  1. Nice one, Danny. Great thing about carp fishing is that we can (and should) all do what we want and need. No point in grafting for a single run froma big fish if we want action!

    At the other end of it, some of us tired old s8ds have reached a stage where big fish are what we crave - whatever the cost sometimes, it seems :)

    Neither are wrong it's all about getting enjoyment!!!

  2. I kind of like this change. May now make me a little more likely to post one of two of my fish, if I can be confident the bowhunters, meateaters etc may find it a little more difficult to see.

    Sorry, if you are a guest and want to see the regional boards, why not join. Unless you really dont like CAG, of course :)

  3. Hey Tim that fish looks familiar.......on the other side Toks will have the final saying if they keep it up or not. a bad pic it is indeed but Like Tim stated I think D knows what to do next time...

    Yes, thanks for taking the picture, Travis. Mine would have stayed off this board if this unfortunate situation hadn't arisen. It was a shame you weren't there when D had his fish, as you'd have shown it to its real potential.

    Agree, up to TOKs now.

  4. All,

    I don't actually know D-Guy yet, though he's been on the lake when I've been fishing. I do know the guys who have taught him (and D , sure he will admin, is not an experienced carp fisher yet. ) - and they are honest, fair carpers.

    D will quickly learn/has now learned how much regard a 30 Lb carp has, and how much a good photo matters. It took me 4 years, and about 90 fish to get mine from the lake he's fishing, but they are there, and currently are in very good condition.

    Though the pic cannot show it, unless he misweighed it, this fish likely was what he says it was.

    For comparison, here's a recent 33-6 from same water. These are deep and wide fish.

    I fully understand why it was challenged (and why it may not count in Big-4 if it gets to that) , it simply does not look that size and it was the world's crappiest picture of a 30 I've ever seen.

    best regards,

    Tim
