wildcatcreek Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I found out today that this catch was a Grass Carp. My first one. From what I understand, they are the largest carp of the Carp species. Being vegetarian, I was lucky to catch him on a nightcrawler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carp-fisher Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Hey nice catch; my brother caught one of those on a nightcrawler once too. Not too many grass carp aka white amur in Minnesota, but there's plenty in Iowa. They get up to around 5 feet long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
