As some on FM will already know I have been trying to catch a 2lb roach for a while now. 2lb is my goal, for me it is the magical barrier, rightly or wrongly you can judge for yourselves.
I've had many conversations and e-mails about the "magical" roach. I fish the roach mecca of the world according to "Dr Roach" ........the Bristol Avon, he's caught hundreds of 2lbers, so why can't I?
Have the big roach declined?
Have the cormorants/otters done them?
Or have they just moved?
Or are they very localised to one area/venue of a river?
So.
What is your local river fishing like for big roach?
You don't have to name venues, the name of the river will do. I'm intrigued to find out if it's a local or national occurance?
And don't worry, I won't arrive at your local /forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif
Your thoughts please.
