Green Drake Parawulff Dry Fly
This pattern transforms the famous Wulff design into a Parachute Dry for the prolific Green Drake hatch.
|
This is the Jack Dennis ParaWulff pattern tied to imitate the famous Mayfly the Eastern Green Drake. Scientifically this is the Family: Ephemeridae, Genus Ephemera, Species: guttulata that produces superhatches in coldwater streams and rivers of the East and Midwest. The Superhatch status is given to this aquatic insect based on the density and magnitude of their hatch and subsequent spinner falls during peak hatch activity periods. In their season, Green Drakes hatch almost daily with Superhatches being produced during prolonged periods of warm weather from late May on through mid-June. Hatch activity usually takes place around dusk and continues on for an hour more into the early evening with duns preferring to hatch over stretches of slow to moderate flowing water. During very cool and overcast days hatch activity can begin much earlier from mid-afternoon on creating an ideal situation for the angler. The ParaWulff is a very high floating visible pattern. It is a good choice for low light conditions as well as for heavy or big water. Even though this pattern is tied to match a specific aquatic insect the ParaWulff design gives it double-duty status as a searcher pattern.
