Looks to be a ice looking carp for its size. Some of the real big one look totally out of shape. Big humps on there back and massive guts like a fat bitch

Sounds like a cracking session, it's alright for some being able to take an extra couple of days off work because they have a good feeling about the fishing Thats a monster of a fish, and would possibly go bigger yet as I wouldn't have thought it's be all fed up for the winter yet?

Last few sessions I've done I've blanked so I reckon I must be about owed a good fish or maybe 8

In fairness, its been 10 years or so since i tried fishing properly, even then it was in a local river. I can remember casting and getting the hook caught in my jumper somehow?

In all seriousness - that big fish the guy in the link has caught, what happens with it now? was a quick pic taken and the fish put back or will him an his family be munching fish for the next couple of weeks?

It'll get a few pictures taken and then yeah straight back in the lake to grow a little bit fatter and a lot more cunning to provide someone else with the challenge of catching it again.
