Parachute orange fly

Description

The Parachute Orange Hopper is a modern variation of the classic hopper fly, a fly pattern designed to imitate grasshoppers, a favorite meal for many fish species during the warmer months. While the exact origins of this specific pattern are unclear, its development likely stems from the evolution of fly tying techniques and materials.

Parachute flies, in general, are known for their high visibility and superior floatation, thanks to the distinctive parachute hackle that keeps the fly upright on the water’s surface. This makes them easier to track for anglers and more enticing for fish.

The Parachute Orange Hopper fly specifically incorporates a bright orange body, often made of foam or yarn, to further enhance its visibility and attract fish. The bright color mimics the natural hues of many grasshoppers and stimulates a feeding response in fish.

This fishing fly is particularly effective for targeting trout, as they are opportunistic feeders and readily consume grasshoppers when available. However, it can also be successful for catching other species such as bass, panfish, and even carp that might be attracted to its enticing appearance and movement.
