Carp in the kayak: sleigh ride time

[TheCream 0]

Got this one on Saturday, 28 3/4" long. Fought really hard, and not having a net made getting him in the boat very tricky.

A fly I came up with, sort of an off-shoot of the Backstabber fly. I use Pseudo Hair for the wing with some rubber legs thrown in and a small glass rattle under the dubbed body. Fish react to it pretty well.

The best I can do right now is two pics of the fly from last year. Here's the rattle and bead chain eyes on the hook, a #6 Mustad 3366:

 

 

And the completed fly, with a dubbed body of black Spectrablend Nymph dubbing and a wing of black Pseudo Hair. And obviously the chartreuse rubber legs:

nice fish-- the last two I caught didn't really fight at all.
