Barbel Fishing "Barbel Days & Ways Volume 3"

www.bobrobertsonline.co.uk

Volumes Three and Four have been a whole year in the making but were certain you will not be disappointed with the results.

Few anglers know the River Teme better than Dave Mason so it was a real privilege to join him on one of his favourite stretches. We also reveal how we filmed a barbel as it actually took Daves hook bait just half a metre away from a camera.

Everyone knows that fish location is vitally important whatever the species but when it comes to catching barbel the way you feed and the way your bait behaves on the riverbed will make a massive difference to your results. In Volume Three we reveal some remarkable underwater footage of baits being swept away by quite modest flows.

You will see barbel sucking up considerable amounts of feed on open ground and how they react differently to small & large pellets. If nothing else, this film will challenge your baiting perceptions and hopefully it will help you to develop successful baiting strategies for the waters you fish.

Were indebted to Graham Jones of Planet Prints and Armando Piccinini for the footage of a diver feeding wild barbel by hand in an Austrian river. This is a river wed all like to fish!

And if thats not enough, flavour guru and all-round angling pioneer, Archie Braddock reveals the secrets of his dead maggot approach while Bob Roberts shows how (and how not to...) tackle the tidal River Trent.

Sadly Otters seem to be eating the barbel near where we live[south west England] and their footprints are often seen on the riverbanks..
