reddeerfrank Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hi everyone. Kevin has compiled another set of pics and he also poured through a weeks worth of video to come up with some interesting snipettes. Here are some links http://www.youtube.com/user/SurfaceFilm#p/u/0/aus4L66aWKg http://www.pbase.com/kevinsproule/081111 ---some bad language in the carp related videos--- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monger Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Good whack to the knuckles for sure. Thanks for posting Frank What do you use for carp fishing? I saw them in the Big Horn but never fished for them. Cheers, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddeerfrank Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 rob, the guide had us using hook side up flies....clouser type, crayfish, and the like. the one that caught most of the fish were a copper upside down zonker. carp are ultra spooky. a cast 30 feet above them could make them pull of the bank, an achor 'quietly' lowered into the water, 50 feet away, to fish to 'risers', would put them all down.....wwayyy spookier than trout. as much as i am a dry fly person, the carp we fished to were in 6 inches to 4 feet of water...tailing, gulping in the foam, mudding...very cool stuff. i would recommend it to anyone. btw, after more than 20 years of fishing the mo', this year is in the top 5 for fishing....dries everyday, all day. in 7 days, we shallow water nymphed for about 10 minutes. good times!

Buck Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Nice pics! Thanks for sharing. Curious as to what lens are you using? 70-300mm??? Your video looked like the 17-40mm? Cheers, Brodie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
