There must be millions of skerrits in this stretch

There is i had 298 roach for a level 4lb
its boring all peas in a pod, and they never grow.

I spent time looking for a billy and only had 230 for 3-9-15

Pike activity was horrendous theres nothng decent left to eat

They might be tiny and really not what you want to catch but it did make the sections very tight and decisions were crucial as and when to try for a bonus or sit on the skerrits. I needed one of them bonus fish in my section.
