Whopper carp weighing over 70kg caught in reservoir in southern China

A giant black carp was caught from a reservoir in southern China's Yueyang on July 7.

The video, provided by local media with permission, shows two men carrying the 73kg black carp together to move it.

In another clip, the black carp was hanging up to be weighed with its length being nearly the same as the height of a man standing next to it.

According to local villagers, fishing is not allowed in the reservoir but the giant fish swam into their cage on its own and died.
