One of the most common natural terrestrials, ants fall into the water regularly and trout love to eat them. Ant patterns also seem to be used less compared to other terrestrial patterns, making them even more effective on hard-fished waters.

The Parachute Ant Is one of the most effective ant patterns available. The realistic silhouette of this fly is extremely effective for selective fish and the parachute post makes this ant pattern easy to see on the water. The white parachute imitates wings making it easy to track during drifts.
