High school student catches four footer in VA RURAL RETREAT, VA – A few weeks ago, the Virginia Tourism Corporation named Wythe County’s Rural Retreat Lake as one of the Commonwealth’s “13 Favorite Campgrounds.” The following weekend, a local high school student from Rural Retreat proved why the county managed park made the cut. Harley Mitchell, 17, was fishing from a boat with friends inside the 90-acre lake when he hooked what may have been a state record fish, a grass carp measuring nearly 4.5 feet in length. According to Mitchell, it took him more than twenty-five minutes to reel in the mammoth fish and when he made it to shore, there were no scales capable of registering the weight of the fish. Mitchell and his friends had their pictures taken with the carp and measured the fish, documenting its length to be 52.5 inches (4’ 4.5”). If their measurement is correct, the fish at Rural Retreat Lake surpasses the largest documented catch of a grass carp in the nation. According to LandBigFish.com, the nation’s top grass carp was caught at West Virginia’s Warden Lake in 2005 and measured only 50.75” in length – nearly two inches shorter than Mitchell’s catch at Rural Retreat Lake. “We measured it from the tip of the snout to the fork in the tail,” said Mitchell, adding that he released the fish back into the lake after taking pictures to prove his catch. grass carp were introduced to the lake nearly 20 years ago as a means of controlling weeds. Despite the fact that grass carp eat up to three times their body weight each day, the fish can be extremely difficult to catch due to their vegetarian habits and skittish nature. Rural Retreat Lake is managed by the Virginia Department of Game & Inland Fisheries and the campground is managed by the Wythe County Department Submitted photo of Parks & Recreation. The lake has a healthy population of Harley Mitchell, 17, caught what might have been a national record grass carp at Wythe County’s muskies, northern pike and large mouth Rural Retreat Lake but there were no scales bass. available to weigh the fish.
