Orvis Guide to Fly Fishing for Carp -- Kirk Deeter (Softcover)
- Carp are tantalizingly close, no matter where you are.
- They will challenge you technically, test your patience, and make you question your fly-fishing bona fides more than any other freshwater fish.
- And they get really big; they'll put you into your backing fast.
- As Trout Unlimited's Chris Hunt says in his foreword, "Enjoy the journey that comes with fly fishing for carp and leave your 4-weight home."
- Sporting nicknames like the golden bonefish, carp are finally getting the attention they deserve from US fly rodders.
- TROUT Magazine managing editor Kirk Deeter meets these non-native fish head-on, examining their history, behavior, diet, and the challenges they pose for even the most accomplished fly fisherman.
- Covering everything from the approach, the presentation, how to effectively read both fish and water - even recipes for the best patterns to throw - Deeter introduces the most prolific freshwater gamefish to an audience finally ready to stalk them.
- Paperback. 160 pages.
