“A scud pattern with a bead in the middle isn’t anything new. However, when you alter the bead to a jig bomb it immediately changes the performance of the fly.

Using a technique I call “posting the bead” which secures the bead to the top of the hook shank. This ensures the fly will always ride hook point up allowing you to drift it right over rocks and logs.

Jig bombs are also heavier than countersunk or slotted beads, so they provide a faster sink rate.

This fly was specifically designed to act as the primary source of weight on a nymph rig and excels as an anchor fly on a tight line/euro system or a lead fly/attractor on a traditional indicator rig while maintaining the classic curved scud profile.

You won’t find a fly with this much weight that looks more scud-like.

It has been my go-to scud pattern for small streams, larger rivers, man-made reservoirs, and high alpine lakes.

If you aren’t a fan of using split shot this is a fly you’ve got to try.”
