Anglers gather for funeral of giant carp Two Tone
Comments |
Around 50 anglers gathered to pay
their last respects to Two Tone, Britain’s largest mirror
carp, who died last weekend.
The fishermen, some holding
flowers, went to Conningbrook Lake in Ashford where the monster
fish lived for a special service and the unveiling of a plaque in
his memory on Sunday morning.
The carp’s body will be stuffed and
donated to the Natural History Museum in London.
Two Tone, who was thought to be
45-years-old, was 67lb 14oz when he was last caught.
He was found dead in the lake
behind Julie Rose Stadium in Willesborough Road on Saturday, August
14.
