The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.

Carp Caterpillar

No comments yet

This simple little fly is an excellent spring and summer choice for carp and other species that are accustomed to feeding on caterpillars, willow grubs, inchworms or other larvae falling from overhanging trees and bushes. You can see the pattern in use in this carp on the fly video I posted last week; https://youtu.be/_YVlA8yi4UY

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
