How to tie the Biot Parachute | Dry Fly Fishing | AvidMax Fly Tying Tuesday Tutorials

In this week’s episode of Tying Tuesdays, watch as Brady ties the Biot Parachute!
When you want a dry fly that has a little more pizazz to it than a traditional parachute pattern you add biots. Not only does this provide a super elegant finished fly but it offers some aspects that you don't get from a dubbed body. With a biot abdomen you end up with a perfectly segmented smooth body.
This allows for less weight and a fly that can slip slightly below the surface tension while fished. Change up your color and size to match a wide array of mayflies, midges and small stoneflies. Depending on what size and color you tie will also determine how you fish it. Smaller sizes are fished best behind a larger dry or small indicator to help pick up on those subtle strikes.

Hey tip for future videos, which are all great, tip: wear a contrasting t-shirt for the background to the tying material. (tan shirt and tan materials). Thanks for fixing the SAVE option that KZbin created.

with all the trouble the hackle is giving you I think I would have tied in the biot first.
