42 lb BigHead Carp

38 lb SpoonBill Don't ask me where I shot it because I'm going to tell you just beneath the dorsal fin

27 lb common carp, I did have a 35+ but came off at my feet, but I still can't believe I haven't gotten a thirty plus at some point in doing this for 20 years.

29 lb Grass Carp

19 lb Illinois Longnose gar

and the rest of the species I won't even mention because Slim will just laugh at my little ones
