Carping in WA – The Fish – by Bill Marts

March 27, 2019 by adminewa Leave a Comment

The Fish

Common Carp – Cyprinus carpio (no, not Di Caprio) was introduced to the USA in the early to mid-19th century through the early 20th century by Europeans for commercial harvest as a food fish.  From private fish farms and intentional transporting, carp were introduced into our public and open waters.  They fed on Chironomidae, aquatic insects, terrestrial insects, crawfish, small fish, vegetation and detritus.  That just about covers everything in our waters.  They went forth and multiplied and thrived.  They eventually fell out of gastronomic favor and were mostly regarded as “trash” fish.

It wasn’t until late 20th century that carp eventually revealed their savvy feeding habits, strength and sporting qualities to a few fly fishers.  I am sure there were fly fishers on the water before the 1990’s who actually targeted carp on a fly, but they hid in the closet (closet carpers), ashamed to admit that they wanted to catch a carp on a fly.  I couldn’t find anything written before the mid-1990’s, but I and my friend Darc Knobel started aiming for carp with a fly.  It actually took several months to finally figure out the code to hooking them.  We eventually succeeded and it has been an adventure ever since.  We are constantly looking for better patterns, fishing techniques and new waters.

Since I live in Washington State, I can only attest to what we have discovered here since those early days over 20 years ago.  I will tell you, in future posts, about the methods, gear and flies that have worked well for us, but I have a feeling it will pertain to waters everywhere.  I also fished numerous Northern California waters for Carp with varying successes.

There are three types of carp we are concerned with in Washington: Common, Mirror and Grass.  It is illegal to target Grass Carp in Washington.  So, I don’t fish for them, and won’t mess with writing about them.  The other two are fair game.  See photos for Common and Mirror Carp.  The first time I landed a Mirror Carp, I thought it was sick, so I didn’t touch it until I looked it up later.  While they are not rare, they are uncommon.

  • Common Carp
  • Mirror Carp

Here in Washington, Carp become fishable in the spring when the ice is off the waters and the sun starts warming the shallow bays.  Warming skinny waters next to rivers and around lakes invite early Carp.

I once started exploring waters of Banks Lake in early April for Carp and found them in a shallow bay.  The water temp was 53 degrees F.  They were feeding. They were not spawning yet.  I was shocked to find them but had a blast taking advantage of the situation.

Here in the Northwest, the spawn starts taking place when the waters hit 60 – 65 degrees F.  Depending upon water temps in different waters, carp will start sometime between mid-April/early May to full on in June and maybe into early July.  The early spawning antics of carp include their gang-banging, female-chasing riots (6 – 8 males after a single female), they’ll usually take a rest sometime during the day, breathing heavy (having a smoke) and start all over again maybe two or three times during a day.  After this episode of orgy behavior, that may last several days to a few weeks or more on big bodies of water, they are hungry and ready to eat.  They are not impossible to catch during the spawn, but it takes patience and determination

8/23: Brita Fordice Fly Tying Demo

August 13, 2018 by adminewa Leave a Comment

Brita Fordice will be in the shop tying her remarkable baitfish patterns on the evening of Thursday, August 23. We’re really looking forward to this event. 

Anyone interested in chasing fish that feed on other fish, either in fresh or salt water, or anyone interested in learning from masterful fly tying shouldn’t miss this event. Brita’s meticulous flatwings, squid, eel and shrimp patterns are uncanny representations of baitfish species.

Watching a few of them get built is sure to be a real treat.

Event Details:

Brita will start tying at 7:00pm. She’ll work through a series of patterns and techniques and answer questions for an hour and a half. Tickets are $10 and available here. We’ll have some special materials ordered for the event and all fly tying materials will be 10% off for ticket holders. 

Bio:

Brita Fordice was born, raised and learned to fish in Washington state. She taught herself to tie flies at age 10. Once she started, she never stopped.

These days she is an accomplished angler and guide on the beaches of the Hood Canal and Puget Sound, where her custom patterns really shine for cutthroat and salmon. She’s fished extensively in Alaska, Idaho, the Bahamas and Florida. Her flies have been featured in national magazines and she currently works for Sage Manufacturing in their research and development department.

If you’re interested in seeing more of her work, follow her on Instagram @seafly907 or check out her Etsy page.

 

Brita Fordice Fly Tying Demonstration: Thursday, August 23.  7:00 to 8:30 pm.

We can’t wait to see the patterns Brita is going to be tying for us that evening. It will be a great opportunity to get a close look at some refined fly tying skills in action. There will be plenty to learn. Hope you can join us. It is going to be a great night.
