Beyond Trout : A Flyfishing Guide by Barry Reynolds, John Berryman
(Contributor), John Gierach
Flyfishing in Colorado by Marty Bartholomew
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.
