Frustrating wind

I but the bullet and got a decent deal on the Orvis one. I did note a huge improvement with the basket.

V-pass if your thinking of bringing a fly rod on the beach with us let me know so I can bring my hard hat and goggles for protection.

NIce, Going J. Carp is not that easy to catch. What fly did you use?

The only time you have to watch out is when I'm fishing clousers. Had many bumps on the head, even a shattered rod. I don't fish them anymore.Lol

I was "sight" fishing and scared away an easy two dozen fish before getting this one. I believe the fly is called a nymph or some sort of nymph. These fish are rooting in the bottom in about 1 foot of water.

i bought a fly tying vise and started tying clousers; they actually look pretty decent. They are the only saltwater fly I own so far. From what you say it sounds like they are not newbie friendly.

Nice fish about how big?

A guy that I use to work with use to fish for them in the Delarware with nymph and willybuggers. He told me that when they are mudding there easier to catch. I never tried for them in the Delaware.

I use to catch carp in florida. I use to chum them with white bread then cast a white marabou fly, and wait till they worked their way to the fly. caught a few to 12 pounds. I have a picture that i need to scan. los of fun.
