You're Right on that feeling Gary! Was laughing out loud at a fly shop the other day when I saw a fly that looked nearly the same as one I had touted as my own creation! The name was different and one of the materials was different but all the same colors and basic parts were the same!
Egg on my face?...I think not!.... I'll still present mine, named for my efforts of tying! I agree whole heartedly that after the very first person fixed anything onto a hooking devise, anything and all else has to be viewed as a "variation"!!!

At least when that happens, you have an indication that you are at least
thinking in the right direction.
