RS2 (Rim's Semblance #2)

Rim Chungs RS2 pattern is an extremely effective midge and mayfly pattern. It is very versatile in that it can be fished wet as an emerger, in the surface film as an emerger and on the surface as a dry fly. Visit Rim's RS2 page for detailed tying instructions.

This fly can be tied in any color. Black, olive and gray work well on the Guadalupe River.
