Parachute Damsel

The Parachute Damsel, developed by Gary Borger and Bob Pelzl. This realistic dry pattern floats well and sits low in the water to create a silhouette fish cannot resist. This pattern works well as a Dragon fly imitation as well.

When fishing the Parachute Damsel, cast the fly near submerged vegetation or along the edges of weed beds, as these are areas where adult damsel flies are often found. A slow, steady retrieve can help mimic the natural movement of the damsel fly, increasing the likelihood of attracting trout.
