Orange Scud

Scuds are a staple food source in estuaries and nearshore waters, and an orange version is often the trigger that brings sea-run cutthroat to hand. This pattern suggests amphipods, molting shrimp, or simply a vulnerable crustacean drifting in the current. Its curved profile and subtle flash give it a lifelike look, while the orange body provides just enough visibility to stand out in broken water. Fish it along eelgrass edges, tidal flats, and current seams where cutthroat hunt for small invertebrates.

Fish on a long 5X leader when Searun Cutthroat are being picky.
