Hi all, one of my aims this season is to get a barbel on the float - and from the Ouse!
So once you've stopped laughing at the madness of it can you recommend a reel line for the pin that would be good for trotting in fairly deep but pacey swims?
I have always been a fan of maxima for waggler fishing but guessing the sinking nature will not be good on the river?
And also while on the subject of Maxima...has anyone used this in the reddish brown colour for hooklinks, always worked well for Tench for myself but not sure of the colour in clear water for Barbel
Any ideas welcome
Thanks
