A favorite of mine. Green ( chartreuse) bodied Adams # 16. Great searcher and good when Lime Sallies are flitting about. Also good in summer; perhaps they view it as a terrestrial.
i'll second that one. Used to just call that a yellow Adams. But very effective especially early and as many have said, yellow flies work very well on the Tully for some reason.
