those grass carp are pretty expensive and you have to get a permit from the state to even have them so personally I would leave them in there. I used to manage private lakes and stocked them all over the state but it does take alot to get them. they are the reason you don't have weeds.

My best is 65.5 pounds from Whitney, so you have to beat that koko if you think you have a record.

You may need to read alittle more careful before you go correcting people.

If you caught a 65 pound grass carp it would have been a new stae record.The current state record for PUBLIC waters is 53.5 pounds the fish I caught was 55 pounds but I caught it in a private lake.

lest you remember these are the recorded and registered fish caught . there are many many fish that get thrown back from people who dont care about records , dont happen to have a scale , etc etc
