Get your mind out of the gutter!
I'm referring to problems I've had missing far too many strikes and experiencing too many LDR's when fishing boobies deep.
They're very effective flies but I think there's sort of an intrinsic disadvantage with a bouyant fly rising off a fast sinking line on the bottom...much like a very distinct hinge where the leader connects to the line, even during retrieves. Maybe a ridiculously short leader might mitigate the issue?
Of course it could be my sloth-like reflexes.
