I have tried Chartreuse, but nothing like the Pink. I am thinking a RED or ORANGE might do well.
The Pink just works so well, I don't really experiment too much.
I was thinking the same thing, about pan fish. With a bigger hook size. Haven't tried it yet though.

I just tied a few up this morning and went to a local lake. I had trouble keeping the blue gills off it. can't wait to try it out on trout. thanks for posting it Flygoddess.
looks just like a red-butt soft hackle i tie! but i think pink would work well also!
