So the first half of the challenge is over, 100 lb's of Barbel from the Wandle....ok lets just stop and think ....100 lb's!!!<br /><br />Most of the Barbel lads on the (free to fish) Wensum are lucky if they get one fish in a season!! let alone 100 lb's worth!!<br /><br />That is one heck of an achievement!!<br /><br />Tight lines Brian<br /><br />Regs<br /><br />AdeAde Lockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14321165091793022236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997330909934674747.post-61263149278912252512011-08-20T12:46:11.841+01:002011-08-20T12:46:11.841+01:00Cheers guys.
