Glad it made it to you safely Stephen :)

Thanks for the order Joe - your book is going in today's post :) Cheers, Andy F

Hi all, The chap that produced this short video emailed me today asking for some promotion and I thought it worthy of posting on the forum: Cheers, Andy F

Hi all, I've recently produced an angling related website for a lovely chap called Tom Bankes who many will have heard of. Tom has recently published a fantastic book called 'Sticklebacks to Throwing Sticks' and has two more on the way. I now have stock of the book in the BFW Shop for anyone...

Hi all, Just a note to say that I now have more BFW Spoppers in stock: https://barbel.co.uk/product/spopper/ A bit more expensive than the Korum ones, but better quality ;) Cheers, Andy F

I'm really gutted to read this news. Keith was one of BFW's earliest members and I remember him offering me masses of help and advice in the early days. A true gentleman. RIP Keith - you will be greatly missed. Andy F

Good luck everyone. I’m hoping to be on the banks of the Wye in the coming week. Tomorrow could well be tench…

Hi all, I've just listed a couple of freshly built, matching ipowers in the shop. Available separately or as a pair: https://barbel.co.uk/product/bfw-i-power-2lb-tc-12-2-matching-rods/ Let me know if you're interested as payment can also be made by bank transfer. Cheers, Andy F

What tragic news - his poor family. So young as well. It certainly encourages you to appreciate life as none of us know what's round the corner. RIP Chris.

Hi all, Welcome to our latest advertiser Dawley Estates on the River Wye who have a new listing with us in our Barbel Directory: https://barbel.co.uk/barbel-directory/barbel-fisheries/#wye Cheers, Andy

Not sure why we'd turn off commenting on this thread, unless things get out of hand, which I'm sure they won't as we're such a civilised and well mannered bunch :)

I now have 15 more black Spoppers in stock for anyone that wants one... https://barbel.co.uk/home/shop/

Come on!!! Don't be shy...?

Hi all, After a few great old photos appearing in the BFW Gallery over the past couple of days, I thought I'd start a thread encouraging members to show off their first ever barbel (I've a feeling we may have done one before but I can't find it). Here's mine; a Bristol Avon fish caught in...

Hi Kevin, Did you have a look on this page of BFW? I'm sure members will have used some of these: https://barbel.co.uk/barbel-directory/barbel-accommodation/#wye Cheers, Andy

Welcome back John! Great to see you here again :) Good luck on those Yorkshire rivers... Cheers, Andy F

Thank you Richard - absolutely brilliant stuff!

I'm pleased to welcome a new barbel guide advertising in our Barbel Directory. Shaun Nurse has been a friend of BFW for many years and is an extremely experienced barbel angler and guide. You can find his advert on this page under the Severn, Warks Avon and Wye sections...

I'll have a chat with @Eddie Bray chaps, though I think we're limited to what's available for conversion. The original mini Spombs are really expensive so once they've been converted are not really commercially viable. I've just contact Spomb again to enquire about a trade account... Cheers, Andy F

Spoppers are now back in stock in various colours :)
