Default Adams by Da

Today, I tied the classic fly pattern adams.
Here is the picture http://picasaweb.google.com/Dan.versacorp.cn/Adams
Hook: Mustad 539 12# (same as Dai-Riki 320 12#)
Thread: grey
Wing: grey hackle tips tied over the body
Tail: grey and brown hackle barbs
Hackle: grey and brown

This one is the eighth adams I tied today. I have found the wing is a
little longer. I have tried my best to use the smallest rooster neck
feather. Could you guys tell me any other things I should pay
attention to? Thanks
