Amery Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 Had an hour or two during the twins nap so I went to elmdale intending to catch some perch on the fly. I did that and managed this grass carp on a San Juan worm. BilletHead, jtram, jackdizo and 2 others 5
Members jackdizo Posted September 24, 2015 Members Posted September 24, 2015 Awesome Carp! Bet that was a fun fight on the fly! Nice work.
Amery Posted September 24, 2015 Author Posted September 24, 2015 Honestly I don't get into the "carp on the fly" craze. Landing one is a real chore. Then if you do manage to land it, all you have is a carp. I don't think I will ever really target them.
Members jackdizo Posted September 24, 2015 Members Posted September 24, 2015 I target them from time to time. I like the fight and the challenge of landing them, I dont keep any fish that I catch except trout, and thats only usually on overnight floats. So I mainly fish for the fun of the fight and like switching it up on species I target from time to time. Mostly Im a bass and trout fisherman, but do chase the carp and the gar from time to time as well as do some catfishing...
Amery Posted September 24, 2015 Author Posted September 24, 2015 I'm 100% catch and release. Carp are not exactly eye candy.
