I'm digging those bread and popcorn flies. There really are times and places where that sort of thing can work wonders.

They definitely fight like crazy when you snag them. Last spring I was looking for smallmouth and walleye on The Bear up in Idaho when I accidentally snagged this beast on a jig.[inline "carp small.JPG"]


It took off about 100 feet of line on it's first run and was still going when I decided I was going to have to chase it. It took at least ten minutes and 100 yards before I was able to net it. That was using a medium fast action spinning rod. I can only imagine if I had been using my fly rod at the time.
