Looks wildie-ish, hard to tell from the photo without being able to see if it has that lump behind the head. Lovely fish whatever it is, thanks for showing us... :Hat:

Wildie or not, it is a very nice shaped and coloured carp

It looks wildish. Do you have any other photos from other angles?

No way to tell from that angle, it certainly looks wildish but then so would you if you had just been caught
