Default Some Good Carpin'

Drove out to one of our local small reservoirs to walk the shore and see
if I could spot some carp feeding. I've found that the trick to taking
carp in the shallows is to find feeding fish. Too often the shallow carp
you see have f----in' on their minds instead of feeding. Trying to get
them to eat a fly just doesn't work (not that I can blame them).

Nice fish Willi. We have a guide known localy as Long Haired Dave that
has developed a carp fly known as Long Haired Dave's Sucker Punch fly
that has tying instructions on his web site.
Http://www.trashonthefly.com. You might tie a few and see how they work
in your area just for ****s and grins.The Sucker Punch has been working
pretty well in the Dallas area known as Carp Creek, but no one I know
will admit fishing in an area that has working girls on every street
corner.(g) It seems to travel pretty well. I tied it one morning last
year at the FFF Southeast Conclave at Callaway Gardens and I know a few
have been working for some guys down in Florida.
