There
were two completely independent lake owners present at the stocking and
both have commented that these carp were among the best they had ever seen.
These have been added to an original old stock of about
150 fish from the 1980’s. These carp are slow growing wild carp. It can take them 3 or 4 times
longer to increase their weight than the carp most of us are used to catching.
These fish are solid muscle and a 20lb fish fights like a big 40. And many of our fish are now around and over
20lb. Many of them have still never been caught and, believe me they don’t like
it. These are demon fish that will fight you all the way to the net.
