Pink Silileg Gotcha

Recommended Posts

I just posted another video. This one is a little bonefish fly tied in light pink with some hot pink legs. Not sure If I really like the hot pink, but it was a request from a guide in Hawaii who wanted a couple of them to fish.

Nice video and the colors is likely a good combination for Hawaii from what I've read about the flies popular there. I was there one time, but didn't get to fish, and only after I had returned home did I realize I could have chased some Bonefish & other species on such flies.

IMO, for most locations, where Bonefish are the primary target, pastel pink in the pattern is likely a much better choice than a real brite pink, but guess you never know until you try it. I once tied up a bunch of Gotcha's in the popular colors for a fellow who was going to the Bahamas to chase Bones, and added a few in odd colors as samples. One was all black, not a color most folks might try, but he said he actually did very well with it, so go figure. Only the fish know what they'll take, we're just guessing. laugh.png
