Purple is a proven trigger color in midge fishing, particularly effective in low-light conditions, overcast days, and on heavily pressured tailwaters where trout have become conditioned to the standard black and olive colorways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bead head adds a focal point that draws the trout's eye and provides just enough weight to get the fly into the feeding zone. Available in #18, #20, and #22 to cover the core midge size range on the Frying Pan, Roaring Fork, and Colorado River. When the black or olive Zebra Midge slows down, the purple version is often the change-up that gets fish moving again — it's a must-have third color in any midge selection for Colorado's technical tailwaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePattern Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bead head midge pupa imitation — attractor color variation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purple with silver wire ribbing — high-visibility trigger color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/strong\u003e #18, #20, #22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBead:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bead head — moderate sink rate, subtle weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purple thread with silver wire rib — slim, segmented midge profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective trigger color in low-light and overcast conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective on the Frying Pan, Roaring Fork, Colorado River, and most Colorado tailwaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks year-round; especially effective when standard colors are getting refused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Fish It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDead-drift under an indicator or on a tight line at mid-depth through seams, runs, and pools where midges concentrate. Reach for the purple version when the black or olive Zebra Midge slows down — the color change is often all it takes to trigger strikes from fish that have been ignoring the naturals. Fish it as a single fly or pair it with a black Zebra Midge or RS2 as a dropper in a two-fly rig. On the Frying Pan, try it through the deep slots below the dam on overcast afternoons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in store at Glenwood Springs Outdoors, 831 Grand Ave, Glenwood Springs, CO.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mayfly","offers":[{"title":"#18","offer_id":54397091217774,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#20","offer_id":54397091250542,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#22","offer_id":54397091283310,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/1090\/7758\/files\/zebra_midge_purple_4bh.jpg?v=1785182595","url":"https:\/\/www.glenwoodspringsoutdoors.com\/products\/zebra-midge-bh-purple","provider":"Glenwood Springs Outdoors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
