I like the even tapers and ratios you’ve got going. Nice work.
I’ve had good luck in super heavily pressured stocked waters this season with black body red wire zebra midges. Support midges 100%. I coat mine in resin for durability in super rocky waters and the sheen/texture really seems to improve my chances.
I'm not an expert but they look damn nice to me. Where I grew up the trout only hit tiny thread dots on tiny hooks. My fly tying efforts never progressed passed those 😕😬
How’d you get your pubes so shiny for that second fly? Is that how they came off of you, or is that from post-harvest processing?
Aluminum from the leftover armpit deodorant if I had to guess. OP might have a different technique
I just use very good conditioner 😂.

Found this on a fly tying forum, kudos to whoever did it.
Id fish both in a pinch
