The Fluff Top Mayfly is a pattern with a great profile in the water. The CDC Parachute technique is a fun way to utilize the Smhaen Thread Splitter, resulting in a high floating quick tie. The featured color screams SOUTH FORK RIFFLE BUG! So make sure to have a few in your box come July. Pro tip: Use Parapost Yarn in Fl. Pink for a Hi Viz version.
