Official announcement for our "Scud Swap." No, we're not talking Iraqi missiles - we're talking about an insect that according to Ian James, if you want to be a successful angler, you'll want to "get up close and personal with."

All Hook-Point-Up (HPU) patterns have three components. First, lead or brass eyes placed below the hook-eye. Second, some sort of tying material such as deer hair, feathers, fur, or hanked material tied in above the hook-eye. Third, a sturdy and often large streamer hook. Fox Statler tells us more. "Be a Bite fisherman. Use whatever fly that is needed to get the Bites." By Fox Statler.
