Perhaps responsible for putting more people in the 20/20 Club than any other fly.

Ken, I have to chuckle a bit. I have had Zebra Midges in my box for years. Two months ago was the first time I ever used one. The fish were on Black Midge larva, and the Zebra was the first pattern I grabbed out of my box.

My problem with those little guys is tying them on, not to mention handling a fish on 7x.
