Thanks, Mark. Just finished reading it with my bagel. But don't you mean "spotted channa"?

Cheers,

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: American or Hickory?

Every aspect of a Stealthcraft is customizable. They may have opted out of a foot bar. I was forced to opt out of an anchor winch by the wife due to costs and I get pissed every time I haul that 40lb lead anchor up. 

I want a FlyCraft. Don't need one but really really want one.

Stealthcraft also has an inflatable boat that is similar. They always have used boats for sale and are about half a mile from the Pere Marquette. If you buy a boat from them be sure to pick it up and float while there. - just be sure you know where the outtake is: http://www.mlive.com/news/muskegon/index.ssf/2016/07/muskegon_river_tubing_trip_tur.html

Does the Fly Craft have a foot bar?

A buddy brought his Stealthraft to the Jackson this weekend. First time I've seen one in person.  It was bigger than I expected but I was somewhat shocked to see that it didn't have a footbar.  Other than that, looked like a great boat.

I have been stalking the flycraft, fly smith big shoals raft, and the the t.rex 9.8 mini drifter. Things holding me back are I am not sure where all I could actually take them, cost, and can you really stand when you fish out of them. Also, smithfly's new giant paddle board looks cool as hell.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Anybody seen carp in the canal yet?

I hooked several carp at the surface with Justin last August in Colorado. They were sipping wind blown ants in the surface film. Only fly I had was a few size 20 trico. Couldn't land them but it was truly an experience.

I've caught Carp topwater on green and pink egg patterns.  They are omnivores and will often eat whatever is falling off of the trees, not just mulberries.  My rule of thumb for carp is if you see them eating off the top, cast the egg or mulberry.  If you don't see active top feeding, don't bother.  They feed off the bottom 90% of the time in my experience.

My only top water experience with carp is on a mulberry in the canal. But I have read that they will feed on cottonwood seeds, and people tie flies to imitate them. My Orvis carp flies book, also has stimulators as a suggested pattern.

So if you want to catch Carp on a topwater fly..& we won't have mulberry opportunities.....which flies in addition to elk hair caddis will they most likely take?

Also...has anyone caught carp on a topwater fly in the Potomac?
