Yorkshire Barbel Fishing, Ten Months in the Catching: River Foss Fishing - Ep. 29

[@HOOKEDFishingChannel]

Well done mate, great video and very informative like a documentary. I used to catch a lot of barbel at skip bridge up by the old rail bridge when you could get to it on York side years ago, its only accessible from Leeds water now. You could never give them an inch on the Nidd, just hit and hold to get them in. I had some very big fish on at Widdington last year but lost them all...8 in total...wounded, I think 2 were carp though as I couldn't stop them getting to snags on my heaviest gear. Double boilie worked then but only had one short afternoon session so far this year and no takes, will be trying again soon.

[@riverfossfishing]

Thanks! I fished as close to the railway bridge as I could but like you said very overgrown. Ouse at Widdington is my next target, fished it a lot over the winter but was very tough. Didn't know there were carp in there.... drop me a line if you head over there.

Thanks a lot, I try and capture more than just the fish. Really glad you enjoyed watching it.

Good effort I love fishing both of those stretches, nice and peaceful especially the second 👍

[@riverfossfishing]

Many thanks. I enjoy getting quiet places not many people fish so really suited me. Of course nice to get some barbel too!

Nice video with a lot of beautiful policeman's helmet in the background 👌 lovely barbels 👍

[@riverfossfishing]

Cheers! Much appreciated. That plant is everywhere now, looks nice and the bees like it but understand its not so great otherwise.

Great video. As someone who has recently moved to York, I'm really enjoying your videos and looking forward to the new river season to get onto some Nidd barbel.

[@Scottsoutdoorchannel]

Cracking video, keep going

[@riverfossfishing]

Thanks so much!

[@Grimsbyfella]

Great video and channel mate, love the music too... I’m a fellow York / Nidd angler myself and I sure know those barbel fight hard in the flow! Keep it up mate

[@riverfossfishing]

Thanks, really appreciated! The Nidd has to be one of my favourite Yorkshire rivers, so much character and big fish!

[@Yorkie83]

Brilliant video, nice one

[@riverfossfishing]

Cheers, really glad you enjoyed it!

[@davidprocter1585]

Epic drama! All the better for the wait! After the 1st one I bet you were walking back to the car 3 ft above the ground?, 😆 good videos, fella, I've subbed. Doing some you tube fishing myself, but not been at it long, still trying to build up interest! Keep it up!

[@riverfossfishing]

I can tell you it was a special feeling! Thanks for the sub, hope to catch up again. Happy fishing!

[@fishermario]

I still waiting for my first barbel and chub nice fish well done :)

[@riverfossfishing]

It took me a long time..... stick with it, worth it when you finally get one!

[@brianjenkinson8674]

where abouts on the nidd ? just started fishing again live in york just want some day ticket water ideas, great vids

[@riverfossfishing]

This was filmed all over, I am not sure about day tickets. I would say just get a York or Leeds club membership, it would work out as the same cost as 4 or 5 day tickets and you get access to loads of the Nidd, and other rivers. Most bits of the Nidd have a good chance of barbel.

[@PhilipBrown1967]

Good filming and editing, enjoyed watching, is this the same river foss fishing who commented on my Instagram yesterday, was it you under the bridge when we passed on the. Boat trip on the Ouse!

[@riverfossfishing]

Thanks! Much appreciated. Yes it is, well I was a bit upstream from the bridge.

[@PhilipBrown1967]

River Foss Fishing there was some one fishing away from the bridge too around 6.15pm

[@riverfossfishing]

No idea on time but sounds about right. There were a few people I saw fishing across the day. Hopefully I was the one catching something !

[@fishwithivan8562]

you might find there is a lot of pike in that river good fishing mate

[@riverfossfishing]

Yes I have seen a few...

[@jackdobson3156]

Did you step up the editing in this one? Good video

[@riverfossfishing]

Thanks, yes been editing this one for a while to get it just right.

[@leedobson]

My barbel quest is 46 years old....hopefully one day

[@riverfossfishing]

I can see it becoming an obsession!

[@leedobson]

@@riverfossfishing I think in West Yorkshire I've got more chance of reeling in King Neptune

[@harrymcdonald1665]

well done do you have to pay to fish that stretch

[@riverfossfishing]

They are all part of YDAA, so membership possibly day tickets....

[@michaellutt8333]

Get on the Thames or Trent 2 get ur double

[@riverfossfishing]

Seen some brilliant fish coming out of both, don't know the rivers very well but the Trent is not that far....
