Show Notes

There's no such thing as a "magic fly" that works 100% of the time. BUT - the Adams dry fly might be the closest we'll ever get to that kind of silver bullet.

So, what is it about the Adams that makes this fly so effective? It's been around for over 100 yeaers, and anglers today love it as much as they did back in 1922.

This week on Untangled, you'll learn all about how the Adams was developed, how it's changed over the years, and why it's still such an effective fly.

You'll also learn about:

  • What makes a fly rod good for throwing dry flies
  • How to tie flies so that your materials stay on the top of the hook
  • Whether your flies need to be "Instagram-perfect" in order for fish to eat them
