PMD Parachute | PMD Parachute |  This weeks fly of the week is a very simple yet very outstanding pattern that accounts for a lot of fish and some big fish every year. It is a PMD Parachute. PMD's are great for a couple of reasons; one is tha fact that the hatches are usually good and the fish will eat the flies readily. The other reason is the fast that you can see the bugs ion the water. They standout very well. One nice thing aobut this pattern is that it can be fish as either a dun or a spinner depending on what stage of the hatch you are fishing. These flies are great and fishing them is very fun so give it a try.
