Carp on the Fly: A Flyfishing Guide by Barry
Reynolds, Brad Befus, John Berryman. It had to happen! I guess carp are
going to get trendy now. Gierach has been writing about, and
participating in, a carp tournament for years and now there is a guide
to carp on the fly. My first carp on a flyrod was a thirty inch twelve
pounder that took a long time to land on a six-weight rod and left me
wondering why I had never done this before! They can be "spooky" zooming
away at the slightest disturbance in the water. They can be selective
refusing absolutely perfect casts if the fly is not exactly what they
want, and most of all they are fun, abundant and BIG.
