Biggest fish of the year!
To bad it's a carp...
Actually I was carp fishing, so I can't complain. It's also my first fish with the BPS Extreme reel that I got from fellow board member Ebbetsguy. I took him on my heavy cranking rod with 20# Seaguar Red Label. He weight in a 5lb 10oz. I have seen much bigger ones taken from the lake where I got him, but I a not complaining...

Carp get a bad rap but they are great fighting fish, a lot of fun to catch. What did you catch him on?

Fun fish to catch, I threw my cast net on one that weight about 30lbs this summer, damn near pulled me off the front of the boat. The guys I was fishing with sure thought it was funny.

No, I don't, but even if I did I took this guy out of a retention lake. It's also illegal to keep them here.
