All those guys on Tinder who pose with fish finally have something to vindicate them.
The Carponizer Carp Calendar, an erotic calendar for the avid fisher, is everything they could ever have dreamed of.
The fishing calendar features a scantily clad model posing with giant carp for each month – so 12 women, 12 fish – and is noted as a “feast for the eyes”.
The calendar creator, Hendrik Pöhler from Germany, said he got the idea when he saw two attractive woman fishing once, and thought, “most men love to go fishing and they also love beautiful women, so why not combine them?”
As a result, the niche product is now made in Germany and costs £16,20 (just under R350).

The 2023 edition has been advertised as “the sexiest calendar to plan your fishing trips with!”, per The Daily Star:
The official description of the product states: “During the photoshoot, two competent caretakers ensured that the scaly protagonists were well taken care of.
“Of course, it was also important to ensure that the enchanting human models felt as comfortable as possible in both wet and dry scenes.
“The impressive result of the photoshoot was twelve formidable and unmissable images for the Carponizer Carp Calendar.”
Behold some of the fish-holding women of each month, starting with January:
Then February:
And December:
Hendrik says that the shoot for the calendar was very “elaborate”:
“Everything must be perfect – good weather, beautiful models, a perfect carp which must be caught before.
“So it could take hours or even days to take each photo.”
One critic of the calendar noted that six weeks to complete the shoot means “six weeks of prolonged torture for the fish”.
I mean I can think of other things to slam about this strange, unflattering calendar.
The Instagram account gets weirder:

Shame, if you thought being a stock image model was bad, think again…
