Follow UK Investment Immigration and follow UK News reports: A British tourist recently caught a carp weighing over 134 pounds in Thailand, which may break the world record.
This giant carp weighs 134 pounds and 7 ounces (approximately 61 kilograms), and it took the angler 25 minutes of reeling to pull it ashore. Currently, the world's heaviest carp is 114 pounds (approximately 50.7 kilograms). The International Game Fish Association stated that they need to confirm and update the world record for the largest carp.
According to media reports, it took nearly half an hour for people to capture this large carp and bring it ashore, and even two grown men struggled to lift it.
Attentive netizens noticed that the moment this carp was caught, its expression was quite comical; it widened its eyes and bared its teeth in a grimace, presumably expressing its dissatisfaction with being captured.
According to the International Game Fish Association, this large carp may be the largest in the world, but due to the lack of precise data, it still needs further verification.
Experts state that there are many giant carp in the Mekong River, and many people have previously caught large carp in places like Thailand. It is understood that the Giant Barb is the largest species in the cyprinid family, and this type of giant fish only exists in sections of the Mekong River.
