Adams

Fly: Bob Petti, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: TMC 100BL
Thread: Gray
Tail: Mixed brown and grizzly hackle
Body: Muskrat
Wings: Grizzly Hen Hackle Tips
Hackle: Mixed brown and grizzly

Note: If you tie with saddles or your necks have had all their "spade" hackles plucked already, a good alternative for the hackle tail is moose body hair, a variation on the original pattern which I believe is called the Western Adams.
