In this week’s episode of Tying Tuesdays, watch as Brady ties the UV2 Roe Yarn Egg! "Texas isn’t the only place that grows things large. Alaska is known for its large waterways, land mammals and of course Salmon and Trout. Big fish mean big eggs. The UV2 Roe Yarn Egg is a great large egg option when targeting large Rainbow Trout that are following Salmon runs upriver, gorging on eggs. I couldn’t think of a more appropriate fly to spin up riverside in Alaska. This bug is especially great for on-location tying due to its simplicity. UV2 has created a material that doesn’t require much else to be effective. Palmer some hooks in a variety of colors for a killer attractor egg pattern."
