“pink streamers” for pacific salmon

[Rob Snowhite]

I was told to tie ‘pink streamers’ for pacific salmon this coming weekend in Seattle (Pike market area + Edmonds)

I was not given much more info than that.
Other than some comets, egg sucking leach, and some bunny strip flies, I’m not sure what to tie.

Any insight?

I know in Alaska we used pink Clousers for, you guessed it, pink salmon.

i’ve been tying up a pile of random patterns.
tied a popsicle style fly for the first time/palmered marabou.
quite the pretty pattern though the marabou made a mess in our house (tying table is momentarily the computer desk)

i found a box of salmon patterns i tied probably in 2001 that have all sorts of purple, pink, chartruse, fushia (sp?) feathers, rabbit strips, cones, and rubber tails and legs. the fly box looks like clown vomit.

i used to have pink bucktail to tie clousers-it is now where to be found. (i blame the wife)

i’ll try to take pics of them all for this or a post report thread.
