Started putting more effort into targeting roach on my local river this year. Although i'm landing a fair few between the 1-1.5lb bracket, I seem to be losing a lot of the better fish due to hook pulls.
Can any of you lads advise how you avoid hook pulls when targeting roach?
I should mention that I mainly fish for them on the tip at the minute. I have tried incorporating 6inch of drennan feeder gum to the hooklink, which has help somewhat, but still losing more than I believe I should be.
Apologies if you have seen this post on another forum, just trying to gather as many opinions as possible. Any help is much appreciated.
