Hello all. My name is Ady and this is my first post on the forum. I've been visiting the site on and off for some time and there are some interesting posts and topics up for discussion.
Here we go. Over the last few decades, barbel, along with other species of UK freshwater fish are growing in size. The specimen benchmark for barbel used to be 10 pounds. Does the forum consider this still the case? If not, what does the forum consider specimen size? Does it consider specimen size venue dependent? If so, what does it consider specimen size for say the Wye, Severn, Trent and Thames? Please discuss.
