I purchased a number of flies for an upcoming trip to Patagonia. Although I have yet to use the flies, the quality appears to be excellent.

The Parachute Adams is perhaps the most important and versatile of all dry flies. It is a must have in a variety of sizes for fish all over the world. The white post gives the fly fisherman a focal point in all types of water. The pattern can be used as a mayfly or as an attractor fly. All fly fishermen should keep several sizes on the top row of their fly box.
FLY RECIPE:
HOOK: TFS 100, sizes 12-26
THREAD: Ultra 140 Tying Thread, black
TAIL: Dry Fly Hackle, grizzly & brown mixed
BODY: Super Fine Dry Fly Dubbing, adams grey or Natural Muskrat
POST: Calf Body Hair, white
HACKLE: Dry Fly Hackle, grizzly & brown mixed

Write a reviewFloats high; absorbs floatant for longer floating life; very visible even on bright days. Definitely an "attractor" pattern; I was getting hits all day.....
