Great video....thanks for sharing.Such a magical time the hour before darkness.

Great Video full of top tips really enjoyed it, thanks for taking the time to make it.

Great vid very informative showing just how little tackle is needed to fish for Barbel. Thanks for sharing, Graham.

Great angling, a very modest guy with much knowledge.

Nice one shaun , all the best Dave .

Loved it Shaun.

Brilliant Shaun, after you having had to suffer my videos for so many years.. It was a real pleasure to watch this one of yours... I imagine it was mostly (entirely self shot) if so .. well done... you've got it down to a tee.. As you know I'm virtually only fishing for barbel here in France these days and your clip was sooo good. It gave me loads of little tips and ideas I'd not thought of. I'd love to fish one of your rivers one day... cheers Gareth

Thanks Gareth, yes it was all self shot - a proper 'Billy no mates day' :-) Glad you picked up a few useful bits from it. Give us a shout next time you are in the U.K. and I'll see if I can arrange something if the calendar is free.

What a cracking video.

Well done Shaun. I enjoyed that.

Me too

Really little need to use a mat that evening Spike, the grass was soft and properly wet through and barbel don't thrash and bang their heads around like carp. The mat is always with me but sense dictates where it is needed. That evening the soft grass under the wet net was fine with the first double. The second one the 12.12 was photographed in a drier/dustier spot under a bush to bounce more light around from the flash and the mat was used there.

End of day we rag fish around by a hook in their mouth so when people moan cause it was unhooked on wet grass makes me laugh.

Great video, and very informative from a proper Angler. Thanks Shaun, and roll on June :-)

Great video shaun. Just like to know what test curve rods you use to caat them feeders out? They looked heavy!

Michael Bunn The feeders had 5 oz leads on them and the bait inside pushed the weight up to a fraction under 7oz (weighed). The rods I am using are the Free Spirit Big Water Barbel rods which have a test curve of around 2 1/4lb. I have thrashed these rods for over 2 seasons now with no problems at all. Powerful enough to cope but soft enough to still give a healthy bend when a chub is hooked.

Great video!!! and lots of good tips about what tackle to take along and baits I'm going to try and hook me a barbel this year here in Belgium

So true! the smallest things make the biggest difference is one of my life maxims. Good advice my dad gave me and never let me down yet tightlines mate

hi shaun, since watching i have took your advice on hooklength sizes and can say i have had more bites since using them. i also fish the trent around nottingham.................... thanks

And I mean the QUEST ones within the video !

Nice

Great video shaun, a friend recommended it to me. Just a quick question, I loved your Ruck box. What make is it and where do you get them from. ive been lookind for something like this for ages

Hi Shaun... planning to do any new vids ?

Shaun were did u get ur rod rests from ? i like them :) . great video. keep up the good work

Nice video shaun, but i wish you would have talked about the rods, not what coat you ware? my only niggle is the price of your bait, why is it so bloody expensive.. ? always like your video's though its not easy doing them on your own, good stuff mate !

Hi Shaun could you tell me where this area is where you caught the Barbel and is it private or day ticket. I live in Worcestershire and you talk of fishing the Trent which area would you recommend. I will be ringing you soon to look at ordering some bait. Thank You Ian
