A lot of them are wrong Dan, will try and update them soon

Also was that lake around Norfolk or Suffolk?

Wow,

I can't believe some of the weights listed on here, how many big carp were caught on boilies, I have always sruggled with them.

What is you favourite one?



Thank You

Aren't there seperate records for common / leather / mirror carp or are they all the same species? Some frightening fish there, imagine a 31lb natural brown trout!!! 15lb tench would be fun to catch, bet it fought harder than the record carp.

Better get rewriting that mate - Two Tone the carp and Traveller the barbel as you probably know have been recaught and are both heavier now.
Not that catching a fat, tame carp is anything to boast about.
