British Angler Catches World’s Biggest Carp on Stag Do

A British angler, Kelvin Marston, caught the world’s biggest carp, weighing in at a whopping 18st (252lbs), while on his stag do in Thailand. He caught the fish using a 7ft rod fixed with a float and a ball of bread. He needed help from his friends and locals to hoist the fish up out of the water. The fish is a Siamese carp, which is the biggest species of carp in the world. It is believed to be the same fish that was caught from the same lake four years ago, but it has ballooned in size by 20lbs.
