Chasing a MONSTER roach

After losing a fish at the linearfisheries complex in the previous 'Chasing a Monster Roach' video, I really wanted to get out for another session. Amazingly due to changes at work, I got out the very next day! I only had a day session so decided to visit #shearwater lake, a place I hadn't been since the previous winter. Shearwater has a HUGE head of mixed species making it a great winter venue for anyone looking to get some cold water action. The plan of attack was the same, simple maggot feeder tactics and baiting little and often should keep the bites coming.
It was a #HECTIC session as it normally is on this venue, I had a great day and enjoyed a more relaxed approach to my fishing.
Thanks for Watching,
be lucky,

Same here mate! Fancy a session on the Brue once it gets cold again?

[@sheppeyfishtales]

Good effort and a great pic of the roach enjoyed the Camera angles. If the wind picks up or you want more distance with the block end feeders I slip a small ledger 1/2 oz in the feeder with the maggots 👍

[@TheFishingBloggers]

I have tried this but with the drennan feeders the caps on the base, so the extra weight pulls the end off in flight.

[@shed43a]

The Fishing Bloggers I use feeder rods so maybe more forgiving in the tip when you using the Drennan feeder bombs... you could try there block end feeders. Nice bag of bream 👍

Thanks mate 👍

[@Kast2StrikeFishing]

I found you through the suggested videos. First your videos are very informative when it comes to fishing. I just made a youtube channel in September so I'm definitely doing my research. Thanks for all of your help showing me what a good structured channel should look like. Please keep it up! Just Subbed!

[@TheFishingBloggers]

That is awesome! Glad we can help a fellow blogger.

[@Kast2StrikeFishing]

@@TheFishingBloggers thanks!

[@nickflitter7172]

At least you managed to catch one roach......

[@TheFishingBloggers]

I know, need a few more!

[@hullpestcontrol9162]

Great video loved every second of that, can you tell me some more about the Nash Scope rods please, what TC are they??

[@TheFishingBloggers]

Thank you. I've got a set of 10ft 1.75lb. There a little heavy for the roach but a brilliant all round rod. Be lucky 👍

[@johnstarkie4958]

Great vid nice relaxing fishing can`t beat it how do you like the blue van I have one same

[@TheFishingBloggers]

Cheers mate. Love my van, so glad I bought one. Makes it a breeze wheeling the barrow in and out on the ramp 👍

[@Fishwish]

Nice vid. Shearwater isn’t far for me but is it too far for lockdown!? Probably 😩

[@TheFishingBloggers]

I think it's shut anyway. They've been having water quality problems.

[@Fishwish]

@@TheFishingBloggers ah that makes me feel slightly better about it then 😅

[@nickflitter7172]

I’ve told you about that high pour before, it’s copyright infringement

[@TheFishingBloggers]

I can't help it, it's an addiction 😂😂

[@Aaron_Butcher3007]

Why are u trying to catch roach

[@TheFishingBloggers]

Because I want too...

[@sheppeyfishtales]

Because a big Roach are awesome.

[@Aaron_Butcher3007]

The Fishing Bloggers fe I suppose it’s nice to try and catch a specimen size fish of any species

[@TheFishingBloggers]

@@Aaron_Butcher3007 I'm a fisherman, not a 'carp angler'. I spent most of this winter fishing for perch and roach... Fishing is about enjoyment through variety for me!

[@Aaron_Butcher3007]

The Fishing Bloggers fe I do like to catch other things other than carp some times I go fly fishing for trout which is great fun
