Texas Parks and Wildlife-San Angelo


I know I have posted this picture before, but it was recently recognized by Texas Parks & Wildlife-San Angelo Division. Every fish you catch has a story. I was fishing for rainbow trout in the concho river. Only days earlier I had caught 4 rainbows in the Guadalupe River in Kerrville. Not long after casting my 5'10 medium action Uglystik I hooked into a rather large fish. My first thought was a 18-22 inch rainbow. However, when I set the hook I knew I was on to a carp. I just had no idea what I was about to pull on to the bank. After a 2 1/2 to 3 minute fight my dad and I were pretty shocked. I pulled up the biggest carp I have ever caught. I'm pretty sure it was nearly double my former personal best carp.
