I will usually use 12 or 14, but occasionally I will throw on a 10 or 16 and let it have some of the fun. Ok, usually that happens when I am out of 12 and 14s, because I tied three and that ought to be enough for this trip you know.

I have tried the scud option as a stand-alone fly and came up empty so far. I have yet to give it a go as a dropper, however, so I still have some level of belief in Jim's methods.
