Description: The ARF Midge Pupa combines a translucent outer layer over a colored and ribbed underbody which is both durable and imitative of naturals. Wing buds and gill filaments are organza, a dubbed forward body mimics the area of the natural where wings and legs are forming and the glass bead provides attraction and imitates the gas bubble emerging midges use to help them reach the surface. A variety of colors and sizes are offered so you are always prepared!
