The Green Para Drake is a high-riding, easy-to-spot parachute dry fly designed to imitate the large, slow-emerging green drake mayflies that hatch in late spring and early summer. This pattern captures the signature long, slender body and distinct coloration of the green drake while offering superior visibility and floatation thanks to its upright white parachute post and horizontal hackle.

Tied with a segmented olive-green body, bushy parachute hackle, and splayed tail fibers, the Green Para Drake presents a realistic silhouette and delicate footprint on the water—ideal for fooling selective trout during heavy drake hatches. The parachute hackle allows for improved floatation in rougher riffles and easier tracking through swirling currents, making it a go-to pattern when fish are rising aggressively during mayfly activity.

Fish the Green Para Drake with a dead-drift presentation during peak hatch windows—typically late afternoon through evening—or use it as a lead dry in a dry-dropper rig with a small emerger or nymph below. It excels on western rivers, freestone streams, and larger tailwaters during green drake season, but it's also effective wherever large mayflies are present.
