The Umpqua Frenchie Chironomid, Size 10, is tied to match larger chironomids often found in nutrient-rich stillwaters. This size is particularly useful early in the season or in lakes with a reputation for large, mature midges. Its weighted bead head allows for quick drop into the strike zone, and the size 10 profile creates a strong presence while maintaining subtle, natural coloration. This version performs well during early spring and late fall emergences when trout are hunting bigger pupae near the bottom or mid-column.
