From the Peter Wheat Collection
A fine cast of the one time record Crucian weighing in at 4lb 10oz. Caught in July1971.
Nowadays of course it would be frowned upon but the experts to use the term Crucian and Carp together.
The crucian is not a carp, as the Latin name – Carassius carassius – shows. This cast would make a fine addition to any man cave and a
very interesting topic of conversation.
