Get Your Passports Stamped! It's the Severn Fish-In

[Lucky]

Those barbel are very addictive, for me it's when the rod goes round and you lift into something that pull's like a train, not mad rushing around, but strong and steady.

Make's me want to get me gear and go out now./forum/smilies/smile_smiley.gif

 

[Claudia Crowther]

I wouldn't know..never had one yet/forum/smilies/crying_smiley.gif/forum/smilies/crying_smiley.gif/forum/smilies/crying_smiley.gif

 

[Lucky]

Well all the better when you do, cos you would have worked for it. /forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif

Have you lightened up your gear yet ?

1 X ROD

1 X NET

1 X LIGHT CHAIR

1 X SMALL BAG WITH BAIT AND A SMALL BIT OF TACKLE IN

1 X UNHOOKING MAT AND SCALE'S

That's it, you are then free to go fishing and catch the barbel of your dream's.

Trust me Jeff I have learnt my lesson/forum/smilies/embarassed_smiley.gif...so where are we going to get me a bertie???/forum/smilies/tongue_out_smiley.gif

 

[Lucky]

Were do you live again, and how long did it take to get were we went the weekend ?

 

[Claudia Crowther]

Salisbury area, it's about a 100 miles strip

 

[Lucky]

The Kennet is closer for you, Newbury/ Thatcham area.

I've not got a ticket for that water, any one know if there is a day ticket stretch on the Kennet ?

 

[Claudia Crowther]

Mike was looking at Winkton, it's in the Cristchurch area, a day ticket stretch, supposingly holding berties too.....might have to take a day of work to fish it during the week, less anglers about/forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif

Kennet sound good too though, although didn't Steve say the barbel are getting rare there?

 

[Jeff Spiller]

Any one know how to change your name that's displayed, for some reason Lucky has popped back up again !

 

[Jeff Spiller]

What about down your way Claudia, didn't Peter take you to some barbel water and are any of those day ticket water's ?

 

[Claudia Crowther]

So far I only ever seen one barbel in my local stretch of the Avon/forum/smilies/sad_smiley.gif

 

[Jeff Spiller]

If they arent there you can't catch them, we'll have a think and see about getting you on a barbel water. Were we were the weekend would be great, but it's a long way for you.

Saying that though I find that I have to travel quite a lot to get to the better river's.

I'm looking forward to seeing the picture's from the weekend and Jim said ****y had a monster, can't wait.

How's it fishing up there lad's, Jim you got your swim back yet ?

 

[Neil Maidment]
