Lisa, when I met up with Tube Dude and Tube Babe this spring, they were doing the same thing. In fact I thought it was piece of drift would till I got closer. I was in a pontoon boat so I could get close without spooking.
When I realized they were carp, I tied on a Prince Nymph on my Interemediate line (very slow sinking fly line and clear). I cast right over the top of them and slowly stripped the line back.....BAMB! In fact four times, but I lost one. What a rush!
So I tried the river just up the street and found out there was Carp and Koi in there along with Perch and White Bass and I am sure there are some cat in there along with maybe a body or two LOL.
Grass Carp is a little trickier, but can be done.
