Grass carp? Nahhh

Headed to the Guadalupe River despite winds over 25+. Couldn't see a dang thing all morning. Once noon came around a faint shadow finally rolled into visibility. The rojo bug fly was called into action and to my surprise the fish nailed it as soon as it hit the water. To add even more surprise, once I set the hook this grass carp cleared the water. This particular section of the river is littered with tree stumps, which I can usually steer the commons clear of... However this fish was having none of it! I had to swim around the deeper stumps where I couldn't touch bottom. Finally she tired and I had her in a position to land. Went to get the GoPro. GoPro keeps freezing. Great. Of all the fish! I had to make due with an iPhone, which ended up coming out OK but not great.
