The Parachute Madam X (PMX) is a versatile dry fly pattern designed to imitate a wide range of adult aquatic insects, with a particular focus on providing excellent visibility and a natural presentation. The parachute design allows the fly to sit low in the water, closely mimicking the natural drift of emerging or spent insects. The Parachute X is especially effective in both calm and turbulent waters, where its stable profile and lifelike movement can entice strikes from even the most selective trout. Try this fly in various sizes to mimic everything from caddis, to stoneflies, and even terrestrials. A true classic!
