Here is some interesting stuff on carp on the long rod. This guy has obviously put some thought into it. The site is quite good, IMO..

I've caught a fair number of carp on flies, usually inadvertently while fishing for smallmouth, but on purpose when I was kid in PA. We had tremendous inchworm infestations all through the 60's and the carp would queue up wherever trees extended over the water and just sit there and vacuum in the bugs as they fell.
As I recall, it most resembled hooking a school bus...
A lot of fun.
