Less than a month..

..until the river opens, so who will be going barbel fishing?

What methods will you be using for them?

I want too try for them properly this year, as have heard the fight is incredible. So, will be in this forum asking for a few tips in the not so distant future

Cool Re: Less than a month..

I will be out there after the Rivers open up again. I have some lovely Barbel waters near to me.

My best method is 1/2 Gallon of Casters, 1/2 Gallon of cooked Hemp as goundbait and feeder filler.

Hook baits include the above plus plain luncheon meat, Peparami cubes and scopex luncheon meat.

Methods: Feeder, straight lead and Crowquill Avon Float probably 10 or 12 BB size, great for holding back in the flow

Old methods die hard

No not yet, but may give them try this season.
