You're not a dummy, all of us have made this kind of mistake. The fish again, won't mind. They will still chase and eat that fly because if it is swimming upside down it must be injured or dying. Further, it is definitely shiny and fish are not smart as you said at the beginning of the video. Tell Curtis he is mean for not telling you to turn the fly while he was taping. All the best and Happy New Year. Sean (you may have just created a more successful fly than you ever thought it would be.)
How the hell do they come up with these names for all these materials ? I've made knives, reloaded and this hobby seems like an endless buying cycle compared to those

Have you tried weighted beads at the articulation point? Also, why don't you put the beads down before you wrap the body?
I feel that the metal beads kind of rub on the connection wire too much.
You also want the weight to be in the front piece of the fly, to get the right "jigging" movemnet.
I'm a new tier. I've got a decent vise alredy. what you suggest to get my materials collection going.
+Curtis Fry thanks
is the bead weight tied upside down?
+firebirder94 I'm a dummy and colored it wrong. See the end of the video...

Why not do the beads first and dub over them then they are truly hidden?
+John Sexton bulks it up too much... Also, the beads give it a bit of added flash.
OK thanks. I am 71 and have be4en tying since 1965. Love it and am constantly learning. Thank you for this channel.

More like an endless creation and enjoyment cycle. That's the focus (along with the fish, of course). Thanks!
