Pelhament 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2011 My favorite Pink Salmon fly is a Flash Fly. Pink Flashabou tail, silver mylar body, Pink Flashabou Wing. Looks just like your 2nd and 3rd fly except it uses flashabou. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BC_angler 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2011 All those look like they would work for pinks, my favorite would be the third one. I've found it best to keep pink patterns fairly sparse. One of my all time favorite pink patterns for river fishing is a small clouser tied with cherise and white bucktail, last pink season they ate them up!

River Thug 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2011 Your first one is a little more bulky than I tie for pinks but it looks great for Steelies. The other 2 are ones that I would tie myself. A simple bead head handle bar is one of the most efective flies for Pinks I have found. A size 8 or 10 Clouser in Pink/White and Green/White is also a easy and efective fly to tie. Keep tieing.

Undertow 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2011 I tie pink woolybuggers, pink marabou minnows, pink leeche patterns, all with alot of pink crystal flash. Basically anything bright pink will get them to hit, I literally caught a 150 in one day...went through almost 2 dozen flies on them. Undertow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steelie 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2011 Good Day, Nice patterns and I am sure the pink will eat 'em up! If I may... some constructive criticism... need a little work on the heads and the rear of the last pattern. The fish won't mind, but your flies might last longer too. Hope I wasn't too brutal... keep it up! Steelie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
