Notes:

The Pink Thing Fly was developed by Graham White from Darwin in the Northern Territory back in the 80’s based on the Whistler Fly Pattern. While the Pink Thing is a subsurface fly with either bead chain eyes or with dumbbell eyes; I felt that a Pink Thing could be incorporated into a popper or even a slider for my upcoming trip to Osceola Outback Adventures in Florida since some of the videos that I watched showed a lot of action on top water lures.
