That’s right! If you’re a die-hard carp fisherman you probably have dreams of epic fishing destinations in Europe for massive carp. But did you know that Hungary is home to 3 of the 4 European world records for carp? It’s true. In fact it’s one of the few places where you could catch over a hundred of pounds of carp in a single day, let alone on a single fish!

Check out these two amazing, and current, world records from Hungary.

It feels like time is passing faster and faster as I get older. So I have no doubt it won’t be long before I’m looking back on ten full years of Fishing Fury. Of course looking back it’s easy to see we’ve accomplished a great many things in our time, but I can’t help but think about all the things left unfinished, all the goals left unchecked, and all the lakes left un-fished… The truth is, we’ve only completed the prelude to this epic story. So crack open an extra beer this weekend and have a toast – TO THE FURY!

My good friend Phil alerted me to this fantastic swordfish tattoo by artist Matt Adamson. It’s difficult to understand the placement of the tattoo from the photos below but it looks to me like the tops of the shoulders, as if the swordfish has gone through the neck.
