Ya i think it was a carp also. I thought it was a big koi fish when i could see half of the body but then realized it wasn't. It just surprised me because ive never seen a carp anywhere near that size in the lake. I have seen a couple cats around that size and one saw a cat around 100 pounds right after the bass spawn ended last year by the dock. Scared the hell out of me i had 4 pound test and was throwing mini jigs for trout and not thinking rigged that pole up and threw a piece of mackeral at it. It gobbled it up and before i knew it that thing had me spooled like there was never even line there. It was kind of funny just to watch the line shoot off my reel and it was about time to get some new line anyway.
