Big Carp Show em off

[lskiles]

First off you do not sound like an idiot not knowing how to catch carp. Although they are the most fished for fish in the world it seems we here in the USA have not given them much press. If you go to the bait shop and ask "Wher are the carp bitting?" or "Do you know a hot body of water for suckers around here." You get, at best, blank stares and at worst geers and laughter.
I am not a successful carp fisher, but I have been told that the tactics for cat fishing are very similar.
If you want to try fly fishing for carp a good place to go is:
[url "http://www3.sympatico.ca/ianjames/"]http://www3.sympatico.ca/ianjames/[/url] , There is good information there even if you are not fly fishing for them. Also you may want to google roughfish and see what comes up. I am a member of another forum that deals mostly with what folks call rough fish...carp, suckers, buffalo, etc.. I can not put up a link to the site because of the rules of this site, but if you google roughfish you will probably find it.
Best of luck to you.
