Adams - Dry Fly

Adams created by Leonard Hallady.

Adams trout dry fly

The Adams dry fly, although invented in the Michigan in the early 1920's however it is still is a modern looking fly. This is a standard fly fishing fly in my fly box and has caught fish all around the world, indeed sales show it is one of the most popular flies world-wide.

Use The Adams To Catch:

	The Adams can be used to catch Cutthroat
	The Adams can be used to catch Rainbow Trout
	The Adams can be used to catch Arctic Char
	The Adams can be used to catch Brown Trout
	The Adams can be used to catch Grayling

As the name indicates dry flies which include Adams are designed to float on the surface of the water. Trout dry flies types which include Adams imitate a wide variery of flies and insects which inhabit the surface of the water. There is nothing like using dry flies and watching trout and grayling rise to the surface. To purists dry fly fishing is the true art-form of fly fishing, indeed some rivers only permit dry fly fishing. There are some dry flies (e.g. the Popper, Muddlers) which are designed to attract fish by the action of creating a surface disturbance. The flies are made from very bouyant materials (e.g, cork, ethafoam or deer hair, the latter having a generous application of floatant). A Muddler retrieved upwind of a rise can often result in a bulge in the water as the fish follows the fly.

Dry Fly Fishing Techniques With The Adams

A dry fly like Adams has flotant (Gink is the most popular) warmed in your hand and gently rubbed into the hackles to help Adams float and they are usually cast singly on a trout tapered leader. A floating line is used, but with the tapered leader de-greased so that it does not glint and flash light spooking the trout

Special Fishing Techniques with the Adams

Treat the Adams with flotant and leave it to drift on the surface. After a while pull it across the surface for a distance of about 3 feet (1 metre) to make it seem like it is accelerating prior to attempting take-off then stop the retrieve abruptly as if the fly has aborted take-off. Leave the Adams to site for a minute of so longer then move it again. This will often stimulate trout into attacking the fly

Excellent general service

Friday, 27 April 2012  |  John

Bought as one of several flies. All nicely tied. There was a problem with the order but, despite it being a relatively small issue, the company have bent over backwards to sort it out. Excellent customer service and highly recommended

Well pleased, this is an excellent representation of the Adams fly. Survey the water, see what's hatching, then stick a #16 Adams on anyway, it seems to work very effectively in bringing up the fish.
