@@Jnf458 I go to target carp at this spot. I carry a bass rod with me because there are bass in the creek as well. There are places I go where I will carry the fly rod if I happen to see carp feeding while targeting other fish species.
@@gregcraycroft2342 got it , yeah there are carp in a local river by me along with bass walleye and pike, i should just go out with my 6 wt , to cover all. I have carp flies just never have thrown. The fight looked awesome. How do you carry multiple rods when wading ? Anyway thanks for the awesome footage
@@Jnf458 A 6wt is perfect for carp. I am usually a little under gunned with a 4wt, but I just like the challenge. I carry a pack with me and just strap the extra rod to it. I think they make belts that would hold rods for you. Appreciate the feedback, thanks! More videos to come!
@@justblazin6309 The fly line is Scientific Angler 4wt, I don't remember the model. I use 10lb Stren Florocast for my tippit. It is not a fly fishing specific tippit. Its usually 2ft or so long. The whole leader is around 7-8ft. Good luck!
I have used the seaguar (in the spinning section, red box) and yo zuri brand fluoro for my last two sections for years. both good fluoro. I use maxima for the rear two sections.
There are lots of carp near me , been saying for years I’m going to target them. That fight looked awesome!
@Jnf458 Its so much fun! Go give them a try. The fight is worth it!
@@gregcraycroft2342 do you go out and target them , or just maybe try and catch one if you happen to see one ?

That boy did not want to be caught, good fight
Thanks! They are crazy strong
looking to get into this myself. what backing and fly line do you use? and just regular 10 lb flouro or do you go for a fly fishing specialty
and how long of a leader do you run?
