Yeah I know what you mean I think the night in question the temperature was about -4 and had been out a few nights before then in -2!! I don’t know about no chance of Barbel, I’ve had a Babrel (9lb 8oz) in conditions of -2 in February (fluke maybe but I was on the bank to get him), but I suppose the general rule would be no chance lets go Chub fishing!! Most of the time I go out on the Severn there is nobody about apart from cows and sheep or if somebody comes with me!!!

Oh I’ve had a Chub in thick fog too couldn’t even see the end of the rod (ah touch ledgering to a new extreme) which was fun when it came to landing it!!
