Looking at the other end, no hump. I'd say it ticks all boxes. :Thumb:

God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.

Thanks for all your comments chaps :Happy:
I'll say more about it when I write up my journal, but as has been commented it is a very nice carp regardless of its ancestry.
A few others I have caught in this pool also have this shape and appearance but I think this one is the closest to appearing to be a wildie. :Sun:
