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:

Wow, those are some pigs.

I got carp fever now.. they should start soon around here.

Those Big ones there make my 37 pounder carp miget by compraison

small duud

huge fish.Liked your quote about work,changed some wording to fit our job.

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.
