Nghe An A 40 kg black carp, 40 cm in belly diameter, more than one meter long was pulled up from Khe La dam, Tan Ky district by four anglers.
On the evening of June 15, Mr. Le Khanh Hoa , 29 years old, residing in Thai Hoa town, and three other fishermen dropped their fishing rods at Khe La dam, Phu Son commune, Tan Ky district. Feeling the rod shaking strongly, Mr. Hoa pulled it up but could not. "The fish was too big, it took four people working together, and it took dozens of minutes to pull it to shore," Mr. Hoa said.
Before that, his group had been fishing at the dam for six days without catching anything. The group was still freezing the fish and had not sold them, even though many people had asked to buy them.

Mr. Nguyen Van Dung, Chairman of Phu Son Commune, said that this was the first time someone had caught a black carp weighing 40 kg at Khe La Dam. A few years ago, someone caught a large fish in this area, but it only weighed 20-30 kg.
Khe La Dam is 54 hectares wide, with the deepest point being 20 meters, and serves irrigation for hundreds of hectares of rice in many communes in Tan Ky district. The government is allowing a household to bid to raise fish in cages at the dam and open a recreational fishing service.
Black carp, scientifically known as Mylopharyngodon piceus , belongs to the carp family, can grow up to 1.5 m long and weigh 60 kg. They eat snails and mollusks in rivers, ponds and lakes. The price of black carp is usually three times more expensive than white carp, the large type is about 150,000 VND/kg.
