Barry's Carp Bitter

The Carp Bitter - Created by the renowned Barry Reynolds. Widely recognized as one of the most effective carp patterns available, this versatile fly excels in imitating small crayfish and an array of larger aquatic insects. Recommended hook sizes ranging from 6 to 10.

When fishing the Carp Bitter, focus on areas where carp are actively feeding, such as shallow flats, weed beds, or near submerged structures. Use a slow, steady retrieve to allow the fly to sink and move naturally, mimicking the behavior of prey. Pay attention to the carp's feeding habits and adjust your presentation accordingly to increase your chances of success.
