Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Carp Addict

What about floatant on the fly to have it stay higher in the water column.  As for the set, I had same issues.  On the ones I did land, I saw the take and gave a quick strip set that elicited a crazy run.  I think anticipating the take and strip set works ok although I did foul hook a few.  I note, that when using bait, they usually picked it up and you could feel the tug so maybe the tight lines advice is best.

Yarn might be a good call, since that will probably hit the water fairly soft. I've stayed away from traditional strike indicators since they do tend to hit with a decent splash and seems like they'd spook the carp.

I'm no carp expert, but how about some sort of indicator (a/k/a bobber) at the junction of line and leader? Piece of dayglow yarn, maybe?
