WHATS this ?

[David Gauntlett]

Absolutely Paul. Another odd thing is why hybrids seem to fight well. For instance, a roach/bream cross seems to fight like a damned great roach, rather than a smallish bream. There must be a reason for that? Perhaps it is because many hybrids are actually sterile, so that all their energy goes into growing and fighting....rather than the rude stuff

Cheers, Dave.

Here's a roach/bream hybrid I caught in the canal last year.

A couple of my mates caught what they thought were some huge Rudd from a canal in Ireland, you should've seen the devastation on their faces when I told them that they were Bream/Rudd Hybrids (lovely fish all the same !!)

The prefect specimen pike bait???

Probably one of the worst livebaits going. They tangle rigs due to the tendency to swim up all the time. But when times is hard ............

I'm going Golden Rudd and a good'un too

 

[Chris Avis]

like you say when times is hard !!!

 

[Neil Partridge]

i would say say golden rudd & a 2lb is a very good fish too
