Description

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.
