Hey, Jeff Sylvan, there's an excellent piece about carping on the Los Angeles River in California. http://www.theflyfishjournal.com/issue/8.1/feature/AS-IT-SHOULD-HAVE-BEEN
But you'll have to buy the mag to read the story..

Thanks for passing that along Mark! I'll have to check it out! Interestingly enough, my company has a couple projects going on out in the general LA area, so I may have to spend some time out there. A couple hours of carping would be a good way to pass some time...

It would be a totally different way to experience LA. ;-)

I think we can find some of those "flats boats" in Four Mile Run.

Outfit them with a bit bigger tires and they'd be ideal for the canal!

Paging Parker....

Didn't you fish out of one of these on the canal?

I've been known to get out there on this guy. As a self respecting fisherman I had to load it up with some features. Some advice for anyone who plans on getting this urban flats boat make sure there is someone sitting on the bike seat. Otherwise if you try to stand in the basket it will dump you faster than your first girlfriend.

that picture is hilarious and can definitely sum up urban fishing!
