Anybody else read the "Improve your course fishing bankside bible" yet for this month .
It has an amazing section writen by Bob roberts who films barbel days and ways and has underwater proof that lotts of accepted methods for catching barbel are useless.
It shows that the bullying theory is not true and all the fish eat together .
Back leads creat an underwater trip wire to spook fish,on this subject does anyone have good results using anti spook tube with barbel yet?
Most ground bait and pellets get washed away very quickly in all but very few types of river bottoms leaving just a hook bait.
Fluorocarbon hook links are the worst thing possible to use as it spooks the fish more than anything else" yet they are not bothered by supple hooklinks even thick ones that they can obviously see".
"We filmed them with both weed and a braid hooklink draped over their noses yet they show no alarm"
"However, when they touch a fluorcarbon line,which is not only quite stiff but practically invisible in water ,it really spooks them ."
I could go on but I have gardening and other jobs to do in order to earn this evenings fishing .
