Ive been carp fishing with bait for a while now and got kind of bored with it. I decided this year i would chase them almost only on the fly. I spent a lot of time researching and reading, watching fish in person and dreaming about it. Ive been out many times this year and have only managed under 10 landed fish. It is pretty hard, and the fact that i just picked up my firat fly rod this year puts me at a skill disadvantage. I have seen fish reject a fly with disgust upon investigating it and ive also seen them pounce on them. Setting the hook is tricky imo, and being quiet enough and close enough is also a challenge. Like mentioned by catmaster, what you are wearing makes a difference. I havent been very succesful at it so far, but i learn something everytime i try. I dont expect i will be good at it for a while. If you want to get up sometime and try for some let me know. A partner would be nice. I know a few good spots near raleigh and in nash county also.
