    Xtracta barbel

    Probably a good bet but plenty of similiar ready-made baits - nice that the range of support baits is extensive. Buy it, use it with confidence in the right places in the right way and you will catch!

    Soft flurocarbon????

    I have used Xline and Tiger Line - the latter is more supple. But to avoid many of the issues Dave G discuses, I regularly reel in through a damp towel.

    when is it going to stop.

    I now feel quite fortunate that when the EA did some work on the Yorkshire Derwent, they discussed it with the local clubs. Result being that (approximately) at every third willow/alder three were taken severly back. Result is some swims in areas unfishable before now have many near-bank...
