I went through my “rough” fish phase.  I quit when I starting getting the dry heaves when I had to unhook one😂

Yeah I graduated from that class awhile back too.  After wrestling with a 12#+ carp or buffalo I'm in no mood to stand up and immediately try to do it AGAIN.  

Same with gar.   Once in awhile is ok.....if nothing else is biting, and I'm really bored.   But I avoid them otherwise.

Congrats Dave! Are you catching them all on the same style fly?

Yes.  I started off this year trying something.  It caught some small grassies early in the year.  Turns out all sizes of grass carp like it.  You can see it in some of the pictures in the fish's mouth.  Its been continuing to work very well, so I've stuck with it.  It works here, hard to say if it would work as well anywhere else.  I'll keep with it until they quit hitting it, I guess.

How about the goldfish? Do they hit that same bait? I don't see any grass carp spots here in MD, but have found those goldfish. Some are large enough to take a decent sized fly. They were spooky.

Yes, I've caught most of my goldfish on these.  Sometimes white is the best color for goldfish, have also caught them on silver and on chartreuse.

I'm gonna say your John Deere would work for Goldies as well as the cream colored version of the John Deere. 
I know first hand the cream colored one works
