Tier: Levi Meetz
State: Wisconsin
About: "This fly is are experimental at the moment. I am 15 years old from WI, and I recently got into fly tying last winter and carp specifically last fall so I haven't had a chance to go out and really try for carp yet."
Notes: Levi is a one of a number of high energy gung-ho youngsters in the swap this year. If I hadn't back-door reserved 3/4 of the spots I am pretty certain a majority of the swappers would be under 20! It is hard for guys my age to conceptualize but I think that for most younger guys, fly fishing for carp is just part of the landscape. In their generation, I suspect that it might end up being kindof weird to NOT fly fish for carp.
