Description: This one feels much better. It's a bigger one. a full for this if we have to. I've never been so happy to see a decent bottle. That's that's much more like it.

The River Severn is absolutely stunning place to fish for Barbel. It's surrounded by rolling hills and flow through the valley. It smells the roses along the way. I love catching big fish here.

I've got here early this morning and I traveled with a minimum of kit because I think it's quite important to keep really mobile. I'm gonna drop in all the likely looking Barbel swims

Look at this tiny barbel, he's had a lucky escape and has a tooth mark but does build my confidence. If he's feeding, his grandma will be feeding.

I have my first fight with a barbel in the second swim, they really do fight hard. If you haven't fished for Barbel on this river before, you'd be mistaken for thinking you've got a huge one on.

This little fella was fighting really hard and not a massive barbel. With a backdrop like this, I don't mind. I'm gonna slip him back because I'm sure we're gonna get some more bites.

A barbel in double figures, I'm over the moon with that.
