First part to open picture link: [ ] with img between brackets Second part to put link between Third part to close picture link: [ ] with /img between brackets Looks like {img}picture link{/img} |

You have to replace the squiggly brackets with straight brackets.
Since your using photobucket, there should be some link options just below photobucket. There should be four of them and I believe it's the last one on the bottom of those options. IMG code.
copy the code that's in the box and paste it. |

ok forgot to tell everyone this fish has teeth and is very agreesive have caught on waxworm and maulberrys also so it hits a different bait .i live in north west Ohio so i have seen many carp . it has body build of carp but with teeth maybe some kind of pet shop fish that has adapted to water here. its a park pond maybe less then 5 acres maybe 6 to 8 feet deep at best |

I would check with your Park District and see if they are aware of this fish. It may be an aquarium reject that needs to be removed. Tom |

That definately is an asian carp. Looks like a Bighead or Silver Carp. Carp don't have teeth though, so I have don't think that it's a carp at all. Did it look like this:  picture from CAFS or this  picture from CAFS TIGHT LINES! |

Possibly a species of buffalo?? I know most often buffalo are referenced as having "weakly developed pharyngeal teeth" but maybe this one has a more developed set of teeth due to an environmental factor? But I do not know if they are normally considered an aggressive fish |

Buffalo are quite like carp, non-agressive. TIGHT LINES! |

Sorry, KeganBailey but I could not pass it up after that great picture. I am sure beyond any doubt that is a monster "Trash Fish! --possibly a Record of Sorts! Looked like at least a X-tra large trash bag--say, about 80 quarts. Did you get it weighed on certified scales? "Certified Scales" might be a good idea for a test from NAFC. Bass Pro Shops might consider running a special on those X-tra duty fish bags or at least give a 10 % discount to Life & Trophy Members. Uncle Tom  Good luck and good fishing! |

| I built my own lure company as a young man--thus the name UncleTomsJigs. It grew so well I decided to give it up and go fishing with family, friends and especially grand children. I became disabled as a United Methodist Pastor IN 2002 and retired here in Coastal Georgia on a 10 acre lake where I continue to fish despite my disabilities. My wonderful wife and I enjoy fishing together. God has blessed us in so many ways and we pray the same for you. I am excited about having so many new friends all over this great country. |

The picture quality is too poor for any ID other than 'fish'. I am unaware of any carp species that has teeth, and also have yet to find an agressively feeding carp. Tom |

Need to know what quarter of which state, saltwater or freshwater, and always provide tail fin view along with length. Jim |
