Would suprise me if you didn't get any roach or perch with these nymphs (bottom right pic).

I'll have to try the czech nymphs out.

Just making my mind up whether to go fishing tomorrow or not. I'll be going on a stillwater. But it's always popular with course fishermen. I've only fly fished there once and haven't caught anything.

ArcticFox,

I caught several carp the other day on a similar "fly" like the one you posted in the top picture, only mine is white in order to imitate the "natural food" i.e. white bread. That's because the carp living in the local pond where I fished are regularly treated to white bread by locals feeding the ducks.

Best regards,

Rick
