Surprise haul of roach

Post by Chevin Chaser »

On Thursday morning whilst chub fishing on the Gt Ouse, a shoal of roach moved in. I ended up with a good haul and they were of good weights too. Here's a couple of examples.

It is important to be aware that every fishing story...depends on the honesty of those telling it, the accuracy of their memory and the realibility of their interpretation of the circumstances.

Lovely fish, well done! Did you happen to weigh any?
