  1. Thanks for all the helpful comments and tips, folks! That pic in the thread above is the little rascal: triangular wing shape and rose pink in color, although some of the moths fade to a light pink. Never thought about a foam body and pinkish deer hair; good idea to try. Don't know the fly shop in Boone (unfamiliar territory to me). Or the name of the fly at the time. My friend fished this fly a lot with good results on browns, generally after it gets water-logged and starts to sink. He bought the fly on a whim, fished it a lot, then lost it. Upon return to the shop they said all gone and didn't know where it came from; maybe a local tie. His pattern was tied with light pink hen saddle feather with the wings spread in the "spent" position. #16 hook. Thanks again!
  2. Hey Everyone, I have a buddy in Boone, NC, who has fished a very small pink moth pattern with good results on New River. Unfortunately, he can't get them any longer at his fly shop. We believe it imitates the Southern Pink Moth which apparently has a wing span of 1/2 to 5/8 inch in life. Does anyone know this fly? If so, please share or point me to a pattern. Many thanks, Dan
