Did they measure, weigh and release it? If so, may be he’ll catch it again!

Carps are kind of exception. They have a lot of bones, so the bigger the comparatively less bones. The better taste.

“he world record doesn’t recognize snagging as a method of catch according to Field & Stream.” But the real world does.

They probably have the same problem with dynamite.

In WWII the convoy escorts had a hard time getting much variety or quality in their diets, so they would let a depth charge go off the Grand Banks.

You really should make the call. Was it a legal WR or just carping around?
