retrocarp 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2020 You'll have to fish that scud, Retro. Let me know if it works. Yours look much better, but they say ugly flies catch fish, so if yours work ... mine should, too! Hahahaha.....Ugly is good in my books Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
