I still have my original copy of The Mystical Barbel on VHS tape
but no longer have a VHS player

Great nostalgia! I've still got a Seer Power Rover Rod, built by Andy and Jill.The Teme was an amazing river, a perfect barbel environment.

Lovely video but made me sad thinking about how the river has declined to its current state

 

[Barry Peck]

Yes Cliff .. I posted it as it made me remember my youth fishing for barbel with my old chap .
Maybe one day it will be returned to its former glory ..... we live in hope

Yes know what you mean. Feel the same about anything to do with the Dorset Stour!

Great video - just got around to watching this tonight.

No sponsored bait rammed down your throat, no adverts for clothing and no annoying music. Bliss.

For me, the highlight were the short shorts and vest he was wearing. Only bettered by Ray Walton in one of his rolling meat videos where he’s got shirts on, a Barbour waxed jacket and no top on underneath

Proof that the fish are only interested in the last 2” of the gear you fish with.
