This fly tying tutorial gives you the steps and materials for tying a parachute Adams dry fly (original created by Leonard Halladay), with a hi-visibility post tied of Antron / Zelon.  This is a great tie for the intermediate fly tyer, though a great transition tie for those at the beginning stage.  This pattern can imitate various insects on the water, including the BWO (blue-winged olive), Hendrickson, and dark cahill.  In smaller sizes, this can also be a great pattern when tricos are on the water.
