Flyfishing for tailing carp. I have a creek nearby the house that is shallow where I can go and use modified bonefish flies to catch carp. It is loads of fun.

That's so cool dude.  I love catching carp. I think they are one of the best fighting fish around.  Great fucking idea.  I would think a grub imitation might work also.

I've not gotten around to trying fly fishing for carp. My buddy, who I consider to be an adept fisher men, told me carp can "smell" you if you handle the fly too much, or you have stinky shit on your hands.

No, a tiny tied grub fly fished wet.

smaller, like a whitish grub.  Just tie something small and grub sized.

I read a story once in Outdoor life.  A guy was walking along a river and saw a ripe mulberry tree hanging over the water. As he watched a berry hit the water and something took it.  It happened several times so he tied up something that looked like a small purple fruit and started taking carp on that dang purple fly under that tree.

I have actually seen this in a lake and taken carp on purple sucker spawn flies.

Wooly buggers are a definite go for carp I normally tie my own modified patterns but yeah it most definitely will work. Tie a small tuft of white rabbit fur in it helps in tracking your fly. Carp for their size can sometimes have a very soft take.

I grew up fishing carp in the Grand River in Michigan.  No flies in those days.  Molasses and flour. :laugh:

One night we were fishing for cats at night and some guy sitting by us caught a 60lb carp on a dead minnow.
