Umpqua Jumbo Juju Chironimid Midge

The Jumbo Juju came into being once I realized the standard Jujubee technique would lend itself just as well to a larger Chironomid pattern.The JJJ is better and different than other Chiros in that it is much more durable (epoxy coated), has much better segmentation and has the slightest bit of flash to it. Most chiros are simple thread and wire patterns, leaving little room for expansion beyond a single basic color and a contrasting rib. The JJJ has multi-hued ribbing over a bright white underbody and a top coat of epoxy that all combine to add to the sheen and division between the colors. The epoxy coat also contributes to the gaseous bubble effect of an emerging chiro. -Words and Fly by Signature Tyer Charlie Craven
