I’ve started to get into carp on the fly over the past couple of years. Quickly become my favorite species to target even though I’ve only caught 3. Love seeing content on them.
I’m curious about fishing for carp with my fly rod. Do they go after a moving fly? Or do you let the fly sit like you would with a spinning reel?
@@Anthony-eg7pw well carp are mainly bottom feeders. I’ve never heard of spinner fishing for carp before 😂. Maybe I’m wrong
@@Rakiway I’ve caught them on in-line spinners and curly tail grubs before but its really tricky.
Thank you Colin.
Grew up fishing the Potomac River, often targeting carp. The first time I fished for coho in Alaska I thought, "Wow! They fight like a carp."
30 years fly tying and fly fishing and I've never targeted these fish and idk why. Definitely putting it on my bucket list fish on fly this year
Any stories?
Caught a 7lber with my 5wt. So much fun!
Fresh water bone fish is what I used to call them. I fished shallow water where large schools would feed. I found if you could drop something fuzzy like a dry that would sink in front of a stationary fish odds were it would be taken. Careful casting a must! You spook one, you spook them all. Did have one take a mosquito pattern off the surface once. It was about 9+ lbs. quite the experience on a 3WT. Rod!
Catch these in Manchester , New Hampshire. Sight fishing in early am shallows in the Merrimac river. They often roll on the surface giving themselves away.
Nice video Colin 🎣. You can also use Dry Flys, when thay are feeding off the surface 😀. They can get WELL over 30lb, I think the UK 🏴 record is well over 65lb . Yes it was probably from a , stoked gravel pit lk. My P.B in 🏴 was 32lb 4oz . 8wt fly rod, & floating dog biscuit as bait 😉. You see the surface wake, as they slurp up the freebies. & WHAM 😃 , 45 minute knuckle buster battle 🙂. That big beautiful comman carp was ,in the net 🤪
👍
👍👍🎣🙂
Weighted leader? What size nymph?
Come get on some fantails with me !
Give me a good dough ball every time
I wish I could like carp, they are sooooo ugly!!!
You gotta learn to love em, they can be really beautiful!
People don’t like carp because they’re pretty, they like them because they are a widely available fish that regularly get over 20lbs
Yeah but they gotta a lotta soul
