Alex I hear rumours of the odd one coming out but nothing concrete. I used to see them spawning on the gravel but its only chub ow and has been for a few years. i suspect the odd one remains but for me its not worth fishing for them any more on the river. The chub fishing remains good though...

I have not seen a barbel on the river for a few years now but this one is a big one! Might have to try again as I gave it up for chub!

I fish the Cherwell at Water Eaton. The local farmer believes it is the coffee plant that colours the water. There used to be a healthy population of Barbel but since the 2007 floods they have disappeared. Plenty of chub though and to good sizes. It is still a lovely river to fish. Kevin

Ok mine now works from the home page as well but not from Barbel talk. Kevin

Hi I am still getting the invalid link message for the river reports. Kevin

Another vote for Browns in Leighton Buzzard. I gave up on Leslies a few years ago when as the only customer at the desk they ignored me to take call after call on the phone. And I had a couple of Hundreds quids worth of stuff to buy. I left the stuff on the counter and went mail order elsewhere...

Another vote for Mark Tunley! Excellent rod builder

I have a set and find them very accurate. Easier to carry than large Avons.

I have the old Aqua rover version and its very good. Lightish but very sound.

A syndicate does have the old LBWMC section. I think some of the Browns staff are in it. Suggest you try there for info.
