Clever idea, but....
Your sliding rig, (control fly) depending on how it lands in the water, can travel up to 60cm (worst case scenario) without registering a take.
Which means you are not in control of the flies, you do not know what the flies are doing, you don't know how many takes you could be missing etc
Setting the hook on the take of the control fly, means you have to move the mono/rod tip up to 60cm(worst case) to set the hook.
For hungry, uneducated fish, no problem but clever, fish that have lots of fishing pressure, not good.
I think back to the drawing board.
