Tucker Scud Fly Tying Instructions by Charlie Craven

[@MrTonkacat]

I remember Mike Tucker, my friend Tony Benavides tied for him and told me hilarious stories about Mike having road kill in his basement, muskrats, birds, ect...Tony RIP also tied for Larry Walker

Tak Scud du ha! Your da KING!

Mr. Tucker was very influential because I think Shane Stalcup's hydro caddis is based on this weave. Beautiful fly

Holy crap Chali! You showed me this pattern at the Red House circa 1999. Banger...still.

Nice. We've got an overcast day here in CT with some light showers and temperatures in the 50s. I'm sitting in my car with my iPad watching this, channeling Jack Gartside, and tying some BWOs. It's that kind of day, I think. Up on the West Branch of the Farmington. Hope to have a great day.

Thank you for sharing that. It's a neat technique braiding them together. I haven't worked with any tubes, so that's something I can look more into and expand my knowledge. All the best to you guys.
