Pink Shrimp
Highly recommended for grayling.
Weighted
The pink dubbing used for this shrimp is a mixture of several carefully chosen component colours in wool, mohair, seal's fur and fluorescent synthetics. The reason is to give it the best chance of visibility under all conditions of water colour.
(See 'Colour vision in trout')
(It also applies to grayling)
On the right is a picture of one of these shrimps viewed in ultraviolet light. This illustrates that its pink colour will be visible in clear water at depths where the red light can not reach.
