2013 - TROSA NOV 17TH AND A ROACH FEST

        Glorious Trosa , the picture post card town on a Sunny Sunday with temperatures reaching a barmy 10 deg. C !  Thirteen anglers assembled for the expectant Roach-fest after previous weeks of practice fishing had realised a lot of kilos of Bjorkna , skimmer , Roach , Perch and Ide.
       The scene was set for 4 hours of frantic fishing after the  Rutilus-Rutilus  Dogius Roachius , expectancy is in the air , how will it fish ?

After setting up we pre-baited for 5 minutes and bites up ready to Roach and Roll !

He caught quite a lot more but unfortunately found a hole in his net where the fish were escaping.

After match speech and a few trusty words from the Trosa boys.

Hasse winner of B section

Roger winner of A section

Johan 2nd in A section

  What a great day and its not really peaked yet as the weight for 4 hours fishing can get into the 30/40's especially if the Ide show.

   There was an incredible 251,400 kilos of fish caught for an average of 19,340 kilos per man

  That is a staggering 553,4 lbs of Roach for an average of 42.5 lb per man

  Looking at the species caught is looked to be 90% Roach with 10% Ide , Perch , Bjorkna and Skimmer.

     BIG THANKS TO THE TROSA BOYS FOR ORGANISING A GREAT EVENT . FROM NOW TILL IT FREEZES OVER THE FISHING WILL CONTINUE.

          TROSA HEAVEN !
