Be nice to get him back on the bank as well catching those lovely old Barbel like this one he had a couple of years ago, I will let Ray tell you the story on this one If he can type.

Ray, there is no way that fish is 10lb, when I saw the picture first I thought what have you just put back without knowing its true size, I have seen them in the 10-14lb bracket out of the Thames and that fish is every bit the high end of that group. Guess you will need to go and catch it again to find out what it is now :Hat:
