Well Lee,
Rich Frampton said on his FB page on 22nd Nov that, and I quote, "the BS will be lucky to reach 400 members next year".
That's not a rumour.

You don't get Barbus barbus in Spain Garry, the Pyrenees got in the way. The Guadiana system has Comizo, smallhead and Iberian (or common) barbel I believe. It seems to me that comizo and smallhead are the most numerous and hybrids of the two. The smallheads do go well over 20lb they say...
The smallhead barbel in Spain actually fight a damn sight harder than the Comizos in my opinion. The first run of a comizo can be awesome but they soon give up.
Neil,.. All my complaining? I prefer to fish in Spain at the mo, that's all, its nicer and the fishing is good, so are the people.
You however get "annoyed" should you think someone is detracting somehow from this Country.
You posted "I really get annoyed off with ex pats that stick the...
Neil, you said........"It is a problem litter, it always is of late, only yesterday I picked up a load from my local Mill Avon, it's the Big Society they say, if we all actually did something about our litter / yobs then it would disappear, always someone else's problem though / 'don't get...
Explore some rivers here Neil!....... I spent 30 years fishing almost all of them. So yes "done" most.

Ex Pat? Where did I say I lived in Spain?....... I said I spent 9 or 10 weeks of the year fishing in Spain. You really must pay attention Neil.
Yup Wye Valley is lovely, go and fish Collingham on the Trent for an illustration of my point. Fishing here generally aint what it was though...
Utter rubbish Paul, Damien was last seen wandering the banks of the Avon in a yellow mini dress and high heels, he was sporting a long black wig with tiara.
I'm told Dave went in search of the Yeti.

I hung my spurs up 3 years ago at 51. I hardly fish in the Uk these days, instead I fish for barbel in Spain for 9 or 10 weeks of the year........... It so much nicer when you have the whole river to yourself, and there are no bivvies or alarms or drunken fools leaving bottles and litter...
There isn't a thread really,......... Pope says contact him if you want help, no one has come up with anything! Some of us say "why"? its only the BS, there are certainly better avenues than Steve Pope to go down. Or is it all just propaganda as Lee asked? Folks have been banned from BFW for...
You cant tell em Lee, just wait a few years until they have all left disenchanted and the next batch of gullible souls have been pushed forward,.... then they will know.
Hundreds of us have gone before you lads, we all left, I once sang the song louder than all of you.
I hear there has...
