Years ago, shortly after I moved to Georgia a friend and I attended a "seminar" for lack of a better word about trout fishing with a short session on fly tying. The gentleman leading the session on fly tying pointed out the goal of tying a fly was to make it look like an insect, small fish, etc., not someone elses fly. I think this is often forgotten in our efforts. Of course, then there are attractors which do not look like any insect or fish but do attract attention and get eaten.
