Here are a couple of entries for German Browns. Pretty close to the same size. I caught these at Gem Lake and both were caught off a watermelon slush bug. Also brought I would estimate a 30 lb. carp to base of ice that I could not get through my eight inch hole. Approx. three feet long, eighteen inches thick, eight inches across back. I got my finger in his gill and could not pull through head first so I tailed him and could not get through that way either. What fun though, he finally broke my eight lb. test. I think that would have been an unbeatable non game fish. Maybe next time.
