Roach in the city centre

Post by Tengisgol »

Not great quality video, and no monsters, but roach everywhere on my wander into town today:

A spot of winter pole fishing me thinks!

The good angler is not the one with expensive equipment. Common sense, observation and trying to realize
what is happening above and below water will catch fish no matter what price equipment you fish with.

Reminds me of when we visited Salisbury city centre last year, massive Roach and fair sized chub from the bridge there.

Yes. There are a couple of spots. One area is good with a float and pin and the other needs a pole but it stays very ‘choddy’ even in the winter (apologies for that expression) so it needs a bit of working out. Shopping trolleys, old boots and dead bodies don’t help. :fishing2:

As ever, I have a plan.
