Field Notes

A buoyant dry fly for presenting to rising trout when mayflies are hatching. Fish it dead-drift on calm water or in gentle current, using the hi-vis post to track the fly easily. The parachute style sits low and delicately, making it a good choice for selective fish.

Pros

  • Very visible on the water
  • Floats well and sits naturally
  • Good for delicate dry-fly presentations

Cons

  • Small size can be hard to cast and see in rough water
  • Best when fish are feeding on the surface
