Is the RS2 – Chocolate suitable for use in still waters?
It is primarily designed for technical tailwaters. Performance in still waters may vary due to different current dynamics and fish behavior.
Can the RS2 – Chocolate be used during non-hatch periods?

Alison Hamilton –
Used the RS2 – Chocolate during a midge hatch on a cold tailwater stream. The fly sat perfectly in the film and triggered multiple strikes from selective trout. Very natural movement and subtle profile made it hard to detect.
Oliver Young –
Felt like a natural emergent pattern. Worked well in a slow-moving tailwater with high trout activity. The chocolate color matched the natural hatch well and gave good action when fished with a slight drift.
Sean Forsyth –
This fly is a game-changer for tailwater fishing. I caught three trout in a single session using it during a small mayfly hatch. The minimal profile made it nearly invisible to fish.
