River Trent : Barbel Fishing : never mind the Bullocks

My second visit to the 'Mighty Trent' and first session on this stretch of the river. A super Barbel made my visit well worth while - but any session on the bank is always a good one in my mind.

I'm new to river fishing and have a lot to learn about the approach to these big rivers. On my recent visit to the Wye I'd been trotting a float but here I try out the cage feeders.
I'm sharing with you what I'm doing, the learning, the mistakes and all. Eventually I'll get the hang of river fishing. With the Trent being 185 miles long the first task is to locate the fish. I'll revisit this stretch several times in the future to really get to know it.

Hope you enjoy watching. Tight lines from me and a tail wag from Dee.

Can't be disappointed with a beautiful fish like that, not the intended species, but obviously the bream weren't around on the day. Another event in the Adventures of Phil, your enjoyment is obvious.
