Presenting the Fly to Carp: The Drag and Drop

  3. Nice. I use the d and d quite a bit but find I have to be pretty careful with it. If the fish sees any part of the drag then the gig is up.

  4. Great tutorial McT. The carp in my local pond seem to have learned not to eat flies falling down to them.

  5. Great video, I never thought about leaving slack on the fly. That's like the opposite of trout fishing.
