The Pink Thing is the greatest Barramundi fly of them all and one of the most famous saltwater flies. This pattern was developed by Australian angler, Graham White.

It is a highly effective fly pattern designed for redfish fishing, especially in stained or murky waters. It features a bright pink color, often with silver or pearl accents, mimicking a small baitfish or crustacean. The body is made from durable synthetic materials like EP fibers or craft fur, providing lively movement in the water. A weighted head, usually with bead chain or lead eyes, allows the fly to sink and creates a jigging motion during retrieval.

This pattern is ideal for shallow coastal waters, marshes, and estuaries, and it's most effective with a slow, steady retrieve combined with sharp twitches. Versatile in nature, the Pink Thing is not only great for redfish but also for targeting other saltwater species attracted to its vibrant appearance and movement.
