Just use 1/2 inch of bright woollen yarn tied on to the tippet.

All you need is a short (1/2" - 5/8") piece of red wool. Red so you can see it easier and not too long so it doesn't get caught in the grass.
If practising on water you'll learn to laugh when a trout rises to your wool, but not to your perfectly crafted dry fly.

Sorry Dartmoor, just noticed you'd beaten me to it.
