Default Chinook Fly

Just curious, what is your favorite coastal river chinook fly?


Personally, I don't leave home without a bunch of Greenbuttskunks. I also throw marabou type flies (popcicle), usually produces pretty well.

Love that marabou! My tidewater favorite, Pixie's Revenge on a double hook. Upriver, smaller marabou patterns, fly color depending upon water color.

bar none, my favorite and most productive fly, and about all I've ever used is a polar shrimp.
I've also experimented with the same pattern with some chartruese also, but the standard pattern seems to be my "go to" fly.

What is this?!

Green Butt Skunk's favorite fly is the Polar Shrimp. Is there nothing sacred in a moniker anymore?
