[font "Poor Richard"][#008000][size 3]I have never fly fished for carp, but from what I understand they will take just about any kind of fly. Like bonefish, carp are eating whatever organisms they find on or scare up from the bottom. And like bonefish, when they take your fly expect a long hard run that may take you into your backing. Cabelas sell a carp fly kit which might give you some ideas. Just click on Shopping in the above tool bar then Cabelas. Some folks swear by a Mulberry Prince fly. Sometimes one will accidently hook into a carp and then they are hooked. lol[/size][/#008000][/font]

If you sight fishing for carp, use a brown wolly bugger. and just let it sit right in front of them. Don't stirp it or anything

Thanks for dropping in SC_flyguy. Those Utah boys do know their Carp. Lance Egan makes it look so easy.

[font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]Hi there Scruffy-Fly have just been advised that your post which includes wording that when Googled leads to a fishing forum should be deleted. If you wish to post pictures of his flies that is certainly permissible.[/size][/green][/font]
