Chuck McFarlane 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2016 Decided to join a Carp fly swap my buddy was organizing. I've never fished for them nor tied carp flies but I kind of just came up with one based on what I've seen. I think it came out pretty decent. Might have to start going after a few. Nice looking patterns JacksonK. I fish carp quite a bit and I'm very confident your patterns will produce. Give them a go and get into some gold!

FlaFly 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2016 Mike Just now getting back online. Those flies you posted last were real beauties! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2016 Thank you, Flafly ... I think it's from sitting in a hotel room. I gotta admit, the flies I tie when I have nothing else to do, make me realize how some of the REALLY GOOD guys get that good. I reckon there's nothing like several months a year of cold driven captivity to sharpen your skills at the vise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2016 Well, I am in Chicago ... surrounded by this white stuff. All the water here is so polluted you can walk across it, I guess. It's very hard with no visible flow ... I don't understand !!! I'll be back in Florida, where the water acts like water, in February. I'll let you know something, then.
