A recent shot of me trotting for Barbel and Chub. |
Barbel are simply stunning creatures. (12.6) |
Floodwater double. |
My personal best Barbel, of 14.06.
|
Vantage points are ideal for spotting feeding Barbel. |
Double figure Barbel carefully released after a great scrap in freezing conditions. |
Amazing looking waters flow through the Avon Valley. |
Just resting up, one of eight from that morning's fishing. |
A good double that was spotted from a tree, one that didn't manage to get caught. |
A perfect specimen from last season. |
One in tow and not giving up. |
Barbel on the float are great sport. |
Nice post, I simply love trotting for whiskers myself.

I don't think there is a better way of catching Barbel than under float, it is by far my favourite method for catching them.
DeleteFancy a trip up this way James ?
ReplyDeleteAlright Martin, I wouldn't mind at some point in maybe late November/December, off to the Trent this weekend so I'm hoping the Barbel play ball, I will try to get to the Avon soon.
