Antonio's Adult Mayfly

The Antonio's Adult, designed by Umpqua Signature Tyer Antonio Rodrigues, is a beautifully crafted dry fly that imitates an adult mayfly. Tied on a straight hook with a CDC split wing, this fly excels at replicating the delicate nature of a mayfly’s adult stage. The use of a squirrel body and CDL (Coq de Leon) tail enhances its realism, creating a lifelike silhouette that floats high on the water and is easy for anglers to see. The fly's soft landing and high-floating profile make it ideal for situations where delicate presentations are required. Fish consistently take this fly as a natural.

Focus on Delicate Casts: Antonio's Adult is designed to land softly on the water. To maximize its effectiveness, use gentle casting techniques such as high-sticking or a roll cast to avoid splashing the fly. The softer the landing, the more natural it will appear to fish.
