New Flies Just In
A couple of exciting carp patterns just hit the carp bins here at the Uncommon Carp Fly Shop.
Both have a ton of undulating movement, lead eyes to get down quickly, and are great crayfish imitations as well as overall good carp bugs. Check them out in the flies section of the site.

Chickabou Crab
As a quick side note, I have had a ton of comments about crab patterns. They are most used to fish for permit and bonefish on the flats. Sure there are no crabs (or shrimp for that matter) in carp waters, but the design and movement of the flies is killer thus the crossover. And as an added bonus they are all tied on saltwater hooks, no more bent hooks!
