I switched to a Dai Riki 135 scud hook a few years ago; works well for me.

Hi gerri,
Here's quite a bit of info on it. He updated it also since this post, which they have pinned at the top of the tying forum there useing tungsten pink beads to sink it better. Here's the link. http://www.flyanglers.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17347

Mark,
Makes sense to use a bead (I'd sub an orange one for the dubbed "belly") since I always fished them with split shot anyway.
