Description

The BWO Parachute Quill Body is a refined dry fly pattern that imitates the Blue Wing Olive (Baetis) mayflies—one of the most common and reliable trout hatches. This fly combines a realistic quill-wrapped body with the buoyancy and visibility of a parachute hackle, making it both effective and easy to track on the water.

The quill body creates a slim, segmented profile that perfectly mirrors the natural look of a Baetis dun. The parachute post ensures the fly floats flush in the surface film, a position that matches emerging or freshly hatched BWOs. The upright post also improves visibility for anglers in low light or glare, while the hackle provides balance and floatation in riffled currents.

The BWO Parachute Quill Body excels during cloudy days and cooler months when Blue Wing Olives are most active, though it remains effective year-round on rivers, tailwaters, and spring creeks. Fish it on light tippet with a drag-free drift to target selective trout feeding during BWO hatches. Its combination of realism and performance makes it a must-have for anglers fishing technical waters.
