Nice Green Carp! grin

You know what I find amazing? Massachusetts and Indiana's state records are in the ball park if not larger and of course much farther north.

Mass 15 lbs. 8 oz. (caught through the ice). Indiana 14 lbs. 12 oz.

The Indiana state record came from a private pond that is loaded with frogs and the Massachusetts state record came from a pond that is connected to saltwater and receives large migrations of alewives.

Maybe feed trumps a longer growing season?

Actually Massachusetts bass average larger than Indiana bass but I don't know why.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
