Had this little beauty whilst carp fishing last week on Birch Grove. Weighed 1lb 14oz; taken on two pieces of artificial corn over a handful of hemp. Although we had taken a net full of small roach and rudd on the float, this one came out on my carp gear - Does it still count?

No it definitely doesn't count, that's not fair angling and, er, um, and you're a git.
Not that I'm jealous or anything. |

That's a cracker mate. Well done.

Nice fish Julian - that's the second good roach to come out to carp gear this week (See Will's day out, this forum)

That is a beauty, nice one. Nothing better than big roach. I'd personally rather catch that than a 20lb carp.

Vagabond, I have said it before on this site...all the very BIG Roach I have seen, have been caught on Tiger nuts (intended for carp)
Some have been over 3lbs, sadly not mine. Den -------------------- poledark SAA, PAC.
