The poster had taken some stunning pictures of the fish, which would be a once in a lifetime fish for most carp fishermen around where I live.
The poster felt a need to apologize for the fish not being very "big" (i.e. less than 30#).
The fish was likely a mid-teens fish, but the weight is beside the point. For me, those comments apologizing for the size detracts from the great looking fish.
I did the same thing in the past myself. As carp fishermen I think we sometimes place too much importance on weight. I'm getting away from posting weights on my catches unless it's a 20# plus fish (and I don't post all of those depending on the body of water).
