Veggie Bugger

I am looking for Grass Carp Fly Patterns to put in my revised edition Grass Carp Flies - VI which I am trying to get out before the 19th edition of Lake Erie Steelhead Guide.

If you are interested post your fly's and recipe's here along with a short story about the fly if you like. No gurantee's but, your fly , name, photo, recipe and story may be in volume VI.............

Remember Grass Carp are vegitarian only and of Asian ansestry so they are smart, good at math, and are totally green conscious. These are not your rotten chicken wing eating buffalo's were talking about. Your fly's should match, respect, of the finest, etc.....you know...........like mine






So have fun, post and remember "you can't judge a book by it's cover".





















Shhhh.........don't tell...nick.....i am going to sneak a link to my website here way at the bottom www.grasscarppro.com

it's a little slow and fussy so if you can't get it to boot keep try'in .
























I know, some of you really actually tried to find grasscarppro.com and now you feel dumb. We tracked whom did attempt and will be posting the list here soon.

If you were to fish that fly, and these carp are vegetarian... do you strip it, or just let it drop?

mikey,

i don't know. i am just having fun with the whole thing as the whole asian grass carp versus buffalo thing and million other sub species of carp is huorous to myself and several others the more we thought about it bro...............thats all..............kind of becomes like political humor/john dailey/steven cobert , etc.


tell you what........think i may have to give them a try soon through (chuckle)

what kind of veggie fly would you tie bro and how would you present it? i mean.......it's hard , yet funny to even think about ya know

post a pic of your concept and i will put it in my book or just for kicks

[Michael Hartman]

It would look just like this!

Im short on materials as of now, but thats the dream fly right there.

mikey,

Noooooooo ! !! are you kidding me ? they are already on to grass carp flies fame ...............and a darn nice one at that.............dog gone nun's anyways

even i can't steal a pattern for personal gain from a nun for grass carp flies revised edition VI (i bet Orvis still will )............i could end up struck by lighting and falling face first into a grass carp pond dead.

hopefully she won't have the forsight to market that pattern at amish bake stands, boat tarp shops and fine fly shops of Houma Louisiana region.

i will have to get an interview from her for grasscarppro.com asap/urgent

Who woulda thought a nun would make the best grass carp fly around? People these days...

You should talk to amshaffer, he designs web sites! He could totally "pimp" your website.

[B.Ingersoll]

ha,ha,ha, now your catching on to the fun / dry humor bro........well done !

[Michael Hartman]

I've been with the game the whole time. I was playing along.

I know some serious grass carper's that use bread balls. Someone should make a bread ball fly!

[Justin Damude]

I use poppers thats the only way to catch them

white marabou with a black piece of foam looks like a cottonwood puff ball with a seed husk works great. they love it
