I tried to tie the best known and what seemed to me the most innovative, such as the Thorax by the great Vincent Marinaro.
I tried fishing all the flies that I tied, so when I used the Thorax by Marinaro, I realized that the fibers of rooster hackle, wrapped cross to eight between the wings, did not maintain long-tilt due at the intersection of the hackle turns.
After designing my parachute, I remembered the Thorax fly and thought that two strips of foam, opposite mounted on the hook, would force the coils of the rooster hackle to keep the angle at 45 ° hypothesized by Vincent Marinaro.
The strips of foam, mounted on the hook, have took the form of an X, which served to keep stable the angle of rooster coils.
