27K logged catches • 158K followers
While grass carp might be reluctant to bite, once hooked they put up a tenacious fight and are known to jump. Even though their main diet consists of plants, the most popular methods of targeting grass carp include still fishing with dough balls, but fly fishing for this species is becoming increasingly popular.
