Just like the regular Adams, if you want to hook-up, as opposed to just fish, you will need this fly more sooner than later. You will need this fly from desert streams to high mountain lakes. You will need this fly because it represents a hatching Mayfly well and when Mayflies are hatching, fish can become very selective. Hatching Mayflies (at least most of them) sit on top of the water for a minute or so depending on the temperature to dry their new wings before they can fly away and do their thing. The Parachute Adams looks just like a hatching Mayfly (as opposed to an ovipositing Mayfly when you need the regular Adams) sitting on the surface drying its wings to a fish. Often, a regular Adams just won't do during a hatch. I have been fishing with my dad when he has used a Parachute Adams during a hatch and I have used a regular Adams--I either did not hook-up at all, or he hooked-up ten times as often as I. I have also thrown every other fly in my box at the fish during a Mayfly hatch, flies that worked well a half hour earlier, before the hatch, while my dad used the Parachute Adams and outscored me 50 to none. You will need this fly. You will need this fly in all sizes. Some Mayflies can be big and the micros can represent some midges. You will especially need this fly in #18 during a Blue Winged Olive Mayfly hatch.

If you interviewed the local trout about this fly they would say something like "I really had no idea. I thought that a fly had landed on the water, so I ate it. Next thing I knew this guy in strange pants was pulling me out of the water with an evil grin on his face. While I was impressed with his trickery, it made me very late for a meeting at work so I was rather upset. As a fish I would not endorse this product, it is cruel and dishonest."
