It’s almost as if no one has ever watched an episode of Go Fishing? The edits are awful and it is so obvious that this stuff goes on.
Martin has been stitched up and from what I can make out in the clip the fish hasn’t even been unhooked to be rehooked.
Couldn’t care less tbh; if he’d left...
There is lots of emotive stuff from barbel anglers regarding barbel being in stillwaters; I reckon they just need the environment to be wet with enough oxygen and food to live👍
Its only barbel anglers that are bothered, and of course that is totally fair enough.

I miss mine so much 😢
Ive got a butt section that doesnt fit the quiver top section😤 There was something so sound about using this rod for everything river related, I miss it have I mentioned that 😩
Didnt like the Darent Valley 11ft avon/quiver; looks nice but doesnt feel right, big ol' flat...
Massive hard hookbaits - 25mm x 32mm barrels. Thinking behind it being they are too big and hard for the crays to actually get their claws around.
Quite selective in what fish will pick them up too. Had a mega run of doubles with an angling buddy using these.
That is exactly what American and British government does. American and British debt is in the trillions- incomprehensible figures; and most of the money has been used to create a wealth gap.
Sound fiscal management is a soundbite used to gaslight; it is relevant to household budgets perhaps...
Bring the water companies back into public ownership and educate the general public so that they understand that government money is just printed and they can literally print as much or as little as they like. Water companies have a barefaced cheek in saying that they'll finally do what they...
Quest for Barbel by Tony Miles and Trefor West. This is the Holy Grail of barbel books and was pioneering in the info' that it revealed (people take it for granted now).
Elite barbel is excellent, and Trefor's book was great too but Quest for Barbel lays the foundations.
All imho of course.
Not for me, Clive.
My Old Wilson has turned into a bit of a 'Trigger's broom' over the years but now Im left with 2 butt sections that dont properly fit the 2 remaining top sections that I've got🤪
Live system works well, Ive mainly used it in the winter on easyish lakes but know of someone who caught very well on it from the Great Ouse last winter.
Smells lovely too which makes a nice change.
One thing Id say though is I dont think its a food bait as such so wouldnt want to pre bait...
The license money doesn’t go into anything per se, it’s a generic tax like road tax and like all tax money it pays off government debt. They may equate their budget with license fee sales figures but the EA budget comes straight from government like all public service budgets.
The biggest...
This thread gave me the urge to post my smallest barbel ever but unfortuantely I lost all my baby barbel albums on a dead PC.
Then I remembered that the last time a PB thread came up I had the same urge..... so I went on an old thread hunt......... the same thread was started by the VERY SAME...
Clueless, crazy and all the other C words.
Bedfordshire is f**ked.
The urbanisation of the county will continue at breakneck speed for the next 20 years.
The ridiculous trainline to Cambridge is going to decimate the area too.
I don’t know what it takes to sell your soul but we are run by a...
AH doesnt have a flavour per se, just a good base mix and liquids.
They do sell the base mix now which i use just to make my own hookbaits and feed boilies.
Bet your mate was using Scent from Hells. Absolute sick in a bottle.
:cool:
I don’t know who coined that phrase but its very good, (didn’t mean to fire off a narky question but weren’t sure if you were laughing with it or at it!)
:)
Lots of rig problems stem from not following ‘the rules’:
find them, DON’T SCARE THEM, then feed/fish for them.
It can also be...
