The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

Glad to hear that you're catching Bob. Babel fishing is still a little slow up here in Yorkshire probably due to the high water in the early weeks of the season. I've had 3 in four trips but it's been a struggle.

I wouldn't argue with you Olly. I think that we've had a barbel boom over the last few years and I only hope that poor recruitment and inceased predation don't lead to a subsequent bus.
