Ok, thanks, I wil give it a try!

[MegaWallem]

Very nice fly! How is the best way to fish it?

[DavieMcPhail]

Hi MegaWallem,

The way I have seen these flies being fished is to watch for feeding Carp which are normally along the edge of the pond casting the fly into that area twitching the fly hoping the Carp will have a go..

All the best Davie

Hi smithmccrum,

Don't tell everyone out there my seceret on how I come up with flies as I'll have some competition..The reason I tyed the Carp fly was of a request from members here on youtube...

I have caught carp before but not on a fly..

All the best Davie

nice fly Davie, i tied a lot of carp flies, and fished a lot of carp. to make your flies last a pit longer i would add a bit of Soft-Tex, or epoxy to form the shell back, and it also makes the fly more realistic. and if you add some color to the epoxy, or Soft-tex it would look even better.

Thanks,

Mike

[DavieMcPhail]

Thanks Mike for the advice...

All the best Davie

[TotallyFlyTying]

Very nice fly Davie!

Tell me, do you fly fish for carp?

I've been reading about it in 'Trout Fisherman' magazine where Matt Hayes and his chum fly fish for the carp.

Looks Exciting...

Thanks for posting,

Hi TotallyFlyTying,

The Carp here in the U.K are more interested in eating boiles or dog biscuits, so tying a fly to repersent these and you would be able to catch one but you will have to go abroad to find the wild fish that feed on crayfish and alike..

All the best Davie
