I learned to fly fish two years ago and have only caught two trout. I have to go to the Driftless Region in Minnesota to do so, and I don't live very close. However I do have access to the lake across the street from me. I caught this 18 inch Largemouth Bass the other day as well as a 14 inch one. I have also caught Crappies, Sunfish, and a Bullhead. No Carp yet, but would happily do so. I've improved my casting, line control, and landing of fish. And had a ton of fun! I can see how the Carp would be a blast to catch. All fish released after quick pictures.

Got to get to the Rush over by River Falls! Good stuff around Red Wing too.
Steve, you feel destined for a summer of carp...
