Can't go wrong with GloBug yarn in Cherise, Moss or Chartruese. Also, the pea-sized corky in pink/purple scale or lemon-lime are 'ol standbys. I like to run the above with a #1 gammy, tied with 10 or 12lb maxima UG tipped with shrimp or sandshrimp.

But, dont forget the float rod. Last year's hot set up on the Skykomish was a red/white marabou jig with sandshrimp tail. Hot pink jigs work excellent as well as my fav hotgreen/chartruese. The latter is a tough one to find. But I so happen to have a lifetime supply of them specially tied with 2x hooks for them dawgs. Hawk, email me if you want to test a few while you're out here.
