Parasol Emergers

Anyone use these? They seems like a great idea.

I've done well with them on shallow brookie streams but brookies tend not to be picky.

I have tried them and have not received any better results than an emerger fly tied with snowshoe or CDC. The snowshoe and CDC are easier to see as well.
If I want to run a fly below the film instead of in it I just hang a fly off another fly for the desired depth, has been easier for me to adjust the depth and fly combinations.
