What is everyone's favorite wet fly pattern? And how often, when and how do you fish it?

Now I am sure some one has tied this before.
However the inebriation is very important when tying this fly so the proportions are off and the fly looks like it has a hang over. That being said, between 5 and 7 tonight this one caught a dozen or so.
Hook - size 12 - 16 wet fly hook
Tail - something red on your desk
Body - Herl aka "Trout Crack"
Rib - copper wire
Hackle - Yellow Partridge
Thread - Orange
Booze - oh its has to be cheap - Evan helped tie this one.
The secret is not making it look good. Make it look like it is hung over yet attractive. Kinda like a hot college student on a Sunday morning in the bagel shop with cream cheese on their face and a latte to go.
