River Monster. I gotta say I've never seen one that short but so big.
It kinda reminded me of Bopeye :laf:

Carp are a BIG sportfish in Europe. Back in '78 - '80 when I was stationed in Germany, everybody thought I was nuts because I fished for walleye instead of carp. They didn't have any bass there. They do have a lot of trout.
