Hi David,

I can't help you with the salt or estuary fishing, but in rivers almost any pattern in hot flouro pink works. I find the trick is to get it on the bottom. Pink Clousers, are great and I just tie up something with a flouro pink marabou tail, pink crystal chennile body, and a pink crystal flash wing on a sz2 to 6 weighted hook.

Hope this helps, Mike
