Nice roach you've got there Darren, i fish for them a lot in the late fall and winter... I have no clue about its weight but it is a lovely little roach... What line do you use on the LT is that a GaryLaFontaine?? Love the 7,9 LT's...

Nice fish, I'd say between 1lb and 1lb 1/2 maybe pushing 2lb.

i'm thinking your closer to the mark rather than 8oz...it was a "nice roach" but i dont think quite 2lb though. but it was the smaller of the 2 that were in the swim with the trout
