P.M.D Comparadun

The *PMD Comparadun* is a dry fly pattern designed to imitate the Pale Morning Dun (PMD) mayfly. It’s known for its effectiveness in fooling trout during PMD hatches, especially when the fish are picky and only feeding on the most realistic-looking flies.

*Key features:*

* *Pale body:* The body is typically tied with a pale or tan dubbing or thread, matching the natural color of the PMD’s body.
* *Deer hair wings:* The wings are made from deer hair, splayed outward to create a buoyant and lifelike profile.
* *Outrigger tails:* These tails extend from the rear of the hook, helping to distribute the fly’s weight and improve its stability on the water.
* *Compact profile:* The PMD Comparadun’s compact design allows it to sit low on the water’s surface, mimicking the natural resting position of a PMD.

This pattern is particularly effective during PMD hatches, especially when the fish are rising to the surface to feed on emerging mayflies. The PMD Comparadun’s combination of floatability, durability, and natural appearance make it a go-to choice for many fly fishermen targeting trout during PMD hatches.
