The danica.com site of Hans Weilenmann provides a lot of inspiration and ideas for new patterns to try out, here is my Evil Eye interpretation with the materials I have available.

I like the jungle cock eyes that should make this a real eye-catcher for the trout, it is also very easy to tie up and should work in different color combinations. This is one to test out in the river when it opens for fishing again.
