Those flies look to good to compare them with a maggot.
The first 2 look like a larvae from the cased caddis when you take em out of their "home made lil houses" ;)

No, I have not fished these yet. They are fresh off the vice, but I'm hopeful that they will catch fish. Time & testing with confirm my hopes...
