Developed by Tim Heng, previous manager of Taylor Creek Fly Shop, the BLM (Beaded Little Mayfly) is one of the most effective little mayfly/midge imitations ever. A thorax style bead with just the right amount of material - deadly.
Great early and late in the season.
The BLM was awarded the fly of the year in 2002 by Flyfisherman Magazine.
