Please Nick make more videos about feeder fishing!! From the basics to the top. Thank you very much for your work. You are the best
It's strange how barbel live on one peg and one peg only, like this one. There was a similar swim on the Thames at Hampton Court back in the day. Fifteen yards away from it and you couldn't catch one.
Nick speed you are crazy 😮lol nice one m8.
What a days fishing that was…Thanks for doing it… As mentioned it is very peggy on yee
Trent . I got a private three mile works section , aint no one had a barble.
Nick speed 💪 a unique method indeed and one I'm sure lots of folk are going to be trying out early next year , I imagine this is going to be the in method when folk get to grips with it mainly as I see it they're just so bloody difficult to catch in the daytime if the conditions aren't right ,yes they're deffo getting them at dusk and night / early doors but in the day fining down is the way forward , I haven't seen a barbel caught on a stretch I fish this year as night fishing isn't allowed but the rods up in the air with pellets / boilies remaining silent maybe the odd one or two but I reckon it's gotta be worth a go as the barbel definitely are getting more difficult daytime's so thanks for the info nick
Well done Nick that pole looks bloody awesome mate noticed the aero pro stayed in the rod bag though.
Nice video! Feel they you might be better with a heavier float still mate😉

Brilliant nick proper arm aching fishing 👍
I've stopped fishing now due to declining ill health, but go back some 20+ years and I fished the Warwickshire Avon for barbel.
I used a 50p sized lollipop float but I had a medium feeder packed with chopped dendrobaenas and hemp and below that was laid some 18 to 24 inches of line on the bed of the river. I used a whole dendra but cut into two as bait.
Took about 20 mins for the first barbel to show and then had 6 by the time I packed up. Unfortunately their size was nothing to write home about. Between 4lb 8oz and 6lb. But an enjoyable summers afternoon.
And what about the fight. WOW! The weekend before I'd been to Clattercote and bagged up on double figure carp. Largest a tad over 15lb. But these "little river torpedos!" They fought harder.
I hope those barbel didn't end up in that keepnet..
I'm going to buck the trend now. Nearly 7 minutes you "played" (you just hung on) that fish for, on proper running line tackle, that fish would have been in the net in a minute or so. If it didn't go in your keepnet I wouldn't be surprised if that fish went belly up soon after release.
