- Sizes
- #12–#18

- mayfly nymphs · scuds
A Czech-style Pheasant Tail variation tied on a curved scud hook with a pronounced hump-back profile. The exaggerated shape and heavy bead get it into the feeding zone fast, and the curved body imitates the natural posture of drifting mayfly and scud nymphs.
