I've used the turle knot successfully for skating steelhead flys using larger (0x-2x) tippets especially for up eye hooks. in this case there is a difference in fly action. up eyed hooks will pull the nose of the skating fly into the water.

I can't say about fly fishing but there's a lot of feed lots in Kansas.
