RS2 Fly Pattern




(Photo courtesy of Fly Anglers Online (FAOL))

This is one of the Munn Lake recommended flies. It is a great fly and super simple to tie. I personally also substitute CDC for the
Bright white Antron wing to have two variants in the fly box.

Here is a great tying tutorial for this pattern.

Take note of how the tippets used for the tail are split with the tag end of the tying thread. I learned this a few years ago and use this method for this type of tail all the time now - works awesome!!

Here's the history on this fly, it's a great informative website on the varieties of this fly.
