Parachute Adams

Fly: Troy Allgood, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: Standard dry fly
Thread: Grey 6/0
Shuck: Rusty dubbing tied as a trailing shuck
Body: Grey/olive dubbing
Wing post: White turkey flat
Hackle: Grizzly, wound parachute style

Note: Here again is a great pattern that I’ve fiddled with. I like the gray-olive body, and the trailing shuck because it seems like most fish want an emerger. I carry it in size 12 down to a 22.
