I met up last year with Tube Dude. I am not sure exactly where we launched, but I am thinking Lindon Bay. The water in the bay was like 4' to 5' deep. I saw something float and I thought is was driftwood. I motored over to it as I collect some driftwood to display my flies on.
Got over and realized it was about 10 good sized carp rolling around.
I had a bead head prince #12 on my Intermediate line, so I cast over the top and stripped back. One hit so hard it scared me and I lost it, so I cast again...this time I was ready. I landed three doing that. Later I threw out the Beadhead Prince on a type II into the weeds and HANG ON! Caught number four. These were honkers too. Fun part is I was using a Fiberglass Rod.
On the Jordan I use a Hex, which looks like a yellow stone fly in a #10.
