PB Mirror Carp........12 lbs 8 oz
PB SM Buffalo........ 53 lbs
PB Grasser........... 48 lbs 4 oz
PB Blue cat.......... 17 lbs (caught on maize)

Small carp can be fried up just like any other fish, just more bones to pick out. The Big ones...well you get the picture. The worlds greatest sport fish. Just look online and see just how many countries revere this great species. Nothing else left to say.

Set up with baitrunner spinning reels which have a secondary lightweight drag so that the fish don't pull your rod and reel in the water,and make a clicking noise so you can be alerted that a fish is on your line,combined with an alarm that detects line movement and makes a loud noise(mine beeps),this sound of alarms going off and the fish stripping line off your baitrunner creat an adreniline rush that is very addictive.Many of us get withdrawal symptoms if we havent fished for a while. I want to carp fish now.
