Description
The Adams Dry Fly, created in 1922 by Leonard Halladay in Mayfield, Michigan, is a quintessential dry fly pattern renowned for its versatility and effectiveness. Originally designed at the request of Halladay's friend, Charles Adams, to imitate a specific insect, the fly has since become a general imitation of adult mayflies, caddisflies, and midges. Its enduring popularity stems from its ability to attract trout under various conditions, making it a staple in anglers' fly boxes worldwide.
