Adam's Trico Spinner Dry Fly
Tiny Mayfly Imitator for Selective Trout
The Adam’s Trico Spinner Dry Fly features an olive spinner profile that mimics spent gray mayflies and similar aquatic insects. These tiny insects—especially during spinner falls—offer easy meals for trout and other species, making this fly an effective and often irresistible pattern .
Trico mayflies, known as Tricorythodes, hatch in dense swarms from mid-summer to early fall across the U.S., especially in cold rivers and tailwaters. The Adam’s Trico Spinner imitates these delicate insects in their post-hatch, “spent” stage, making it a top choice during calm water spinner falls when trout feed selectively.
