I tried to catch one of these with my bare hands at the edge of a lake.. No luck! Quicker than they look! I HAVE caught golden carp in the Yakima river 4 times this size.. Dragged my entire rod and reel into the river and caught it all back WITH the fish about two hours later!!!

Given the photo I could picture one of those Daffy Duck fish that stomps out the water, breaks the rod and smacks it over your head...
I caught a fish like that with my bare hands one night.
The Japanese lady that owned the restaurant was not pleased.
Made me put it back.
