The carp tease is my go to fly. I would have to say that nearly 90% of my carp are taken on that fly. However I do not use the standard design. I have added somethings to the fly and mess around with the colorations and legs quite a bit. World of differnce is all I have to say.
Another tip about spotting carp. I fish mostly streams and small creeks that are heavily shaded. When I’m approaching a possible feeding area I watch the surface of the water. If there is a carp feeding it will make a slight ripple on the water, it almost looks like a vary small fish came up and dimpled. This is made by the fish’s tail moving around.
Carp are very aware of there environment. I have watched carp spook when I have been walking up on the bank about 15ft of the water. They pick up vibrations very easily. Whenever I am out stalking carp I use the tips that I have picked up from guides down in the Bahamas for bonefish. Act and think like a heron.
