Default Game Fair flies

I spent most of Friday morning in the fishing section at the game fair sorting out the bits and pieces I needed for my fly tying, had a play around with some of the stuff this morning and here are the results.

I doubt you'd need to improve them much-add a few variations, but they should fish well as they are.

Results of todays dunking
Had 3 trout on the Black emerger (6) but then I was confident in this fly because I use a version thats tied with natural Deer Hair.

After 2 fish I tried the blue Damsel (1) and whilst I got a lot of interest in it I could not hook any of them , I was getting boils, rises and tugs but couldn't get a solid take so its one to experiment with, I then tried the Olive version(2) and it was the complete opposite no interest at all.
Didn't get a chance to try the other 3 but will next time
