Default Bubble Midge

Sorry, but admin has asked me which account I'd like to keep. So I am having to let braveheart go and since I will no longer have control over my sbs's I have no choice but to delete them.
However these sbs's and many more are available, free, on ukflydressing and the wild fishing forums.

What colour CDC works best for these bubble flies?

I have white, a natural sort of gray colour and olive.

I have tried various colours Cerberos, but Natural Grey has been the best one.
White and Orange have also worked a few times too.

Both these two have them.
If you can afford it, buy the bulk bags, cheaper in the long run

Thanks very much - will get some CDC. Being new to this, it does seem as if CDC is some kind of 'miracle' material (natural product). It was amazing the other day when fishing on a nearby stillwater - changing from a buzzer to a CDC emerger was like chalk and cheese - the fish went nuts for the fly suddenly. Also, the whole aspect of being able to see the 'take' made things so much more enjoyable. Anyway, I'm rambling. Thanks for the retailer suggestions.
