SCUD, LATEX

 Hook:  (T) 2487  
 Size:  10-18
 Thread:  Cream 8/0
 Tail:  Cream Soft Hackle
 Body:  Red Fox Squirrel Dubbing

Notes on tying:

1. Wrap lead wire on hook.
2. Tie in hackle fibers for tail.
3. Dub body with red fox squirrel with the guard hairs.
4. Tie in latex strip for shell back at the head of fly and pull back over back of the body let extend 1/8 inch past the end of the fly.
5. Rib body with cream thread.
8. Finish head.

 This is a pattern works well in Spring Branch and other small streams for trout.  This is weighted and fished dead drift near the bottom.
