Fudge and a friend weren’t having much luck while fishing for crappie, bream and bass in Reelfoot Lake in Tiptonville last week.
After giving up on a spot, Fudge started the eight horsepower engine on their rented jon boat and headed off in search of fish.
Moments later, a 30-pound Asian carp found Fudge when it jumped about seven feet out of the water and landed in the tiny aluminum boat.
“It all kind of happened in slow motion. It was surreal,” said Fudge, 26, an Old Hickory resident who was on his first trip to Reelfoot. “We were running across the lake to another spot and that thing just jumped in the boat with us.”
