fish for and catch carp is a huge success.
There were lots of head shaking and long runs in several directions. I hold the rod loosely
to protect the tippet. You must have "soft hands". I fished my 11 foot, 6 weight with a Skagit
fly line (300 gr), ATP 37 semi automatic fly reel.
This was a great day of fishing. I caught several fish and the last fish, the mirror, was the largest.

ReplyDeleteThat's a common carp not a mirror, and I hope you put it back for someone else to catch at at a later date.
ReplyDeleteThere are 2 carp in this post. The first photo is a mirror carp( please enlarge the picture, you will see the scale pattern is of a mirror carp) The other pictures are of a common carp I caught at that time. In case you are not familiar with NYC fishing rules, all fishing in the city limits is "catch & release"! I have fished in the city for more than 20 years and I am licensed
