A proven pink flats fly with a clean shrimp/crab profile and quick sink for bonefish.Artificial fly pattern (hooked lure), not live bait.A must have for the Christmas Island angler, this fly works in far more places than Christmas Island. I would love to find out all the places that it works, starting there and working my way around the globe…
The Christmas Island Special is a classic flats pattern built around one simple idea, get a small, clean profile down fast and keep it tracking right in the zone. In Pink, it becomes an easy fly to see in glare, deeper flats, or slightly off-color water, and it still keeps the sparse silhouette that helps it land and fish naturally.
This pattern is a steady producer when bonefish are keyed on small shrimp and crab-like morsels. The weighted eyes help it sink quickly and ride hook point up, which is helpful over coral, turtle grass edges, and mixed bottom where you want to reduce hang-ups. When conditions are breezy and you need a fly that turns over, gets down, and stays visible, the Pink Christmas Island Special is a reliable choice to have in the box.
Note: All flies and lures sold on this page are artificial fishing tackle. We do not sell live bait or live animals.
