I met Keith on a couple of occasions and he was an absolute gent and a master angler. RIP Keith.

Hi Dan. The answer to your question is maybe. I have seen an article in the Kettering Evening Telegraph dated August 1997 of Barbel and other species being stocked at Finedon Mill after a fish kill as a result of a pollution incident. After further investigation with the club that runs that...

Funnily enough I was listening to that today!!

What about PB smallest fish? I will start the bidding at 8oz.

Pub chuck.

For me it has to be Ian Botham, Charlton, Robson Green and Rex Hunt..... Oh bugger I'm 4 days late. But really for me it would be Wilson, Cribbins and Yates.

Adrian if you fancy catching your first Grayling I can recommend the Derwent around Matlock. Loads of them, Trout and the odd Barbel. Great river. Also the Don is in the middle of Sheffield is a sure bet.

Bain of my life the Erewash is! Had Grayling, Trout, Chub and everything else out the river last season but no ruddy barbel. They are there and I have seen a shoal in the upper river but it has been tough trying to entice them out. River is in a pretty good environmental condition by all...

It has to be the Nene for me. And it's a stretch I have never fished!!

Nice one Brian. Might have to pop down soon!! Have you had One Spot this season.?

I agree with that Brian..Well done on your catch again..

Nice one Nigel! I've had 2 of those fish together along with a 12lb fish but a triptych like that!! Wow. Surprised no one has ever mentioned the other fish down the road from there. Hmm..

I have been catching the stockies for nigh on for the last 2 years at the spots where they were introduced (Pictures on the Ouse page over the last few seasons). I believe my record is 20 in a morning session. 2 years ago they were averaging 8-12oz. The rate of capture has gone down this season...

Kg1.

I believe the Roding is run by Billericay and District Angling Club. The Blackwater is run by Maldon Angling Society Not sure about the Chelmer that high up. I used to fish it mostly for the chub and trout when I was a nipper.

Try the Blackwater near Witham and The Roding close to Ongar. Isolated spots of fish on those 2 rivers. The Chelmer has a few up towards Dunmow area.

A nice big lamprey pellet does the job usually.

Why? This is my local reservoir and last week it was rather low? I guess the Wash and North Sea is rather short of water then. Environment Agency - Flood Warnings FWA Detail

Unfortunately water is an inelastic commodity so we are bugge*** either way!

I'm off to the Don next weekend. Day 1: Grayling and many out of season Trout:( Day 2: Possibly my first Don barbel, who knows!.
