This book is written to inform, to pique the curiosity, to serve as a ready reference, and to broaden appreciation of this fascinating fish. Fully illustrated throughout its 436 pages with monochrome line drawings and photographs. ' . . . the largest and most detailed study of a freshwater species ever published . . . Everard is also the country's top roach specialist . . . so the book is stuffed with practical information ' - Brian Clarke, The Times ' Even the most experienced roach angler cannot fail to learn more about the habits of roach.' - Fishingmagic.com
