Hi everyone, I was fishing today in the St. Francis River bridge in Marked Tree and landed this monster Carp. At least I think its a carp I've never seen a carp this big before, lol.
I was using some of the live Fresh water mussels from the bank on a circle hook with 12'' leader and slip weight in about 8 feet of water on a bend in the river just east of the bridge.
There was another fisherman there with his son and his son's friend and this fish blew their minds. They said they had never seen a carp this big in Arkansas either.
Here's the Photo, sorry for the quality one of the kids there took this on his cell phone and emailed me the picture, haha.
