Seems like the fish there will always eat a weighted #16 dirty olive scud:

  Hook:     #16 2487BL wrapped with .015 leadfree wire
  Thread:   6/0 dark olive
  Tail:     Guard hairs from dark olive hares mask
  Rib:      Fine gold wire
  Back:     Clear scudback with several strands pearl flashabou under it
  Body:     Dubbing from dark olive hares mask, lots of guard hairs
  Antennae: Guard hairs from dark olive hares mask

This bug will take fish after fish in the fast water.  Mike is
right, the key, as with most nymphs, is keeping the fly bumping bottom.  For
the slow water areas I prefer fishing streamers (buggers, bunny leeches).
