Nice to have a fly with its own theme song, though Curtis Mayfield may be a little bit before your time. Big trout just love those “Goldilocks” flies.

Agree 100% on the simplicity confidence flies. I think there is a need for a fly-tying resource that focuses on the most effective fly patterns that use only 3 (maybe 4) materials, excluding hook and thread. All my confidence flies would be there, and none of them can be found commercially. One of your best bits of advice is the idea that effective
fly designs almost always get immediate, first-use eats. Found this to be golden.

Your “Secret” probably fits that bill.
