(PEOPLE) – One of the world’s biggest goldfish has been caught, weighing in at 67 lbs. 4 oz.! The enormous specimen was found in a fishery in France by British angler Andy Hackett, who reportedly spent over 25 minutes reeling the fish in, according to Daily Mail.

Nicknamed “The Carrot,” the fish is a hybrid species of a leather carp and koi carp, which are traditionally orange in color.
