15 Pound Carp

Mark was sure he had caught his personal best carp, but this beauty fell just short.


When it came to the net I was convinced I had my PB and guessed 17. I was surprised when it only hit 15. I was convinced it was heavier!

In other news, I’ve reviewed all of our submissions for the first half of 2008, and you have narrowly beat out the competition with the most contributions (photos, videos, articles, links, comments…) to Fishing Fury. I’ll contact you about your prize right away!

Reader submissions have already been great in the second half of 2008, so keep contributing to win prizes!

I'm sure that my hunting buddies will joke about how silly I look while they wear their stylized broad brim hunting caps, but I'll be laughing on the inside as my head stays nice and warm. I'll be laughing al the more when the stiff South Dakota wind picks up and Kromer is staying put. Finally, with the fall bite on, I know my new Kromer will call the [...]
