## Caption

An angler from the UK caught a “proper lump” of a common carp on a recent trip to Hungary.⁠
⁠
Weighing 105.4 pounds, the obscenely fat carp stands to break a world record, according to the managers of the lake where it was caught. Knock landed the big carp on or around May 6, according to that post. The British angler was fishing Euro-Aqua Lake in Hungary, a private pay lake that is well-known in European carp-fishing circles for kicking out some of the biggest bottom feeders in the world. Euro-Aqua is also where Polish angler Kacper Stępień caught his 104.5-pound common carp, another world-record class fish, in September. While there is no immediate way to confirm this, there is a chance that Stępień’s fish and Knock’s fish are one and the same.⁠
