All Purpose Flies

Adams

tDon Baylor conducted the most informative seminar on spring creek and freestone insect life ever conducted at the Little Lehigh Fly Shop. Go to http://d-baylor-flyfish-art.com/index.htmlto acquire a video of it.

During one of the five sessions he introduced the following concept, I take no credit for it.

Don carries heavily hackled Adams in various sizes. If confronted with a Mayfly dun he can’t match he substitutes an Adams of the correct size. If the mystery bug is a spinner he trims the hackle top and bottom, WALA instant spinner. Do you wish your Adams was an emerger, trim the bottom of the hackle and smart you, you have a parachute pattern.
