Field Notes

A weighted scud pattern for fishing subsurface in streams, rivers, and stillwaters where trout feed on freshwater crustaceans. Drift it dead-drift under an indicator or as part of a nymph rig near the bottom, especially in slower seams and along weed edges.

Pros

  • Weighted body helps it get down quickly
  • Realistic scud profile
  • Good imitation for trout feeding on crustaceans

Cons

  • Small profile can be hard to see
  • Best used with a proper nymphing setup
