I just caught my first barbel since 24th October - a beautiful 7lb fish from the (Yorkshire) Ouse.
Yes!
Still time for another...

Told you there was one in that swim your name on it ! A smashing fish and a pleasure to do the honours with the net .I can think of know one more deserving of a fish after such a long run of blanks in all weathers and river conditions . A classic example of persistence paying .
