Description
The Parachute ISO, designed to imitate the Isohyphes mayfly, is an effective pattern for trout feeding on Iso hatches, especially during the warmer months when these insects emerge in great numbers. This fly's parachute-style wing offers excellent visibility while providing a natural, low-floating presentation. The parachute hackle allows the fly to float with minimal drag, making it perfect for selectively feeding trout in riffles, runs, and slower pools
Pro Tip
Cross-Currents for Coverage: In faster water, present the Parachute ISO across currents rather than directly upstream. This will allow the fly to be seen by fish in different lanes and increase your chances of an active fish intercepting it as it drifts naturally.
