Koi in Brooklyn





Each spring the common carp and the koi gather to sun in this quiet cove.


Today I came upon this big koi sunning and swimming.  It was late afternoon.

  1. Bill - what fly would you toss to that Koi? amazing how much the koi stands out in the water.

  2. The water in this part of the lake is abut 3 feet deep; so I would use a fly made from deer hair. deer hair flies float and depending on the size & color (#6 - #14) will resemble a number of things carp and koi eat.
