One tough carp
« on: April 25, 2013, 11:19:26 AM »
I shot this fish yesterday and noticed a hole in his gill plate. I flipped him over and there was a second hole. It looked like it was healing up. I cant think of anything that woulda done that besides an arrow? Maybe he got off the arrow or they just shot him and tossed him back in? He wasn't so lucky this time  :chuckle: Anyone else ever seen this?

I would bet you are correct. We have a shot a few that have been hit before.

How many did you shoot last Friday night with holes in them?  :chuckle: I know we saw a few.
