Scud by Charlie Craven

[@jdigioia1130]

Thanks for sharing. Ingenious use of the Velcro! 🎉🎣

[@jeffprice4611]

Old with Swiss straw. I use to use this stuff a lot and basically forgot about it, with all the newer materials out. It definitely gives a great look.

[@bobfowler9522]

After tying for over 15 years, I can still learn a lot from your videos - thanks so much as you've made my glossary of "tricks" enormous.

[@mantismamba]

Im tying this tomorrow! I have caught so many trout on this fly. Thanks Charlie

[@duderoony]

I seriously think this is the nicest scud pattern I’ve seen so far. Thanks for uploading dude.

[@TheXeniaman]

What a great scud pattern. That Swiss straw makes for a great shell back.

[@erikeklof]

One pattern I swear by when fishing lakes. Awesome pattern that’s easy to tie and very effective! Beautiful scud right here Charlie.

[@mikekuczynski1552]

I feel much better now , these work REALLY good on the Missouri all day everyday . Thanks :-)

[@terryruby2258]

Great video Charlie. Your videos have been a lifesaver during COVID, influencing me to get back to fly tying. Thank you again.

[@garretts.2003]

I want to see that scud with some uv resin on the back. Really nice pattern. I had never heard of the scud skin you used. I'll have to order some.

[@cachi-7878]

Charlie, you’re quite a professional tyer and probably explains why I can’t get my lead wire as tangled as yours. That’s impressive! I now have something to look forward to. 🤣

[@samknape2362]

Best scud I’ve seen

[@paulbridgers3820]

All of your tying videos are great.thank you.

[@Jay-xv1jd]

Great tie keep them coming!!!

[@kellysmith4555]

I really like this one

[@TheCanary24]

So nice!

[@456fly]

thank you this looks awesome.

[@ColinPittendrigh]

Cool fly. I like your work. One or two coats of water based fabric cement (Aleene's Flexible Stretchable) makes a similar look that is soft and rubbery rather than hard. Probably doesn't matter on this fly. I think it does on bigger ones.

[@donngrimes6179]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@CharliesFlyBox]

Thanks for watching!

[@haoduong9509]

the humor made me slip about 6000 times

[@guytrout7101]

Nice.

[@jasonbolt682]

Awesome

[@barneyewing2664]

Yeah, I got the big wad, too.

[@chrisbukowski9434]

nice job

[@EscalanteFlyFlipper]

If you buy tippet from me you should use the most expensive fluorocarbon to tie this - too funny😅👍

[@seizedcarcass8440]

I like that you used mono instead of wire. Make a more translucent body

[@SuperSudoku]

Hope your summer of fishing is better than mine Charlie, stuck here in Houston

[@jacobpriest]

Chinook Whisperer stuck fishing jetties and bayous. Sounds great to me.

[@SuperSudoku]

@@jacobpriest yeah bro catching carp catfish and bass is what dreams are made of...

[@jeffnotti9932]

Real nice pattern... J

[@richardherrington2852]

Where can I buy swiss straw like you used in this video?

[@brooktroutangler5917]

olive or clear swiss straw?

[@CharliesFlyBox]

Brooktrout Angler olive is what I used here. Clear would certainly work.

[@Yowhatsupman]

LOL more sporting that way !
