With this being more of an attractor pattern than anything, feel free to add materials as you like. One thing that might be a good idea for a more buggy fly is to add a soft hackle around the collar using CDC or partridge. You can get pink CDC feathers so this might go with the original recipe better. Add rubber legs for some additional movement for this nymph!
This is a great attractor pattern to use as a lead fly for an indicator rig while fishing for migratory fish. The pink color also allows this fly to be a little bit egg looking, which really gets the attention of those migrators. Tie this in smaller sizes for trout and larger sizes for steelhead salmon and kokanee!
Fish this as the lead fly on an indicator rig, or as the point fly on a euro nymph rig. Allow this fly plenty of line and time to get to the very bottom where the water flow is a little slower and the majority of fish are going to be in the spring time.
