 Having seen an internet post by one of his customers of a 14lb 12oz barbel he'd caught on the Warwickshire Avon at Anchor Meadow Fishery, tackleshop owner Paul Nixon decided to have a go at the venue himself - and ended his overnight session with a personal best of 13lbs 2oz.
Paul, who runs the 'Hooked on Carp' tackle shop in Bedworth near Coventry, was fishing two pegs down from the weir on the island stretch and finished his session with another barbel, 11 chub and two perch both of which were over 1lb.
Just weeks after 15-years-old Ben Tidmarsh proved that age is no barrier to catching good sized barbel when he landed a 12lb specimen, Sussex angler Colin Etherington celebrated his 50th birthday by landing an 11lb 4oz specimen (left) whilst his angling colleague Darren Larouche caught a 10lb 2oz fish to give them both new personal bests. |
In a bid to encourage more clubs to stage their competitions at the venue from Monday to Friday, Worcestershire's Lower Broadheath is reducing the cost of its mid-week match pegs. Club secretaries should contact John Jordan on 01905 429206 or 07985 541146 (mobile) to discuss their requirements as fees will be based on the number of matches booked and the number of pegs required. |
