Carp Fishing With SWAT Teams
By Tim Romano & Kirk Deeter
Do you ever fish for carp on a fly rod? Tough buggers aren't they? Russ Miller landed this beauty a couple of days ago under heavy police presence. It seems SWAT teams make it even tougher...
Check out this story on carp fishing around the Democratic National Convention the past week and see all the trouble we got into.
Have a great weekend.

Evan,well, yes. honestly that's really all I use down there.Umpqua has this crazy good pattern that I have to figure out the name for...
Btw tim, ever use crayfish flies for em?
Thats hardcore tim, now all i want to do is catch a tarpon 0n a 2 wt...
Eric -thank you very much.Alex, I had a similar experience on a one weight. Fishing for bluegill and about an 8 lb grass carp ate my fly. I had to break him off to save the rod.
Try catching one on a 2 wt and youre in for a hell of a fight!Hooked one while bluegill fishing with dry flys, It weighed 14 pds.
7Wt would be perfect. A five and six are pretty light, but you'll lose some bigger fish. I use and eight which is great, but a seven would be a touch more fun. Go get em this weekend!
Oh btw, what rod weight do you guys use? Cause I just got a 7wt and know where some big carp are.
Tim:Keep up the cool carp stories ! I'm loving it!Eric
TR, did you get any fish? It appears you were the one who got "caught". Lol
my name is evan... but anyways, carp are amazing fish, a 1lb carp= 4lb bass fighting-wise
