Very impressive. I'm glad y'all are catching these things so I don't have to.

I've been fishing several areas. Pretty much been staying within a hour or so drive from home lately. The Brazos, Trinity, Bosque, Nolan & Paluxy Rivers and the lakes nearby most everybody is familiar with. One of the great things about carp is they are pretty much everywhere and generally not pressured.

great catch- these fish are hard to beat, and to think some folks call 'em trash...

Why hate carp from a river? They are a bit more challenging to catch IMO, but they fight like demons. These were some of the best fights I've had in a long time. Blazing fast runs, deep into my backing every time.

Great report Lusca. I really like that first picture. Catching carp on the fly must be lots of fun.
