Not glo-bugs as they are spun and packed yarn, most often mottled. I can use yarns not often associated with egg flies also this way. I have pictures on Mr.P's Blog and the CAG flyfishing forum if you are interested. Let me know if ever you try and they either work or do not.<br /><br />Best, GreggGregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623587945737239141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779732264661076995.post-72500065614065577722012-01-06T06:35:27.740-08:002012-01-06T06:35:27.740-08:00T.J, yes normally I have a camera and just flexibl...T.J, yes normally I have a camera and just flexible and traditional tripods but that shot was taken by a friend. <br /><br />Gregg/McTage...these are really tough carp. Right now I think are focused on tiny bug larva. I got some really good shots the last couple of days and they refused everything I fed them. Didn't spook or blow out, just ignored al my flies. I'll down size to smaller nymphs or even try some egg patterns you suggested Glenn. They are slowly crawling all over the shallows so on e I find the bug that triggers a response I'll be good to go..David McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08513381038866640198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779732264661076995.post-43659239440650104962012-01-05T12:05:11.503-08:002012-01-05T12:05:11.503-08:00Us carp guys spotted the fish easy enough.

(I'm thinking in particular about the shot of you on the bow, hooked up to a nice fish.)T.J.
