Once in a while I have been taking a boat trip looking for carp and have had a few shots at some this year but for the most part it has been slow and I have not had many shots.
I did manage to shoot one the other day that was exceptionally fat and pretty big to boot. It weighed 30 pounds. Lots of fun seeing them when they get big. I have only shot one bigger and it was 40.5 pounds.

About five years ago, I shot my biggest ever at 40.5 pounds. Here she is: This is far and above the norm for the big carp here. Normally, around 20 to 22 pounds is as big as I usually see.
