I managed to hook a pretty hefty carp this evening. I was using a light spinning outfit with 6lbs test fluorocarbon. He looked to be at least 6 lbs, maybe 8. I couldn't tell if I'd snagged him or if he actually hit my 1/8 ounce chrome kastmaster. Got him up to the wall and then my wife went a little nutty on me with her excitement and grabbed the line. She thought it was a rope I guess. I tried to get her to let go and use her bucket since we didn't have a net but before she let go the line snapped.
