World's Biggest Carp!

Gulp Carp
 
Holy carp! That's a big fish! In fact, it's the biggest carp ever caught, according to many authorities, including those who run an aptly named website called WorldRecordCarp.com.

The 99-pound behemoth was caught in France, by a British angler named John Bryan (as if the French needed another reason to resent the Brits). The fish is so famous it's got a nickname, "The Scar," and it's been caught before and entered in the record books.

How long will this record last? Who knows? The Carp Anglers Group is running a carp contest right now—in fact, a recent Fishin' Informer had the scoop on it. Take a look to see the best weights so far—the page is updated daily.

And, if your curiosity's piqued, you can also find out the biggest carp ever caught, by country.
Who Wins?   You might be surprised which nations top
the carp list.
