Bluenose. Yes thats why I want to fish them, especially the Dove.
I know it's been doing some very large barbel last few years, although understand they are not coming from the most scenic stretch.
I hanker more now for the beauty of the suroundings rather than the Fish size.
Hard hat on, but love the Royalty for the history, but not the place itself ....especially when there are many pretty places to fish the Hants Avon.
Just my opinion.
Anyone want to think about how many barbel rivers they have fished / caught from?
Worth a thread anyone?
