Reading water and understanding how to present and fish your fly in a specific section of water trumps fly selection in many ways. We're excited to launch a new SERIES on our RU-vid Channel titled: "READING WATER." In each episode of READING WATER, we will tag along with a skilled and experienced angler who will give us insight into how they approach a specific section of water from all angles - GEAR, RIGGING, FLY CHOICE, SEASONALITY, FLOWS, and the like.
For this episode of READING WATER, we joined Trouts own Rick Mikesell as he stalks the banks of the Denver South Platte looking to catch carp on the fly. Rick talks through his gear selection, available forage, fly selection, rigging, approach, identifying happy fish and not-so-happy fish, and presentation for these spooky game fish. From the drag and drop to fighting a hooked carp, Rick touches all the bases it takes to be successful when chasing carp along the Denver South Platte. Enjoy in HD.

Really well done. Love the split screen, two-views approach.

@FFFOutdoor 2 года назад

Great video! We fish for carp a bit diffrently here in Mpumalanga, South Africa. I like the drag and drop presentation method, but our carp will spook the moment the fly fall hard on the surface like your flies did. Looking forward to more carp videos!

@justpow88 3 года назад

Watched a lot of youtube carp videos, this is one of the better ones out there! Thanks for the information, and well done 🤙

Really excellent video y'all! Rick, you are such a thorough and thoughtful teacher! Really appreciate it! I love fly fishing for carp here in AZ, and I feel like most of the videos that people make are littered with secrecy and vagueness, so Im grateful for how you walk us through everything! I'm especially impressed with how well you can teach while fighting the fish! Great work! Would love to see more carp videos for sure!

@AndyJ171 3 года назад

I particularly enjoyed and learned from your initial failures rather than only seeing the success like you only see in these kinds of videos.

Well done. Very informative. I've always wanted to try for carp. I think this video helped a lot based on the details explained 🍻

Awesome video!!! I am very excited to start chasing South Platte Carp. Is this along I 25? Any hints as to where this spot(s) may be at? Awesome video either way ;)

@SiuslawOR 4 месяца назад

Great video ! Would a 10’ 7wt do the job or is it too long of a rod ? Cheers

The effort on this video really shows! I made the premiere but I forgot to ask one important question. What fly line would you guys recommend to replace the beat up floating line on my six weight I use for carp?

@TroutsFlyFishing 3 года назад

I certainly have my opinions, but I'll wait for Rick to return to work tomorrow and we'll get his more expert take on the matter.

Leader is a lot heavier than I would use in water that low and clear. Good to know I can beef it up. I would have gone either 2-3X

Where on the South Platte was this? Are there stretches of it that are better for carp than others?

I use the nail knot for attaching lines and flies unless I need a loop. Over 10 years and have never had a knot failure.

I love these videos. I have only been fly fishing for about a year now and what does Rick mean by net blowout.

@TroutsFlyFishing 3 года назад

A net blowout is when a fish is too big and/or weighs too much for a net and rips a hole in the net, letting the fish swim through it. It's a real sight to see. 😂

Who’s flying the drone? Hard to consider that fair chase if someone’s telling u where the fish are. Hope that’s not the case. Drones are destroying fishing spots all over the world now. Like I said, hope that’s not the case here.

@claytonballerine2280 2 года назад

This is the DSP nothings a big secret here and he works for a renowned shop he doesn't need a drone to find fish. Drones aren't destroying fishing.... You need to have expendable cash for a drone and if you're using one you likely already know where the fish are. People hot-spotting like "Check this monster Carp out of Clear Creek, wooo Casinos and Carp" are worse.
