on the hackle so the body sits in the surface film.
