I was fishing for trout, sometime around july, and I caught a roach on a hard micro lure. It really hit it too. At first I thought it was a trout. It was my first or maybe second cast. It was a nice roach too. I thought it was just a freak occurrence, but it strikes me that I've never actually tried using these tiny lures to catch roach. I mainly target trout and chub with them. On this particular day I didn't catch any trout, only that roach and some small perch. It's the only time I have failed to catch trout at this particular spot having fished there about 20 times. Yet there was constant fish activity, circles on the water. I'm guessing the water was too warm for the trout, but had sent the roach hyperactive. Does anyone have any experience with roach on lures?
