Potential NJ State Record Carp,....
Just received a call from an angler who claimed that he caught a 55 lb. carp. It took him 22 minutes to land it.
As he didn't want to kill the fish, he asked if a State certified scale could be brought riverside to verify the new record weight.
I told him that we coudn't do that,...& the cert. scale here @ the Lab only goes to 50 lbs. We have cert. scales @ our hatcheries that go over 50.
As he didn't have the capability to transport it, alive, to a cert. scale, he said he was going take photos & release it.
