stotty;386153; said:Just got back from France 6 days carp fishing did quite well the biggest fish 42lb the next one down 32 followed by a 30lb common then 24 and a 21 and a load of smaller stuff thought I would share as a lot of Americans now getting into the Carp seen. This has been big here in England for 30+ Years now and growing like the fish.
Nice Carp! Pretty much my favorite fish to catch, especially the Grass Carp. Most of us over here in the US are too good for carp apparently. Some idiot told another idiot and spread it to more idiots that these are trash fish only. Most guys over here will look down on you for posting a carp. They shoot these carp all the time here just for fun and let die. I know there isnt anyone here or elsewhere that dont properly dispose of their bowfishking kill but you see a lot of dead carp of all sorts are larger lakes, sucks. But oh well, what can you do? I wish I had a lake around here to catch commons that big and the others. Ive caught some nice mirrors bot nothing over 15 lbs. I may be heading out today since no rain for the first time in forever and see if the grass carp are ready to be fed.
