That looks like a fish catcher to me!!
One bit of info...
If those are lead/brass dumbell eyes.
Tied on top like that can cause the fly to sort of roll over on it's side a bit as the weight of the hook bend fights the weight of the eyes. I think this is a good thing mind you as it makes the fly look crippled.
If you want the fly to ride true in the water, simply tie those eyes onto the bottom side of the hook shank.
Do we get to see the fish that things going to catch?
