What's the most popular fly you've never caught on...?

For me it has to be a yellow dancer, I do use lures, mostly in the winter but I have yet to catch on a dancer. Probably due to lack of confidence more than anything else though.

Woolly B***er.
Possibly because I think it is an incredibly ugly fly and hence have no confidence in it. Perhaps I fish it incorrectly and then I only give it a desultory swim when everything else has failed, so perhaps it is not surprising.

I would agree with the black pennel, yet to have a fish on it and I give it a swim fairly regularly.
