I fish for them a lot. Sometimes I wonder why did i throw it out there. Your right as it is a heck of a fight on a fly rod. As summer drops the levels of the Nolin River and with the county sucking it dry for water it makes fishing for carp easy. I spot fish for them and it is a blast. Any one want to give it a whirl give me a pm and I'll put you on them. Although this summer has the river up and down like a yo-yo. Guess I do cheat a little as I put a small piece of night crawler on, but hey it works! They rip it!
That was a rerun of an episode from a few years ago where Tim was fishing at Buckhorn Lake during the Cicada hatch with a local guide from Hazard.
You can watch it again if you want (and it is on Buckhorn with Chris Haley): http://www.youtube.com/user/KYAfield...26/KH6GZd32e_A
We had cicadas here in Nashville this year and the carp fishing was out of control. 30-50 fish days with the smallest fish at 6 pounds. We were flat worn out.
