Don't know if anyone has seen this, but I was browsing through Fly Fisherman's website and stumbled across this.

Fly fishermen are stereotypically trout snobs (though that's quickly changing). I just thought that it was cool seeing a "trash fish" gettin some respect from the trout snobs (though the author of the article is hardly a trout snob).

there are allot of flyfishing carp guides up north MI for example has a large number of them except they are guiding people not for carp but for "golden bone fish" and in colorado the fly carp guides call them "mountain bone fish" pretty funny and some great info thanks for posting!!

Whitlock has been espousing the virtues of the bugle bass for a while. I like fishing for carp and I like to think that most reasonable fly fishers are at least open to the idea.

And if they aren't, well screw 'em!

I've been trying flyfishing for a couple years now, and still learning and making mistakes everytime but getting better. Personally, i really dont care what takes my fly, or any other bait/lure for that matter. I have just as much fun catching bluegills as i do carp, bass, catfish, or anything else.
