Description
The Bellycrawl, created by Rob Koland, is a versatile and highly effective fly designed to target carp, particularly in shallow waters where they are actively foraging. This fly is crafted to mimic the subtle, slow movements of prey items like small crustaceans or worms that carp feed on from the bottom. Its weighted body helps the fly sink quickly to the carp's feeding zone, while the unique design creates lifelike movement, especially during slow retrieves.
Pro Tip
Rob used the Bellycrawl in 2008 and 2009 to help win first place back-to-back at the South Platte Pro-Am Carp Slam in Denver, Colorado.
