I rarely fish for Carp these days, but that fish is magnificient, and well done to the angler.
Sitting it out for a week in negative temperatures for one bite requires a lot of dedication, and while it is not what a lot of anglers could, or would, do these days, one has to admire him, and that fish.
I did have a little chuckle though at the headline: "Man catches carp the weight of Kylie Minogue" firstly I didn't know that she was so tiny, and secondly, I wondered how many of our contributors would have preferred to 'catch' the young lady rather than the Carp?
I had been thinking about a trip to Rainbow Lakes in the summer, maybe I'll do more than 'thinking' about it now . . . .
