Went carp snagging a couple weeks back and finally got my friend to email me the picture of the biggest one I snagged! Most were in the 15-30 lb range but how big do you think this one went?

PS> I'm 5'4'' but I was holding it out to not get slimmed!

I'd agree with grey wolf and say around 50lbs. I've never seen a silver carp that big! Usually if we see an asian carp that big around here it's a bighead. Those silvers fight hard on bowfishing gear so I'm sure it's no different on rod and reel!

I'd guess a little lighter around say 35-40lbs. it is impossible to tell though
