I'm sure you have seen it before but there is a great picture of Keith Speer with a large float fished caught Ivel fish in the snow, Im sure someone can repost it.
interesting topic, Ive caught lots of barbel and big chub when wading in fast flows and I never use a landing net, for the barbel I just wade back to shallower water and unhook them in the water, to be honest Ive never even considered the strain on the rod tip !!
My golf club is £2k p.a. BAA £30 HDAA £40 ... fishing is cheap as chips ! What Id spend on tackle is the same as anything else, if I can afford it and I want it I'll buy it.
when I used to fish the Kennet with Eipse pellets I found that I could leave the bait in for at least 20 mins, the rod tip would tap tap tap but if a barbel was present it would eventually slam round.
