Notes: Lauren's Favorite is a classic pink pattern. Every flybook should carry a pink streamer pattern. When trout queue in on pink, nothing is better. This pattern is tyed with "girly" pink not "hot" pink. Pink streamers work very well in the mountain lake region. Al's friend Wally Lutz clued him into the importance of pink in streamers years ago, and this pattern is a result of his recommendations.
