Yep, that 84+ lber. is a true pig and the world record common carp.

But the overall world record right now as far as I know is this 87 lb. mirror carp here:

Update.  The same fish has been caught again at 88.6 lbs for the new mark as the  world record carp, but apparently that fish has now died.  See story here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=456929&in_page_id=1770

The latest word is a 91 lb. common carp has been caught, which might be the 84
lber. mentioned above, caught again, -----if true, this fish may become the new record carp.  100 lbs. ain't far off.

Well it looks like the new world record common carp is only 84lbs. 12 oz. (breaking the previous record of 84 lb. 2 oz., not 76 lbs. as I mentioned previously) and not 91 lbs. after all.

See story here:

Couple of updates on the world record carp:

The record was upped to 89 lbs. late last year: http://catsncarp.blogspot.com/2007/10/world-record-mirror-carp-paul-meridith.html



And it was just caught again a couple of weeks ago at 91 lbs. for  the current record:
http://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/news/3773946.Angler_lands_record_breaking_six_stone_carp/

Go here to see a collection of the more recent carp records from the last few years:

Seems like there should be a separate record for wild carp.  Any UK caught fish is suspicious to me.

The recent mirror carp record fish were caught from France.  They are more like pets and are fed so many HNV boilies, they have no choice but to get huge.

Here's the history of the current record fish with the its weight listed for all its captures:

Rather get one of those 50s from St Laurence than a fat out of shape tame fish from a pond in Europe.  I guess I'm mad cause Kevin Maddox wouldn't send me my free t shirt for the 35lber I got on his boilies in Canada.

Well, looks like the world record common carp has been broken again--------same fish as previous record, but reportedly a few ounces heavier at 85lbs. 1 oz.:

http://xtra.carptalk-online.co.uk/wedr84/index.html



The overall world record (mirror carp) is holding at 91 lbs.

In my opinion, that carp is (was) one of those "genetically enhanced" fish. Similiar to those monster rainbows.
I'm not too fimiliar with it, so anyone know what im talking about, help a brotha out!

Not sure about genetically enhanced (possibly), more likely that carp, named Mary is nutritionally enhanced.  If you'd slice its gut open, a load of boilies would probably spill out.  The Euros like to feed the carp over there tons of "HNV boilies" when baiting up.

I didn't think of that. Very true!
No different than those catfish farms, where you can catch 40 blues 'till your arms give out!

Only thing is with some of the ponds overseas they are not overly stocked so with guys fishing every single day and like Steve said they are using a hnv (high nutritional value bait) they get very large.With a lot of places here that get heavy angler action you can see a lot of those fish getting larger as well over time. I would probably break my back if I went to lift one of those bad boys up though. lol

You would need a serta matress to unhook one that big.

Time to update this again.
Looks like the overall world-record (mirror carp) has been upped by 3 lbs. to 94 lbs. last month.:

Yep, it's all in the way the fish is held and the angle the pic is taken, etc., etc.  Hard to tell the true size by a pic sometimes.  Of course, a fisherman would never lie about the size of his catch.
