McTage's Trouser Worm

1 comments

It seems that one of the fastest growing segments in fly fishing is for carp, especially because they are such a great fighting fish! McTage's Trouser Worm, created by the owner of http://www.flycarpin.com, is a pattern that comes highly recommended in this niche of our great sport. Fish this pattern with confidence, and feel free to vary the color, with red being another effective selection.

Featured in this fly tying tutorial are the S201H carp hooks by Allen Fly Fishing; you can find those hooks and many others (including a series of hooks for carp) at the following link: http://www.allenflyfishing.com/carp/

Trevor "McTage" Tanner has designed some killer carp patterns in addition to the trouser worm. For me, the mcluvin and chubby chaser have yielded the best results. give any of his patterns a try and you will be pleased.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
