I wonder if the carp took the lure (that would surprise me) or if the guy snagged the carp with the lure. I’ve done that with carp. I have no idea if that would impact the record. I know with river salmon you aren’t suppose to snag them.

It’s been stuck in my head since 1979! :)

“I don’t know, but I’ve been told...”

“Ain’t no use in lookin’ DOWN - Ain’t no Discharge on the ground!”

“Ain’t no use in lookin’ BACK - Jody’s got your Cadillac!”

Military Cadence originated in 1929...in PRISONS, LOL!

It was fun while it lasted, though. Nothin’ like a 10-mile Field March on a hot August day in Full Combat Gear, Baby!

I will say that it got a little old for us Gals having to DRAG the Guys over the Finish Line at the end! ;)

(I was in the very FIRST Co-Ed Platoon, 1979, Fort Jackson, SC for my Basic Training).

Yeah, it dawned on me you were kidding about the fish hook, not the hay hook, after I posted my comment.
