A day of two halves, this morning I did some barbel fishing on the very low, clear river. Spotting fish and rolling a cube of meat to them. A 3lb 2oz fish on the first cast signaled a good morning...

Next up I had a 5lb 0oz fish. Using an ultra light 8 foot spinning rod they all went like stink...

Another three pounder, 3lb 6oz with a very orange tail...

And finishing on yet another three, 3lb 14oz taking my season total to 46 barbel for 201lb 5oz - cracked the two hundred - yeah!
About 11am I dragged myself away, inspired by Danny's success last week I headed to a local pond to Walk the Worm.
Walking the worm is drop shotting with a live worm for bait and perch and pike were the target. Well I walked the worm right around the pond twice - and didn't get a sniff - more practice required...
