Best day this year in less than the best conditions

This is the fourth of many Carp fishing posts and though this is yet another report there will be an informational post about the fishing coming very soon.
This trip was different in that it came with less than ideal conditions. The water clarity was good but the overcast skies and stiff breeze made spotting fish very difficult. What I did find however that if I was patient and staked out a spot and waited very patiently. Fish would cruise back into the banks where they were hiding out. The good thing about it was that in my experience fish on the banks feed very well and even the fish who were not on the banks were much less spooky. The downside was that since I could not see the fish well in most cases I had to fish flies much slower than my already slow pace which made detecting strikes very difficult. For many of the fish I could not visually or physically detect the take so I had to slowly drag the fly an inch or two with the rod tip every few seconds to make sure I had no action.
This type of fishing proved to be very successful but I certainly did not tempt any of the big fish in my favorite new carp pond. For this type of fishing I turned to a popular fly on the web that provides a lot of movement. I chose "McTage's Foam Trouser Worm" in yellow, one of several colors I tie it in and which can be found on his blog here. This fly has great action especially when given movement or when fished in an area that has any current at all which plays out in my fishing.
