carp on the fly

[gstott]

If you can find a place that has carp where people also feed ducks bread, you can use a bread imitating fly. It's really easy. Just take some white of cream colored dubbing and spin it on a dubbing loop. Wrap it up the shank and tie it off, and you have your fly. I've caught a ton of carp that way. Also, egg imitations are a good option too. You can take fish that are cruising higher in the water column if you cast well ahead of a cruising fish and time the sink so that it's right in their face when they reach it.

I need to get back into it this year, I haven't chased carp for a few years, but there are a lot of good spots up here in Cache and southeast Idaho for carp. I doubt that many people fly fish for them here.
