Actually,
I think that bottom one may be a Brian Owens pattern. He is in charge of the fly fishing department at North Cove Outfitters in Old Saybrook, CT. He also originated Owens' Velvet Eel. It's a sand eel pattern made of the same velvet tubing (originated as a trim on furniture upholstery) with lead barbell eyes. It's a killer at the Cape. Works fine for me, Daignault praises it also.
