Hello all,
This is a polite request on behalf of barbel anglers everywhere....
Please, please, please, whatever you think, DO NOT pre-bait any river prior to the start of the season which other people may also be planning to fish.
This is a practice which seems to be getting worse every year, if everyone spends the next few weeks chucking bait in, the barbel will not be at all hungry by the time the 16th comes around.
So please, for this year, give it a miss.
