A friend has just called me up to tell me that since accidentally hooking a Ribble barbel whilst fly fishing for trout, he's been waging a campaign to catch more of these wonderful fish. So far he's had hold of around 25 fish on heavy nymphs, of which he's landed around half, with the largest being around 10lb, and his best session saw him land 5.
My friend knows no-one else in the region doing this, but he'd love to talk to anyone else who is pioneering this technique. My pal doesn't have an internet connection, so I've told him I'll post something to see if we can flush out any other barbel flyfishers. If anyone's interested in an exchange of info, I'll communicate my pals number through a personal message.
