The Scud Back holds up well in the water and gives a very natural look when tied into shrimp patterns. It’s easy to work with and stays flexible even after being submerged.

I’ve used it in several scud patterns and it performs well in the field. The texture matches real insects and makes my flies look more realistic.

Great material for bug bodies. It’s durable and doesn’t fray easily. I’ve tied multiple patterns with it and they’ve fished well in streams.
