5 lbs would be close to record size for this carp. But 2-3 lbs fish is at least 10 years old. They are slow growing fish especially in cold waters. Since in Alberta we have 6 month winter they usually hibernate in the mud during that time and do not feed.
Next time I catch one I will try to find out how old it is.
