Little Green Thing


This morning I started fishing with one of the little caddis things that I had tied up earlier this week.  It is always fun to see fish take a fly that you have made.  Was on a pretty good role,  catching fish fairly easy when I spotted the back of a huge carp about 30 yards up the bank.  I have only had one carp ever take my fly, and the fight lasted only a few seconds.  That carp kicked my ass and there is nothing left to say about that fishing trip.
The only thing I thought today's carp might take was this little green thing.  I have no idea where I got it, but it has been in my fly box tucked away in the back corner for at least ten years.  I wish I could tell you that I caught the carp, but I can't.  I will tell you this though: the bream loved it!  I couldn't keep'em off the thing.
