This post details the Foam Trouser Worm, a later post will explain the leather version.
The standard San-Juan Worm may be a good carp fly. It may even be a great carp fly, but I find it awkward to fish for carp and it lacks versatility for different presentations. In order to have a better carp fly I wanted to improve on the standard San-Juan Worm in several major areas.
- Fall, strip and sit hook-up. A hook-down carp fly is just not natural. The idea to go full head-stand came later.
- A fly with some decent action that can work on the drop, twitch AND strip as the circumstances dictate.
- A fly with some decent durability.
The Foam Trouser Worm and it's leather variant satisfy all these requirements..

ReplyDeleteMcTage,
ReplyDeleteYou're a friggin' genius. Already been catching some of these Georgia carp with your original foam headstand worm. That new segmented body is going to murder 'em. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Thanks Dustin.
