Thanks Dave. I totally agree. Works well in other countries. Many Barbel are still spawning in June when the season opens.

Hi Nick, was this Barnsley’s fiskerton stretch? Also are you from oundle? Sure I’ve seen you fishing the nene before.

@ nassington, now Peterborough for me! Been trying for the ever elusive nene barbel for a while and have transitioned to the Trent as it’s close but not tried Fiskerton yet it’s next on the list, went to Collingham on Sunday and had 1 bite last second of the day 12lb12oz barbel!

Lovely video again Nick. The Trent is my next target following the many outings on The Wye. Good to see that similar tactics work and that ringing the bait changes does too. Nice also that there is always the chance of a big one! Was this a day ticket stretch?

I hope you enjoyed the video. Just a note to say I had a long chat with the other angler who was happy for me to fish opposite him. He was targeting close in towards his bank - in the deeper water - so trotting mid-river wasn't going to disturb him in his view. It also meant we could have a nice chat throughout the day.

Hi Nick, great video. I fished your waggler swim on Wednesday with about another meter of water on and the chub are still there and on the feed albeit taking on the bottom so it was feeder all the way. Moved there as the Lucky Stones were pretty much inaccessible due to the height and pace of flow. Great to see you catching them on the drop and shows the benefit of being a bit flexible and trying out things that have worked elsewhere. Looking forward to seeing the next episode.

@WildlifeAndFishing 2 ай бұрын

Thanks and glad you enjoyed it. It's good to hear the chub were still down in that swim. I wonder if they drop back after the spawning period up in the rapids. I've also had Barbel in the lower field swims in the winter. Thanks for your comments as always and tight lines.

I fished 3 different locations Monday to Weds this week and the fishing was the best I've experienced in the last two years that I have been visiting the Wye. If it remains steady or rises a bit whilst keeping the colour, I'm sure you'll be in for a treat.

This stretch used to be full of Chub, you barely get a bite these days from anything. Not to far from here you get 2 Munties dive in the river every morning to get to an island, they spend the day on there until darkness arrives
