Spirit River UV2 Scud

Spirit River UV2 Scud is a dubbing developed specifically for tying scud imitations. It forms compact, slightly irregular bodies suited to patterns fished close to the bottom. The defining feature of this series is its UV2 technology, which makes the material more visible to fish in the ultraviolet range. It is a useful choice when a scud pattern needs a substantial profile without an unnecessarily complicated construction.

Construction and use

Scud Dubbing is primarily intended for scud imitations, but it also works for short, broad nymphs with a rounded body. Build the abdomen gradually by adding small amounts to the thread, keeping the width under control as you wrap. Leave the surface relatively smooth for a neat shell-like profile, or tease it gently after wrapping when a more irregular bottom-dweller appearance is wanted.

• Purpose: Scud imitations and other full-bodied, bottom-oriented nymphs.
• Key feature: UV2 technology for increased visibility in ultraviolet light.
• Profile: A compact, rounded body suited to the shape of a scud.
• Technique: Add small pinches to the thread and control abdomen width with each wrap.
