Birdie.. I am still HOPING to get my first carp on a fly .. My wife and i were out on a lake fishing this Tuesday, and carp were rolling, and one was RIGHT by the boat.. He had to be at least 40 pounds.. I took one pretty decent pic.. He was a MONSTER... Just rolling over and over in the water.. I could not imagine actually hooking him LOL, Chuck ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian Burgess To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, March 17, 2007 5:29 AM Subject: [VFB] carp and holiday
I decided to go and see my mate who was fishing on Thursday and being a nice day here in England I thought I would take the fly rod just in case the carp were up on the surface, well they were and in an hour and a half I had six the smallest about 3lb and the best one going 15lb all taken on a deer hair fly clipped to look like a small dog biscuit. I am still reliving that fish as it,s my best Carp on the fly so far. I am off to Australia on Sunday for 3 weeks to see my son and of course get some fishing in at the same time.( Perth ) Tight Lines Birdie
