Parachute Adams
Parachute Fishing Flies – Visible, Versatile and Deadly for Trout
Parachute flies are a modern twist on the classic dry fly, designed to give anglers both visibility and natural presentation. The upright parachute post makes them easy to follow on the water, while the horizontal hackle allows the body to sit naturally in the surface film where trout and grayling expect to see emerging insects.
Our range includes proven patterns such as the Parachute Adams, Parachute Cahill and Parachute Royal Coachman all tied on quality hooks with durable hackle. These are some of the most reliable dry flies for rivers, streams and stillwaters across the UK.
Available Sizes
14, 16, 18
Why Choose Parachute Flies?
- Highly visible post for easy strike detection
- Natural drift that fools selective trout
- Works in rivers, streams and lakes across the UK
- Perfect for dropper rigs with a nymph
Popular Patterns Available
- Parachute Adams – versatile all rounder for many hatches
- Parachute Cahill – ideal for pale mayfly imitations
- Parachute Royal Coachman – a classic attractor with modern performance
Fishing Tip
Try suspending a small nymph from the bend of your parachute fly hook. This two fly setup lets you cover both surface feeders and fish holding just below the film.
FAQs
