biggest carp?


Recommended Posts

Hiya everyone,

Mines 26 1/2 lb common caught to long ago to admit to, You'll all know how long I've been carping if I tell.

The guy who say's that his "biggest is only"

where's the rush my friend, it may take a while to catch a double or what ever size you consider to be acceptable as a personal best but, take a bit of time and "smell the roses on the way"

:):):):)

Newt:

14lb 13oz common (I ain't no carper really).

 

John S - maybe that is why we mod this thing. Can't catch a biggun. :D

But as you know, it's not the quality, but the quantity that matters
