tomburras 2,721 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 A roach from the Leeds and Liverpool canal in Leeds on my 6th birthday with my new tackle I'd just got. It was the best birthday ever! Only a few ounces but my most memorable fish - can still see it in my mind now 27 years later! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
