Some recent captures

A trio summer Barbel caught over the week.


6lb 4oz

7lb 6oz

Also I did lose a big Barbel that estimated to be between 11lb - 12lb which could have possibly been a new personal best but it had other ideas and shunned me on a bank of weed and the hook fell out.

6lb 5oz (in the pouring rain)

I did also spot a Perch of a pound and a half minimum whilst landing a small Barbel of 4lb 10oz this morning.

  4. Nice fish. And cool snake.

    Were either of you out on Sunday night / Monday morning? From the tide line it must have been a hell of a flood, wondered if anyone took a photo.
