What a fish. Fantastic. Congrats on the new pb. Never caught a barbel, but watching some of your videos is making me want to 😊

[@obsessionwithangling]

Thanks mate, barbel are such a great fish to angle for

[@robertkirk1983]

@obsessionwithangling I live in central Scotland, and as far as im aware, there are not many barbel up this way. That river you fish just looks amazing for both barbel and tench!

Wow. Fabulous barbel. Great vid👍

[@obsessionwithangling]

Thank you

[@Gill3spie85]

What a fish Sir... take a bow!! I fish my local River Clyde here in Glasgow, Scotland and I've caught Sea Trout, Brown Trout, Grayling, Roach, Dace, Perch, Flounders + Eel... The Barbel eludes me because I don't actually target that species but watching this catch makes me want to get a Barbel rig set up with some boilies + worm... Which works best? Boilies or Worm Caught 15 fish tonight in 2hrs [6pm-8pm] but need some info/tips/help on catching El Barbel... thanks mate if you can help out lol

[@obsessionwithangling]

Thanks mate Scotland's absolutely beautiful place and I'm up there soon to do some fishing - regarding baits for barbel to be honest boilies and worms are fine , long hooklinks for wary fish and keeping things really simple - good luck mate

[@Gill3spie85]

Cheers mate, appreciate the update/info 👍

[@stephenhawkins9627]

Congrats Lee. I have the stretch opposite the A1 pits stretch on the Worksop book. You can only night fish it if you are affiliated at a club they list. Noticed your peg flow was left to right which would indicate this bank but not at all interested in your whereabouts as I fish mainly the tidal Trent as I don’t like crowds and generally have the stretch to myself. Once again we’ll done on your pb what a beast 👍

[@brianraymen3085]

Hello mate can i ask you a question about my 1st time barbel fishing on the trent i have gone for 18lb main line n 15lb hook length have i gone ott my reel is not yet spooled up but line is on the way, hook lengths are done with fluro, your advice would be very welcome as your fish are !

[@obsessionwithangling]

Id probably go for 12lb fluro hooklink , and if you fish shallow gin clear areas that are snag free then drop down to 10lb.

[@johnnyd9441]

Superb fish pal❤❤ well done 🎉 Im still chasing barbel, last time I've been chasing them on Hoveringham but unfortunately i managed one small skimmer on maggots, fancy stuff like pellets 8 to 14 mm and boilie 12mm didn't tempted barbel... maybe i put to much stuff in water😅

[@obsessionwithangling]

Thanks bud

[@stucrossland3719]

You can't over feed a barrel swim.Once they start feeding they don't stop.Half a bucket should do it.

[@rovingrods]

Loving the videos. Can you tell me the bait, enhancer and where to get it please? Rach and Dave 👌

[@obsessionwithangling]

Any bait will work mate , but if you want to use the bait I use then search for "keybait solutions" on Google. Cheers

[@rovingrods]

@@obsessionwithangling Cheers Lee 👌

[@godlessthefree2880]

Well done mate, you could tell it was a proper barbel the way it fought. Nice to see it looked after properly too but would expect no less from your good self. I'm getting on for 70 now and have never fished the Trent but your videos have convinced me that I really must get up there sooner rather than later. I might only get one crack at it, maybe a 48 hour bash. Would you recommend A1 pits, or somewhere else please? I do have limited mobility issues. Great dangling pal 👌

[@obsessionwithangling]

Go for A1 stretch mate, you can park directly next to your peg , and there's lots of pegs to choose from. Good luck

[@godlessthefree2880]

@@obsessionwithangling ❤ Many thanks to you for your reply. A1 Pits it is then. Save one or two of those big girls for me, don't bag em all 😉

I just done a mid week session on A1 and it was absolutely rammed hardly a free peg. Think I will give it a miss for a while.

Conditions aren't the best, rivers low high pressure typical summer river fishing , roll on autum , having said that I've had a couple nice doubles today.

Awesome fishing! But key baits is a joke... You have to pay 5£ delivery for the boiles and then an extra 5£ for delivery on a spray enhancer... taking into account that you order from the same website.
