Carp on an old Browning 5/6 4 piece 8 foot rod Backpacker
were in the nineties.
Numerous species of fish have been taken with this rod. It is a plan fly rod. No bells or whistles
just a fishing rod that allows me to catch fish.
I was taken well into my backing before I could control the carp; which is a scary feeling, even for me!
