Flavouring my dry flies

Hi Roffians,
a short message from Holland.
I am trying to catch big carp on the dry fly.
It is pretty tough; most of the real big ones are being caught so often,
that they really seem to know the trick.
I am now practising new tactics on smaller ones first.
Results are promising, BUT
I FLAVOUR MY FLIES IN SIROP !!!!!
SO : let me know what you think of that .....
The carp feel the soft material of the fly, smells and tast the sirop
and seems to forget the rest.

Wayno, thanks for your reaction.
I do not get the point ( humor ) I think.
Just to be sure : you think it sucks.. ?!

General Carp fishing is unbelievable hot in Holland.
AND ; I am unable to flyfish for trout at all ( other than fisheries ).
No current rivers in Holland too. So don't punish me to hard for fishing
carp.

The yarn material is artificial and will not keep the sirop in its
fibers, like for example cotton.

When casting 99% of the sticky sirop gets out right away.

When fishing the remaining dissolves in the water.

But : I must admit that I can still smell the sirop slightly after the
fishing.

Thanks anyway,
Hans

Interesting. There was a spot along a river where I used to live where
floating mulberries would occasionally be eaten by carp. I was told by
another fly fisher that he could catch them on a purple mulberry fly
during those occasions. What fly are you using or do you believe it's
merely the sugar water which attracts them?

Thanks for these great comments, boys !

There was a time where on Roff you could get some serious discussions going.
And where at least I had the idea that people were treated with respect.
Well those days seems to be gone. Pitty.

And as far as you are concerned Jeff Miller : go **** yourself, please.

NAHAY.

Pitty.

Get a spell checker (right Ken?)

No, thank YOU for YOUR great comment. All of us (yes, all) wish to thank
you for attempting to rid us of that *awful* Jeff Miller fellow. He's as
mean and nasty as a wild teddy bear.

What a moroon.

Believe it or not, that post demonstrates great strides in
netiquette and civility for our Jeffie and Wayno was just
trying to be hilarious.

You're somewhat confused with your roff history, I've been
here since the epoch and I can't ever remember a time when
people were treated with respect.

As for trolling with sirop you might want to check out our
tamer cousin newsgroup rec.outdoors.fishing.fly.tying
Sandy tried to start essentially the same argument over
over there with about as much success. Look for Crayfish.
