For the rest of the English speaking world, 220lbs (sic) is 100kg.

 

Considering the UK changed to metric in the mid-sixties,  they sure are slow in converting.

I believe he US Senate approved changing to the System Internationale (SI) in the late 1880s.

 

Catch up guys, this is the 21st century!

There really not that good eating.

We have monsrtor Carp in the Mid-West USA as well - "the best way to eat the is nail or wire them to a board, build a fire and place the board with the fish in front of it, when done, take the Carp off and throw it away - eat the board"

The weight of this fish in terms that all can understand including Thais is 100 kilos, and well done most of the other cynical quotes are just jealous, and a true angler usually fishes for sport and not to eat every fish they catch so it don't matter if its eatable or not.

 

100 kilos....jeeeeez. It weighs more than I do.

Good looking fish ...

 

I'm sure the fish will be flattered to hear that comment.

 

Maybe the two of you can get together sometime.

Yes many Thais are not that great while fishing.. but if you want to make sure YOU fish responsible.. just put your drag low and use a flexible rod. 

 

And barbless / micro-barbed hooks, ideally with a shorter shank.

the fish in those parks have screwed up mouths from the hooks they are caught on. what do you mean throwing the rod?
