{"product_id":"scud-olive-1","title":"Scud - Olive","description":"\u003ch2\u003eScud – Olive\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Scud is one of the most important and productive nymph patterns for spring creeks, tailwaters, and stillwaters — a precise imitation of the freshwater shrimp (Gammarus) that trout feed on heavily wherever they are present. Scuds are a high-protein, year-round food source that trout rarely refuse, and in waters where they are abundant, they can make up a significant portion of the trout’s diet. The olive variation is the most natural and widely applicable color, closely matching the coloration of scuds found in most spring creeks and tailwaters. Its curved, shrimp-like profile and soft dubbing body create a precise, lifelike imitation that selective trout find irresistible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePattern Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freshwater shrimp imitation \/ scud pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Olive dubbing — curved, shrimp-like profile that closely imitates the natural coloration of freshwater scuds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest water:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring creeks, tailwaters, and stillwaters — wherever freshwater shrimp are present; especially productive in weedy, alkaline waters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTarget species:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechniques:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dead-drifted along the bottom under an indicator through feeding lanes; slow-retrieved through stillwaters near weed beds; effective as a dropper behind a dry fly or heavier anchor nymph\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16, 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eA high-protein trout food that fish rarely refuse — the Olive Scud delivers the precise, curved profile and natural coloration that selective spring creek and tailwater trout key on throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pursuit FlyWorX","offers":[{"title":"16","offer_id":67767042769200,"sku":"3094X","price":1.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18","offer_id":67767042801968,"sku":"3095X","price":1.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0436\/8767\/4012\/files\/IMG-3712.jpg?v=1789049248","url":"https:\/\/nativesflyfishing.com\/products\/scud-olive-1","provider":"Natives Fly Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
