Gibsons Parachute Emerger Brown

ID: bg09

Tied in both brown and olive this is a deadly fly during a dun hatch. It is easy to see and works well all day during the mayfly season. Many fussy trout have been undone with this pattern. Apply floatant to the ball and hackle only.

Gibson Parachute Black Spinner

ID: bg28

These spinner patterns were originally tied for the Western Lakes area but will work anywhere.

Adams Para (Bruce Gibson tied)

ID: bgp12

An effective pattern for slower moving low country South Island (NZ) rivers especially the Mataura. Try letting the thorax of the fly break through the skin of the water surface by only applying folatant to hackle and tail. This is a good method of dealing with trout that are feeding on emerging duns. Other Adams patterns are; Hairwing Adams (D60) and Adams Irresistible (D12) under the Wulffs, Humpys & Hairwings heading.
