When you toss them in the water, they'll quickly become damsels in distress.

Your fly looks "fishey" to me. What type of dubbing are you using? Maybe colored hair's ear? Zugbug.

I am positive your pattern will catch fish, and nicely done. One suggestion "in addition" try tying on a shorter hook the body and eyes, and then a longer tail (keeping the whole fly at no more than an inch long).
When they swim, their whole body wiggles. I got my pattern in Flies For The Greater Yellowstone Area, if you can find a copy. http://youtu.be/8l5qiXBKDeA [signature]

Remo,
Nice looking damsel. I would love to know where you got, or how you made the eyes. Try tying it with a thread to match the color of the eyes, and see which one fishes better. A dull orange thread has sometimes doubled my action. I keep plenty of both colors in my box. [signature]
