Carp on the fly, this is a trending hashtag on Instagram and ever growing. Its so much more than a corny hash tag though. I know I have personally bragged about catching a carp using all fly fishing gear and even started a guide service based on basically, catching carp on a fly. It’s a way of life for the ones that really enjoy it. Carp fishing is always on my mind, I’ve spent so much time and money on these “trash fish” and i’m still not sick of them. They consume our lives.

The biggest thing I had to learn when fishing for Carp was patience!! In my opinion patience on top of good preparation is the key to success!!

After I got that together, things started to fall into place for me. I quickly learned what baits and flavors worked best at different locations and at different times of the year.
With all that knowledge I gained from all the time spent blanking and thinking about how to not blank, I noticed my catch rate rising quickly!!
I was so happy because I was finally getting pretty consistent results!!
