I'm sure there is some guys on here that like the tug of a carp on the end on there line . Here is some motivation for you .
I have only caught two carp so far one was on a Clouser crayfish and the other one was on a woolly bugger .

I have brown lined many many times, but have yet to target carp.

Interesting stuff. I'm gonna give it a shot this year at some point.
 
Nice vids!
This year I'm going to target carp in the Susquehanna. The smallmouth bass have decreased big time, but the carp are thriving.
A 8wt with lead eye buggers and this year I'm getting a solo canoe or a yak.
Someone said, I think it was Whitlock, that carp are the last frontier for the fresh water fly rodder.
I see that Bob Clouser is targeting carp rather than the smallmouth. I guess his charters will now be "the freshwater bonefish" with a flyrod.
Carp are bigger, much more plentiful, they will hit a fly with gusto.... even in the daytime, and they don't mind the pollution that much.
Come on spring.
 
Ive started targetting carp last summer. The perk over in oaks pa has a huge population of them. Ive yet to get close enough to target them with flies, but they are such a fun fight. Heres an old clip i took from a few years ago trying to sneak up on a few.

 
Try the Raystown , they cruise , so it's sight fishin , they come up for an ant just like a big ol brown trout , catch em till your arm hurts , gotta keep em outta the brush down below , lots of fun and lots of fish.
 
Nice video Mute that is the same area I caught my first one watching it brings back memories of the day I caught it and hearing my drag scream hehe
 
here's a good thread and fly I like to use as well.
