carp flies

[adglife]

i fish some local rivers for smallmouth (ohio) i usually do pretty good, but everytime i see some carp i make a few casts, they always ignore it, what m i doing wrong? what flies should i use and how should i fish them?

Love the response above with the pictures.

And on a funny note, whenever I read through something on this post, I have to read it twice because it looks like it says "crap" every time.

My first carp experience:
