Oh they get huge. I have seen them up to 55 LBs. But HEARD OF THEM IN THE 100 LB Range. I just havent got one that big yet. Caught some Carp that weighed over 30 LBs tho. We dont eat carp tho, so we threw them back of course. And a few Bass not to big tho ABOUT 15 Inches long we threw them back as well. Had fun tho:thumbsup:
