Carp: Fact File (British Wildlife Facts)

[@daphnia-magna]

Very interesting facts, in particular, that the oldest koi carp was 226 years of age - that's amazing!

Everyone hates carp where I live but I love em. Not because they taste good but they’re the only freshwater fish you can catch consistently over 10 pounds and they can put up a good amount of fight. Because they thrive in “dirty water” they’re easy to find even in city limits. I don’t have to drive around spot to spot looking for em.

This is brilliant

[@englishgoordie]

Here in Australia they are classed as a noxious and invasive species. If caught it is illegal to return them to the water . I’ve caught quite a few over the 20lb mark when fishing for trout, locally they are known as “Mud Marlins” .

Loving all of your videos! So interesting seeing our native freshwater fish in such clarity and seeing thier behaviour in nature rather than fish tanks. Thanks!

Carp do not average 20lbs Edit: at least not here in the United States, I noticed this is about Europe and dont know how big they average there. Great video with lots of interesting information, 👍 for sure.
