I cought this guy on a popper (Silver Carp)
Is it even possible IRL to catch a Silver Carp on a top water lure? I made this catch on a 11Kg leader so I let you imagine the struggle to make it stop and then land it. Had to chase it hard:

So the Asian Carp is a territorial animal and reacts to hard lures. Very interesting indeed, thank you Woolf.

Waiting to discover more goodies.

He does not bite wobblers. He tries to hit them with his tail or head and is detected. Most cases of catching these carps on wobblers - by the tail or by the gills.

You did a great job by putting this behaviour into the game. I think it's the first time that a fishing game simulates that kind of random events.

Keep up the great work, Woolf.

Yes, it seems pretty common in certain spots. I cought other 20Kg+ silver carp, so I decided to go for a stronger equipment when I want to fish with poppers.
