I know of one capture that was just over 10lb. Can't remember the exact weight, but it was somewhere between 10lb 2oz on 10 lb 6oz.

I wouldn't want to be using a pole that was somewhere between a carp pole and silver fish pole. That wasn't a particularly big barbel either.

I spy a Cralusso Torpedo.. On the continent they seem to have fewer hang-ups about fishing with methods such as poles or bolo rods for larger species of river fish such as Carp and Barbel.

That's the one I was talking about but I'd got it 2lb out which makes somewhat of a difference.
His Dearne fish was 10lb 4oz.The captor is a former colleague of mine. He's had doubles from the Dearne and Rother and was working on getting one from the Don last time I spoke to him.

He`s not alone, a bloke I talked to last year was after the Yorkshire treble. He`d had doubles from the Don and Dearne and his next target was one from the Rother.

It would have to be telescopic, for the roving Pole angler. FYI, that's an angler who fishes with a pole, rather than a Pole who angles.....though it could be both.
Why the hell would someone wa t to cat h bebel on a pole its bad enough seei g big carp figbt within an im h of its life when some people take far to long to land these fish not hqving a pop at anyone and i can see your idea but its a big no no from me and nope im nkt a barbel society member i just care for the fish i catch

Andy - I'm pretty sure it's not a serious proposition. When conditions are unfavourable and there's little change of catching a barbel, the mind wanders......and espouses all kinds of strange concepts. A variety of Cabin Fever, if I'm not mistaken
I sincerely hope I'm not wrong......

The fish made me do it!
Sire, you talk floaters
This runs along the lines of the marketing thread me-thinks m'loud
But one does raise that flag we are all so proud of, and I cannot but help but doff my capeth in yons direction. One thinketh many a fool can be had by such monument to market trading in the realeth world.
Is this where M'lod has reached such climax in his extensive wealth:w

With barbel in commercials I bet someone has thought of the idea and as the barbel get bigger they may bring out a barbel pole
