Adams Parachute Assortment 1 Dozen Trout Fishing Flies ,Gold

Great assortment of dry Adams that will cover early and later hatches

Came 1 day early they are nicely tied not like the mass produced garbage other companies sell. I recommend buying them, they float good in the water and the trout love them. Great product!

I've been going through a lot of flies this summer and have had the opportunity to use several batches of these flies in different patterns. These have been getting the job done just fine. The patterns are good, the materials are correct, the hooks are acceptable. A bit of glue sealing the eyelets now and again, but that's easy to clear with another hook or eyelet tool. They hold up pretty well to multiple catches, although they eventually start failing and unraveling at the eyelet, as any fly will eventually. Perhaps a little sooner than the flies I buy at my local shop, but also 1/2 or 1/4 the price. So, if you're fishing snaggy or brushy areas or using really light tippet where you might lose a few flies, a dozen of these in your box will give you the confidence to make that impossible long cast over the log and up against the bank with maybe just enough room for your back cast. What's the worst that can happen, you lose a $.75 fly? Go for it, fish slayer.

At $9 for a dozen flies, my expectations were low. Bought 5 different patterns and 4 were incredible value. Only the Elk Hare Caddis Brown were dissapointing (inconsistent from fly to fly and not like the picture at all). Already caught 10+ smallmouth on theses Parachutte Adams and confident they will work well for trout too. Note the hook sizes range from 12-18...half the flies you get are size 16/18 which are tiny and I probably won't use, but Im still happy with 6 flies for this price.

While these may not be the best looking flies I've ever seen they definitely look good enough to catch fish. I have had luck with worse. I received my assorted mix in a little paper box that kept them from being crushed. For the price I would probably buy them again

Haven't fished these yet--rating them just OK. Will revise if fish like them better than I do. Parachute Adams is my go-to dry here in western CO. Used to tie them before my fingers got too stiff. Have bought a ton of them from local shops. Vs. fly shop flies, the hackle is very soft and sparse. The flies were packaged in a very small ziplock bag--resulted in the hackle being squashed flat and parallel to the body. Going to try some steam to see if I can restore the shape. I think with enough floatant they will float--just won't have the "bug-leg" look in the surface film that the parachute style hackle is supposed to give the fly. Got some "Wetfly" Parachute Adams on the same order to compare quality. The "Wetfly" Adams were packaged loose in a small box so the hackles weren't crushed. Hackles and the upright white calf hair wing were very high quality. I didn't understand the "Wetfly" part of the name, realized its the name of the company, not a description of the fly. I'll review those after I've fished them.

Looks like I received sizes 12-18, three of each size. Well tied and symmetrical. They were packed in a small rigid cardboard box so not damaged upon arrival (plastic case in photo not included). Each is unique in it's own way which gives me a nice variety of color. Adams flies are universal and the trout seem to love them here in PA, even when they aren't hitting anything else. I may try the larger flies as an indicator with a hares ear dropper.

Want catch fish? Say no more.
