"I was able to hook [her] with a hay hook in order to get [her] out of the water."
Hope they got the pronoun right. When did the reporter ask the fish. Or did the reporter assign the pronoun based on birth. In any case, a lot of carp dinners.

Mr. Chance - you did great!! Took a tough old guy to outplay that tough old carp.
Well done, sir.
To: SJackson
Nah…It’s not that big. He simply put the fish closer to the camera!

This is what a really big Goldfish looks like, don’t flush Goldfish into our streams and rivers.

I haven’t heard that since basic training.

I call BS. Probably included the weight if the hook.

Not much closer. His arm is close to his waist and holding the belly fin in his hand. If photoshopped, they added some shadow on the fin next to his fingers.

Ha! Hay hooks are only about a pound or two. I used hay hooks a LOT in my 25+ years of ‘racking bales’ on hayracks. Used them in the barn too.
