Brood XIX: Sight Fishing for Carp with Big Cicada Flies!
The 13-year Cicada hatch has officially begun in East Tennessee and there's no better time to target carp and just about every thing else that swims in lakes where cicadas are present. Watching carp rise to big foam bugs is an incredible experience!

Awesome video. Gonna try to get into some of those TN bonefish this weekend 🤞🏼 Can you tell me about your boat? I’m ready to upgrade from the Nucanoe Frontier 😂

I too would like to know what kind of boat this is.

It's a 2005 Alumacraft 1650MV with a Tohatsu 50hp. I basically bought it as just the hull and outboard and rewired the whole thing and added the floor and eva foam decking that I picked up from Amazon. It's wide and stable and drafts 6" of water or less so can be push poled through shallow water. It's a great setup for the lakes and I've also taken it to the Everglades for some inshore fishing.
I’ve never fly fished on warmer water but I may give it a shot on a river here in Georgia. Nice video btw!! Btw you or one of your guides may have to teach me a little about streamer fishing. I’m not sure if I just didn’t cover enough water or what but yeah. I skipped some spots because I assumed they wouldn’t hold a big brown but maybe I was reading the water wrong. I was throwing bigger flies though just chasing after a trophy fish. I seen one big brown give a chase after my streamer but that was it. Finding big fish is a challenge, still had fun being on the water up in the mountain though.

I know streamer fishing is not usually a game of numbers, I was kind of targeting for a bigger fish but there’s definitely some things I could be taught probably lol.
Is that one of those Lamson rods? Casting action looks nice, how do you like it?

Yes it is! It's the Cobalt 9' 8wt. I have the Cobalt in both 7wt and 8wt and love them both. We carry them at the shop and they're a great rod for the money. Good mix of up close accuracy with the ability to make longer casts so it works very well for fly fishing for carp.
Chickamauga?

How much would a guide trip with you cost? 😂 That was awesome!
