I got a phone call this morning from a mate, get the Angling Times, why i asked, just buy it he said.
So out i went and bought it.
Now on the front page there is a small heading, two Perch for 10lb.
I opened the paper to have a look and read about this outstanding catch, great fish and both in prime condition.
I then turn over and see my ugly mug stuck on the page.
It's 20 years this month that I had that fish, and the paper is talking about the very same thing we have been talking about here on FM.
River Roach, just how rare are they.
Whilst I agree that big river Roach are hard and getting harder to find, let alone catch, I do wise the AT would stop using that picture, it's History long gone, it would also be nice if the press would ask to run it all over again.
As for some of the claims by the AT, I leave it for those who read it to make up their minds.
