{"product_id":"antonios-adult-fly","title":"Antonio's Adult Fly","description":"\u003cp\u003eAntonio's Adult is a specialized dry fly pattern designed to fool the most selective trout. It imitates a mayfly dun and comes from the world of competitive fly fishing. This pattern is a must-have for your box because it combines a realistic profile with high visibility. It targets trout in technical waters like tailwaters and spring creeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat It Imitates\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fly mimics an adult mayfly resting on the surface. It specifically matches hatches like Blue Winged Olives and Pale Morning Duns. The split wing design creates the silhouette of upright insect wings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFish this fly with a drag-free dead drift. It is designed for precise casting to rising fish. The small colored post between the wings acts as a sighter. This allows you to track the fly easily even in glare or foam lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse this pattern during mayfly hatches in the spring, summer, or fall. It excels on flat, slow-moving water where trout have time to inspect your offering. It is also a great choice for low-light conditions when tracking small flies is difficult.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe recommend this fly because it solves the visibility problem common with small dry flies. The sighter post makes it easy to see without compromising the natural look. The CDC wing lands softly on the water and moves like a real insect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntonio's Adult vs. Parachute Adams\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Parachute Adams is a general searching pattern with hackle that sits high on the water. It covers a wide range of insects but lacks specific detail. Antonio's Adult sits lower in the surface film. It offers a more realistic profile for fish that are refusing standard flies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntonio's Adult vs. Sparkle Dun\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sparkle Dun uses deer hair for the wing and floats flush with the water. It represents a dun stuck in its shuck or an emerger. Antonio's Adult uses CDC feathers for the wing. This material is softer and provides more life-like movement on the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntonio's Adult vs. CDC Comparadun\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth flies rely on CDC feathers for buoyancy and realism. The Comparadun features a fanned wing that can be hard to see at a distance. Antonio's Adult separates the wing with a bright sighter material. This small addition helps you detect subtle strikes that you might miss with the Comparadun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Umpqua","offers":[{"title":"BWO \/ 15","offer_id":48477457088745,"sku":"SKU052857279245-SM052","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BWO \/ 17","offer_id":48477457154281,"sku":"SKU052857279252-SM060","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BWO \/ 19","offer_id":48477457219817,"sku":"SKU052857279269-SM061","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BWO \/ 21","offer_id":48477457285353,"sku":"SKU052857279276-SM054","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"March Brown \/ 10","offer_id":48477456990441,"sku":"SKU052857279283-SM037","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"March Brown \/ 12","offer_id":48477457023209,"sku":"SKU052857279290-SM053","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"March Brown \/ 14","offer_id":48477457055977,"sku":"SKU052857279306-SM032","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"PMD \/ 15","offer_id":48477457121513,"sku":"SKU052857279313-SM050","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"PMD \/ 17","offer_id":48477457187049,"sku":"SKU052857279320-SM044","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"PMD \/ 19","offer_id":48477457252585,"sku":"SKU052857279337-SM049","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"PMD \/ 21","offer_id":48477457318121,"sku":"SKU052857279344-SM002","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/1846\/1673\/files\/umpqua-flies-antonio-s-adult-fly-1199967428.jpg?v=1761948365","url":"https:\/\/www.tridentflyfishing.com\/products\/antonios-adult-fly","provider":"Trident Fly Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
