Looks like some great Barbel weather on its way.
Always makes me think of " A Quest For Barbel." It always seemed to be strong winds and heavy rain when Trefor West & Tony Miles were out there.
I had a red letter session last Friday when it was mild, chucking it down and blowing a gale.
The river was up and a steady temperature.
I had 7 barbel in an hour twenty then 3 more later on. I returned later and it was completely different conditions..Full moon clear sky and no wind at all!..The Barbel were no longer feeding!
At least not in my swim!
 
I have an overnight session planned for next Wednesday should be fining down nicely with the heavy rain we had yesterday, more to come today and Monday. I have fingers & toes crossed (not easy that :)) for a really good session.
