I caught one about six years ago on Claytor Lake outside of Christiansburg, VA. I hooked him on a fly made of green estaz, a green zonker strip, and a small piece of green foam. It was basically all tied on the shank at two points, sort of San Juan worm style. I'd seen them feeding on lake crud around the docks for weeks and I told my buddy I needed a "grass fly" and that's what he came up with. Once I saw them, I just dead drifted it and waited.

Also, by caught, I really mean hooked into, freaked out, and got cut off on dock piling. Lasted all of about 3 seconds.

Acc. to the Orvis Guide to Carp Fishing, which I picked up at one of TPFR's Beet Tie raffles, grass carp are bitchin' difficult to catch. I just know that this is exactly what you want to hear. ;-)
