Biggest British Carp is Caught!

Looking through angling times and have come across this from 4th of the month. Absolute clonker and not an ugly beachball shaped carp.
Well done that man!

Wow what a fish, I wonder how old it is?

I think you would be surprised how young it could be. At a guess would say its over 25 years old <!-- s:?: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif" alt=":" title="Question" /><!-- s:?: -->

Read bout this in a mag today saying in 2000 it weighed 22lb , its putting 3lb on a year so in a couple of years it should beat the uk record of 67lb
