Description
The Adam's is a classic pattern that continues to be one of the most popular and effective flies around. As John Gierach wrote, "By being drab, buggy, and nondescript it looks a little like everything without looking like anything in particular."
The Adam's mimics a variety of midges along with mosquitoes, mayflies and even some terrestrials. It also works as a general attractor and prospecting fly. There is a reason this fly has been around so long. It catches fish.
