Besides using the inexpensive Trilobal Nylon blended into dubbing for my Wingless Wets, it is a very useful flashy winging material.

Here are two emerging midges with Trilobal Bling Wings... and silver lined glass bead heads.

First my Opal Bling Midge:

Hook-Dai Riki 135 #16
Thread-UTC 70 Red
Body-Medium Opal Mirage
Rib-SM Red Ultra Wire
Wing-Trilobal Nylon strands
Head- SL Orange Rocaille

I also tied smaller thread bodied midges like this Olive Bling Midge...

Hook-Dai Riki 135 #18
Thread-UTC 70 Light Olive
Rib- X-SM Silver Ultra Wire
Wing-Trilobal Nylon strands
Head- SL Clear Rocaille

The other Thread Bling Midges I tied the same as the olive include:
-Wine with a Clear bead
-Black with a Root Beer bead
-Rust Brown with an Orange bead

Based on my fishing earlier this week on the Crooked River, I have added a couple of smaller Bling midges to the collection tied on Partridge K1A #20 hooks...

You have most of the Colorado tail water patterns covered with those last two.

Well done.
