You certainly are a great flyfising carp apologist. :-) It was good to read your article in The American Carper. You are a gifted writer.<BR/><BR/>I have yet to catch my first carp on a fly. My background is similar to yours - Salmon, Trout, and Steelhead - in California first, then Oregon. As you stated so well, some of the skills are transferable but there are many more things to learn. I was up in your neck of the woods today on the Columbia. Found what looked like good spots but the wind was blowing hard so I didn't accomplish much. By the time it died down the sun was low and I couldn't see into the water. Still much to learn.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, thanks again for the article and your excellent blog. Also, thanks for pointing the way for me and others. I'll be watching for future postings.<BR/><BR/>Dave <BR/>Sweet Home, ORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
