Wow! That really is exciting! I have had a handful from the Red Lion, all tiddlers but enough to know they are there. I wish you well in your quest Dave. It’s a big river but they shouldn’t be too hard to find (if you think like a roach )Dave Burr wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2019 9:27 am You may be interested but I heard of a 'fluke' roach comfortably in excess of 2lbs on the Red Lion last year. I spoke to the captor the other day and expressed just how rare it was - then his mate showed me a picture of another massive roach taken a couple of hundred yards downstream on another visit together. Both were barbel fishing with pellets. Suddenly 2020 can't come quick enough.
