The unscientific and subjective answer- I had one summer into fall where scud patterns in general seemed to work better than any nymph in my box. Since then not so much. I still fish scuds of varying patterns and they do produce just not like they did. That said my early scuds were tied with mallard fiber antennae and tails as they are on the fly I posted. Subsequent flies I tied without the antennae and tails and they didn't seem to work as well for me. So this year the mallard tails and antennae are back and we'll see.
