Buck,
With me, it's always my last fly of that particular pattern or color or
whatever that's working. I rarely tie two flies the same, so when something
is working, it's a safe bet I have something maybe close, but not exact.
This has happened to me on numerous occasions. Once we were fishing for
huge rainbows at a small reservoir near here. They were turning down
everything except one tiny orange streamer, which they hit the moment it
touched the water. Four or five 18" to 22" fish later, it was in tatters.
And they wouldn't hit anything else, and about 5 guys were throwing flies at
them down the shore who got nada too.
I went home that night and tied 2 dozen of them, returned the next night.
You got it. Totally ignored. The moment was gone.

Don,
I am always happy when a trout tears up my fly. As easy as the gnat is
to tie
why would you worry about loosing it? Just thought i would throw that in
to irritate you.
