The Window Tint Pupa-Excellent Chironomid Pattern


Window Tint Pupa

Hook: Daiichi 1760 size 12-16
Thread: Colour to match desired body colour (black, red, wine0 and burnt orange/rusty brown collar
Gills: Uni  Floss or Uni Stretch
Bead: 3/32nd for size 14, 7/64ths for size 12
Rib: Window Tint 0.75 mm

The Window Tint Pupa is an excellent chironomid pattern. I like to tie them from size 12-16. When the chironomids are quite "gas" like as they emerge, this pattern is so effective. Better yet, it is an easy tie.
