Hi
it fought very hard, as you would expect. Took line off the clutch, and went on several fast, deep, runs. I actually thought I had hooked a carp, as I was fishing for tench. I had to hold it in the margins, until it recovered enough to swim off. Should also explain that the lake I was fishing used to be a river, but the river was re-routed, to allow for a railway line to be built. There is a current running through the lake, produced by springs. This lake dosen't freeze when lakes around it does.

Anyway can the fish be entered into the Barbel of April or not?

John

We will choose the best looking barbel and maybe one other type of fish for the "Fish of the Month".
