Hmmmmmm.... Maybe different quality of hooks? I've caught carp just shy of 20# (19lb - 10 oz)on a #2 eagle claw gold aberdeen hook using 10# line when I was a kid, and have a plaque from the Indianapolis Star (somewhere around here) for a fishing contest that they'd run. I had to have an adult net it for me because I didn't have a net big enough.

Be careful with the salt and butter guys!
