Goeie werk - dit raak 'n addiction!!!
I am new to fly fishing, had my first casting lesson on Saturday. I went to a dam near where I live in the Strand, and started practicing my casting, I know that there is carp in this dam, but never thought that I will ever catch one. After about an hour of casting, it happend, the carp took a woolly bugger, it ran about with my line, I turned it and we where on. I was so excited, the thrill of catching my first fish on a fly. It was awsome, unfotunately I pulled to hard when the carp was near the edge of the dam, and the fly came loose, I could see the carp in the shallow water, probably about 2.5 kg. what a thrill, I am now hooked on fly fishing.

I think no innocent species of wit or pleasantry should be suppressed; and that a good pun may be admitted among the smaller excellencies of lively conversation.

NOTICING
When fishing for carp try and use forged hooks cause what happens is the hook bends open and the fish comes off. Especially if you fish barbless hooks.
My favourite fly is a red tailed black and grizzley hackled wooly worm on a no.6 or no.4 long shank forged hook. These are great because if you see a catfish whilst looking for carp they will also take the wooly worm. Slap it down in front of the catfish several times to get his attention. For carp fish it where you can see them feeding on the bottom and watch for the smallest of takes on the line. Have caught carp up to 25lbs like this and catfish up to 45lbs.
