Pink Lady

[wingman]

Another traditional fly, the pink lady can also be tied as a dryfly, mine could do with the wings being slightly lighter in colour, but then this is my verson of it. Looks like it could be quite an effective fly, never tried it before. Tied on a kamasan B175 size 12.

Thanks alot MD, I used to be frustrated tying wings but stick with it one day it'll just click, the trick is trying to remember exactly what you did to get it right.

Another I have not heard of... Nice work Mark
Not sure if I have ever seen anyone using pink over here for trout, might have to give it a try some day.

Another very nice tying Mark.
Pink is supposed well in the evenings /sunsets.

Nice fly, Mark. One I enjoy tying. Is this fly any good for brownies? Thought the colouring might attract some nice browns.
