  • In this episode of RIO's "How To Fly Fish" Chris Walker talks about fly fishing for carp. Though not everybody's choice as a target species for fly fishers, carp are notoriously fickle to deceive, hard fighters, and can grow very large. In addition, carp are not adversely affected by hot weather (as trout are), and can be found in far more locations than trout. In short, they are an ideal species for the fly fisher to chase.
    In this film Chris talks about what flies to fish, how to fish them, what kind of water carp like to inhabit, and what gear to use when chasing carp. Anyone thinking about fly fishing carp will find all the information they will need here.
    RIO's "How To Fly Fish" videos are a series of short films that explain all you need to know to learn a particular way to fish or cast. Where applicable, each film talks through the gear that you need, shows how to rig the gear, how to read the water, and how to fish that particular technique. These educational films are packed with information and top tips designed to improve the knowledge and skill level of all fly fishers. Each one is bought to you by a RIO employee or a RIO brand ambassador.

    Stellar!
    I caught my first carp on the fly 3 years ago and have been hooked (pun intended) ever since.
    Trout and Bass have taken a backseat since.

      They are a great species - so under estimated by most fly fishers!!! Glad you enjoyed the episode, and thanks a lot for your comment.

    A white puff fly is a killer for carp as it imitates a cotton wood seed pod . It’s a go to fly on the lower green and also works great on the Gunnison in or around the town of Delta Colorado

    Couldn't agree with Fario anymore. I was just out at a job site today and have been seeing a bunch of large carp lately, I guess getting ready to spawn, I knew folks fly fished for carp and it sounds like so fun to catch a fish that size, and they really are super pretty fish. So I snuck my rod to work, got the work done, then hung around to try and catch one, and holly cow! So hard to catch them 😵 hahaha. I really appreciate this video, so well presented, fella presenting and camera operator did such a good job, and now I'm super pumped to get back out there 👍 professionally done RIO, love your products and muchos muchos gracias!

    you did a good job I have had them break 10 and 12 lb mono/flouro before. Most mine have been on a fast moving river so the fish pluss the current ad a lot of pressure. and you have to fight to keep them out of snags.

    Great video, thanks for the info. I live near a large area that gets flooded every year in the spring and I see lots of large carp that seem to be feeding right against the grassy banks when the water is coming up. They are nosed into the bank and seem to be aggressively feeding. I know it might be impossible to answer this question but what would your hunch be on what they would be eating and what flies to use? I know this year when it starts to happen I can wade in and look but I am keen to try to get a carp and want to make sure I have some flies ready to go. Cheers.

    • @RIOPRODUCTS
      @RIOPRODUCTS  Před 2 lety

      Great question! Our hunch during a flood season would probably be worms that are flooded out of their normally dry homes. Also, generally they are a good choice for carp. They could also be feeding on other aquatic species disturbed by the change in water like nymphs or crayfish. Try one of RIO's Red Hot Worms, or Cray Crays. Hope this helps!

      @@mikewelch4673 , The weeds would be dry? and dying? the carp are staging and feeding by rooting the dead weed and insects/worms .
      For me a beadhead crystal wollybugger in size 10 had been effective along with small brown beadhead wollybugger with rubber legs .
      The technique is to get the fly in the zone slowly and let it be on the bottom and gently raise it as the carp suck /stir up the bottom as if the fly rose up from the path rooted/stirred by. the carp, the carp will immediately take the fly .
      The should only be raise till the carp's eye level just an inch or two .
