Aye one of my nicest from the Blackstone river this year. This section of the river in Uxbridge, specifically the Blackstone River and Canal Heritage State park, 287 oak street, has an average of about 8-13 pounds. This was a pleasant surprise coming in at 26 pounds 5 ounces.

Mirror carp, caught on 2 pieces of feed corn on a sliding hair rig, size 6 hook, taken in water about 4.5 feet deep next to a fallen branch.

I don't have pics of the scale sadly as this is not something IA typically take photos/video of. You can check out my youtube of it here, this fish starts at around 1:30 in.

Paully, thats a healthy bass....looks to be atleast 15-17inches...prob 3-3.5lbs....a larry indeed

but the eye vs a scale is a big difference. Im shocked most of the time..On some of my catches my Eye tells me 4.5-5...scale tells 3lbs, haha i prefer the Eye, its has more rewarding results!

Haha yeah..I can't tell you the number of times I've seen a big fish coming in and jumped up and down inside going WOOT! 20+ ..just to read 12 on the scales....Even worse now that I have a certified scale, it has been tested by the division of standards I know it doesn't lie Sad
