what methods are most popular when fishing for barbel from a boat? I tried touch ledgering under a local weir last summer but found it almost impossible to differentiate the movements from the bait caused by fish from the movement of the boat...

I got a bucket seat with a rotating seat designed for shooting. It's ace!

What would you do with the seal John?

Prodigy 2.00's and shimano medium lc's are just the works!

Must get off me fat a**e and travel a bit for some better sport.... are any of the middle stretches that are producing BAA ?

give ya a tenner for the secret recipe....... :p

was mild last night in the south west - today would be a decent shout if i wasnt working :(

Nice going David, not the most favourable conditions either!

just placed an order :D

I love the bankside baits, have been using them a lot this season.... caught no chub on them yet tho! I will persevere tho cheers !!
