The Master 08	River Tees Barbel Record Broken Last Week?	Lead	[-]
Posts: 1 (28/05/08 18:05) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Tags : None I received information that a barbel weighing 14lbs 4oz was caught on the River Tees on the barbel alley stretch at Blackwell Darlington Even though the catch cannot stand as a record because it is closed season it provides mouth watering prospect for the fabulous 16th of June. Anyone know who bagged it or wishes to have an article published in the near future could you please contact me at http://fansonline.net/fishing I will gladly place a direction for other users to this website. Rumours were a 10lb chub was caught on the river last season, does anyone know anything regarding the rumour or able to provide a photo. My PB for chub is 7lb on the tees so i know there is big un's in there. Last Edited By: The Master 08 28/05/08 18:07. Edited 1 time.

Its closed season so why am I sat on my ar5e here being a good angler, when others are flouting the rules, again?? I bet you can't guess that it really hacks me off, its about my biggest bug to be honest. Why can't some people abide by the rules....? Its tanking with rain and the rivers will be coming up but I am not breaking the rules by going.....even if I really want to. I would give the captor zero publicity about the fish but instead name and shame this so called fisherman for being such a %^*&! I would certainly not try and publicise or glorify this person in any way. As for chub the Tees used to hold the record didn't it, somewhere around 8.5lbs if memory serves me right. A 10lb fish though is a different matter altogether. Julian

I'm in total agreement with Julian, this capture should not be given any publicity and why you would want to is beyond me. James

The barbel are just finishing spawning anyway. If it has been caught by a barbel angler on pellets or whatever then its just plain wrong. Why publicise it I just cannot fathom out! Trouble is that there are folk out there that just carry on fishing as normal. How to overcome that I do not know. If it was a salmon angler or a trout angler then I apologise, what a shock that must have been. Julian

Thats not the point again though is it, worm and fly to be used for trout fishing only, not to go and exploit a loophole where you can appear to be trout fishing with worms when in reality you're after the coarse fish or barbel in particular. I have seen anglers in the close season fishing with barbel gear but with worm on the hook, you cannot convince me that they are trout fishing. I think they should ban all baits even naturals like worms and leave it fly only, then everyone knows where they stand. Stella Fella you could be right, it might be a wind up. Then again maybe not!

Most likely. Caught by salmon angler ? Possible, but since there has been virtually no spring run salmon up the tees for many many years and I don't know of any salmon angler that would even bother fishing for spingers on the tees then I'd give you the same odds on and salmon angler fluking it as I would give for pigs sprouting wings and taking flight. If it has been caught then it will most likely have been a supposed trout fisherman, with barbel rod and pellet, with perhaps a tub of half dead worms at the bottom of his rucksack, makes me want to puke, in truth if you can't trust these so called anglers to fish within the law, then how can you trust them to weigh a fish correctly you cant record has not been broken. Again agree with Julian any self respecting angler should stick to the rules as far as I'm concerned, even if it's within the law to fish with worms, fishing in known coarse fish areas with worms is a no no, it's a little unwritten rule that I abide by and others should to.

Thats if the fish was caught in the first place. Julian

Cant grant you access to 14lbers but some very plesant fishing far away from the madding crowd, in places that you would be lucky to see another soul, let me know, i 'd be happy to join you on the banks anytime.

We shall sort something out when the season opens, I'll look forward to it. You are most welcome to join me on the Swale, even though I fish the Swale the most out of all the Yorkshire rivers I find it hard to stop and fish another river if you know what I mean. I know some lovely quiet spots so when you fancy it let me know. I know some parts of the river like the back of my hand, spent my childhood living 200 yards from it! Will definitely fish the Tees with you though. I fancy the Ouse at some point as well, never fished it for barbel, only for other bits and pieces years ago. Got really fond memories of the Tees, as a kid I used to fish matches for Richmond AS and there were only about 4 junior members (I won the Junior cup twice having only one rival each time!!) so when I was 16 they let me fish the senior matches and I spent 3 years doing that til I moved to Leeds. One was fished over Dinsdale, meet at School House. I can't remember which peg I drew but I spotted a shoal of dace and went for it. Got lots of small fish and weighed in about 7lb, to my astonishment I easily won and came home with the Cherry Cup, massive silver thing that my Grandad won in 1959, I won it exactly 30 years later in 1989. I remember the feeling driving home I can tell you, having beaten 25 or 30 anglers, some of them right old wily so and so's! I won 3 more that year too. Great times but I love my barbel fishing now more than anything. Julian

Posts: 87 (02/06/08 00:50) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	why carnt we use 2 rods ,our licence says we can use 2 rods but clubs do say 1 rod ,but why ,barbel fishing 1 rod i do agree ,pike fishing with 1 rod i dont agree with ,we sit all day waiting for 1 bite on the pike gear ,2 rods gives a better chance for this species,as it is a waiting game ,what harm do pike anglers do to the river with 2 rods out at the time ,most of us are curtious and wont invade another anglers swim ,so whats the big deal ,we are doing the match anglers a favour by feeding the pike with our seabaits (not river fish )... j.mallet,i fished a lot of matches in my youth and had lots of 1st ,2nd,and 3rd places ,have the thropys to prove it ,it doesnt make us a better angler winning competitions all it comes down to is where u are drawn and how u fish ur swim ,if the fish are there and u do the correct thing at the time u will bag up ..

Mate just a friendly word of advice if you dont have any concrete info i.e.pics and witnesses keep it to yourself and if its not a capture within the recognized season themn dont bother at all. This site is used by anglers who abide by the rules of angling so illegal captures are of no interest.
