LD, I've always said that I don't like any specimen fish to fight hard, if I can help it. I used to think other anglers would look down at me for saying that, until another said exactly the same thing to me. This particular barbel did exactly that, it was tug of war in such a tight spot. Be nice to catch it again later on in the season.
That makes the performance of the Adonis even more impressive!
