Love roach, grew up catching them, they were my go to fish as a kid and the ones that got me hook.
Plenty river used to be full of the, bit of dough under a float and it was on.

Wd mate , they have always had that look that a redfin 'messed around' with a carp, or vice versa. Used to get a lot of them around the halllam/dandenong creek as a kid.
Cheers , Rick.

You get some good sized ones in the Yarra from time to time. When I was young they were a lot of fun on the light gear .
