Stone Creek RS2 Emergers - Olive or Tan

Stone Creek™ RS2 Emerger

The Stone Creek™ RS2 Emerger is one of the most effective and widely respected technical trout patterns ever developed. Originally designed for selective tailwater trout, the RS2 has earned a reputation as a must-have fly for anglers targeting trout feeding on emerging insects just beneath the surface.

Although commonly classified as an emerger, the RS2 is an incredibly versatile pattern capable of imitating emerging mayflies, midge pupae, ascending nymphs, and crippled adults during a wide range of hatch situations. Its slim profile, sparse construction, and natural appearance make it especially effective on pressured trout in clear water and technical fisheries.

Available in Grey, Olive, and Tan, the RS2 Emerger excels in rivers, streams, spring creeks, and tailwaters where trout are focused on small emerging insects and often refuse larger or more aggressive patterns.

Whether fished beneath an indicator, in a tandem nymph rig, or suspended just below the surface film, the RS2 consistently produces fish when hatch activity is present.

Fishing Tips:
Fish just beneath the surface film during active hatches where trout are targeting emerging insects. Effective beneath a strike indicator, on a greased leader, or as part of a tandem nymph rig. A drag-free drift through feeding lanes, seams, and slow currents is often the most productive presentation.
