A Good Start To The Season

The season got off to a good start on the Tidal Trent, fishing with Gary Newman from the Anglers Mail we managed to net a nice few barbel between us.

We started fishing mid morning friday and soon got into the barbel with a steady run of fish throughout the day, the weather was a bit on the cool side but with the odd sunny shower not too bad. By saturday morning the weather had taken a turn for the worse with a cold North East Wind blowing it felt more like a winters day, and the fish were hard to come by.

Many thanks to the Barbel Society for allowing Gary and myself to fish at the fabulous Sutton On Trent fishery, if you want to read more about the trip and Gary's other angling adventures then get hold of a copy of the best angling weekly by miles, THE ANGLERS MAIL.
