HOLY CARP!

That would have been fun on a 3 wt. :smiley:

Nice fish.

Yikes!
message is too short so I’m adding stuff here.

That’s a trophy in anyone’s book.

Talk about interactive, jumping in the water to wrestle a 92 pound carp. Now thats hands on fishing!!!

I just wonder what my reaction would have been if someone dragged a 92lb carp out of the water and started wrestling it.Do you help him? If so who’s side are you on? Or do you just let them go and enjoy the honorable tradition of mancarp fighting in a fair and honest way?

I think that I would have been seriously concerned with jumping in the water with a sharp shaft that stuck into the fish also still attached. It’s one thing to have a 10" brookie thrashing with a barbless hook, but a 92 lber thrashing around with a sharp arrow is a whole different story.

I have no doubt that I would have stayed on the shore or in the boat.

You know your a Redneck, when you shoot a 92 lb Carp with an arrow, jump into the lake and wrastle it and finally have it mounted over your fireplace.

Suppose he is going for a reproduction mount or a skin mount? Might be the true test of a redneck… Insisting on Honest to Goodness scales!
