Video: How to Tie a Tiny Parachute Adams (with a Twist!) - Orvis News
This coming Thursday we will have our monthly Fly-Tying session at the Westside Community Center, 2932 South Highway 35 Frontage Road in New Braunfels from 6-8 pm.  I’ve been hearing about success of some dry fly’s being used on the Guad recently and certainly used in other Trout fishing areas.  So, this month we will try our skills at tying a very popular dry fly the Parachute Adams.   Come out and join us.  Tie a few for yourself and a few for the monthly club meeting fly raffle.  You can bring your own tying tools and we have some available for use for those that don’t have them and the club will supply the needed tying materials.
Hope to see you then,
Gary and Jeff
