Carp Zonker


 The Conker has been in my carp box for almost 15 years and is one of my favourite carp flies. It's versatile and can be tied big to represent a goby or crayfish for predatory fish, or scaled down to be more like a nymph. Carry them in different sizes, colours and weights to suit where you are fishing.

It also makes a great bass or bonefish pattern.

Partridge & Yellow
