Thames Barbel

Where is it being claimed that this fish is 22lb, other than on here?

Are you on the wind-up Victor?

With all due respect anything on Facebook, particularly a private group is about as credible as the Sunday Sport reporting someone's affection for vegetables

I'm questioning it, hence my criticism of the photo, but a few on there that acknowledged it?

Tail very small for a fish of that size

In my opinion this site is far from being anything like Facebook, it is a forum for actual grownups, and there is very little piss taking and stupid comments, just sound and sensible advice for all oh,im not on Facebook but do have access to it and you can stick it up your a**e as far as im concerned!!

Photos can be very misleading, but I do agree it looks suspiciously small for 22lb ! for comparison the fish I'm holding in my Avatar is 16lb 8oz, if it's a genuine mistake then he hasn't caught many Barbel , if his claim of weight is deliberately false then as has been said, he's only fooling himself.... sad really !

A strange photograph indeed.

Silly argument lads.

You can clearly see it in the barbs eye...

You've made my digging end look fat John I told you not from that angle.
