This is a photo of the biggest Carp that I have pulled out of the La River so far. The net that he is in is 24 inches long. It took me a good 5-10 minutes to reel this fish in. I was using my 6 weight with 13 Pound test tapered 7 1/2 foot leader (caught him on the glow bug). I asked a guy that bait fishing near me if I could put him on the portable scale that he had, but the scale only went up to 8 pounds and he maxed it out. If I had to guess I would say that it was pushing into the 10 pound range. So get out to the La River, the Carp there are the closest thing that we have to Bone Fish and they will give you the fight of your life.
