Thanks guys

Good evening guys was after a bit of advice really. I've only caught a couple of barbel as I've not fished for them all too often and generally get distracted by chasing other species. I joined the forum to try get some tips and a better understanding of them and I've decided this coming season...

Thanks for the advice mate I'll see how I get on with 50m

So would you say 100m of drennan float fish in 3.2lb directly on the drum would be fine?

Cheers I go it seems good has old line on it and some thicker stuff almost like really thick braid the line was attached to with a water knot is this something I should replace or remove when I out my new mainline on Thanks

Sorry for the late reply haven't been able to get out fishing much but have been offered a jw young rapidex reel that is in pretty good condition just a few small chips to the paint for £50 is that a good deal or a bit pricey?
