With this pattern we are combining the effectiveness of the Adams pattern imitating a wide variety of Mayflies, with the most effective silhouette of a natural Mayfly.  The only problem with traditional Comparaduns is that they can be extremely difficult to see.  With this technique we have been working on with Moonlit Fly Fishing we have come up with a Comparadun that is easy to see, and extremely effective.  This pattern is going to incorporate the technique applied by Charlie Craven that will also allow for a slimmer body profile as well.  The deer hair wing will help the fly float well, while the CDC gives it the visibility to see it.
