Grass Carp…it what’s on my radar. Having had a good year with them so fa(apart from a whole month during “prime time” when the creek was flooded out and unfishable), I plan to see how many Grass Carp I can catch with the fly rod this year. Currently sitting at 53 for the calendar year. 35 of those were caught during 4 trips over the past 11 days.
Here’s a couple decent recent ones:
Caught 7 more Grass Carp today, bringing the annual total to an even 60.
Sizes were varied. This one might be my smallest yet:
Most were this size or a bit smaller:
I lost a BIG one. Bummed about it, but oh well.
This was the biggest one of the day:
34" 15 lb+ fish from last night (also caught 2 smaller ones and lost another at the net):
Now that 34 incher is a heck of a grass carp. Good job Dave.

Thanks Dennis!
If a Common Carp can be referred to as the “Golden Bonefish”…How about Grass Carp can be the “Missouri Mahseer”? 
Be forwarned…I’m gonna use it! 
Missouri Mahseer…Still my top choice. Or how about Goliath Grass Grouper? Veg Tarpon? Pruning Permit?
Other suggestions? Missouri Missile? Finned Phantom? Silver Torpedo? Ozark Amur? oooohhh…“Veg Vacuum”?
