Recommendations for grass carp dry flies? Had one that hit the top fly of my dry dropper rig (green foam grasshopper) and just as I was about to land it after a good fight on my 6wt it unhooked itself. After that, I was stalking 8+ of them and casting in front of their direction of movement but couldn't get hit. Really sad when they rose to the surface, bumped it with their nose without even opening their mouths, then swam away. Happened many times over 3+ hours, maybe their buddy told them to stay away from that spooky grasshopper. They seemed to be rising to grab either tiny tiny insects I couldn't see or leaves falling around them. Pic related is one I got on the bottom of my dry dropper (prince nymph) a little over a week ago, it was my first carp catch and now I want more.
