Ha! My thought exactly! I like a bright pink synthetic dubbing rather than chenille for the thorax. I go traditional otherwise with darkish/reddish squirrel for the body (but dark hare's ear works just as well) and a scud hook.
My other thought is Walter Weise's GFA Hopper. Easy to tie, big to see.
A pink squirrel trailing a GFA Hopper is my favorite set up this time of year for panfish.
