⚡️📸 Forget Nemo, this is The Carrot! 🐟🤯

Hackett, 42, recently landed a goldfish so enormous it's being called a "monster" by onlookers.

This aquatic behemoth, nicknamed "The Carrot" for its vibrant orange color, was caught at Bluewater Lakes in France's Champagne region.

The 20-year-old female, actually a type of carp called a koi, weighed a whopping 67.4 pounds, according to the fishery's Facebook page.

Apparently, The Carrot has been a resident of the lake for roughly 15 years, and a challenge for anglers ever since. This slippery giant has managed to evade capture by most fishermen, much to their frustration (and her amusement, we can only imagine!).

Bluewater Lakes, known for carp fishing, originally introduced The Carrot "to offer something different" for their customers to catch. Her bright orange color stands out compared to the typical pale or brown tones of most large carp.

The Guardian reports that The Carrot is believed to be the second-biggest fish of its kind ever caught. Talk about a whopper of a tale!
