Jighead, Check out ColoradoFisheries.com. They should be able to help you and provide answers to your questions about scuds for trout. Please keep us advised about your progress with scuds (Gammarus lacustris). If you have a fair amount of shallow water weed beds the scuds should do quite well for you. If you have a small secluded pond with no fish in it or just minnows you could develop a population that produces a constant supply of scuds.
