Description
Fly Type: This is a subsurface shrimp imitation and attractor pattern. The name refers to its key materials: CDC (Cul de Canard) feathers for lifelike movement, and the vibrant Gold and Pink colors that make it a powerful visual trigger.
Best Suited For: An excellent fly for targeting a variety of saltwater species that feed on shrimp and crustaceans. It is a go-to pattern for sea trout, striped bass, and other coastal predators.
Best Time to Fish: This fly is effective year-round. The bright colors are particularly productive in murky or off-color water and during low-light conditions like dawn and dusk, where they stand out.
Water Type: A classic saltwater fly, designed for coastal environments and brackish water.
Best Location: The CDC Gold Shrimp Pink is most effective when fished on sandy flats, in shallow lagoons, and near eelgrass beds where shrimp are a primary food source for game fish.
Other Value: The key to this fly's success is the combination of its realistic action and striking color. The CDC feathers provide a very subtle, pulsating, and lifelike movement in the water. This, along with the gold and pink colors, creates a powerful visual trigger that often provokes an aggressive strike. The best way to fish it is with a slow, short retrieve and frequent pauses to let the fly move naturally in the water column.
