BARBEL ARE PERHAPS THE MOST REVERED OF ALL COARSE FISH, AND FOR MANY ANGLERS THE PERSUIT OF THIS SPECIES BECOMES AN OBSESSION.

It is little wonder for there is no doubt that the barbel is the hardest fighting coarse fish.

When hooked, a barbel uses pure muscle power in the water to create an awe-inspiring, charging fight which will leave you breathless or fishless,depending on whether you are tackled up to cope with trying to stop a veritable steam train.

The Embalse la Pedera at Torremendo as some great barbel fishing to offer, large catches are being taken up to 25 fi sh in one session are common, sadly best weights are only in the 4kg range. For those anglers who have not as yet come in contact with the barbel now is your chance at this venue. A 1kg fi sh will steal your rod and reel in a flash, do not leave tackle unattended whilst these rascals are around.

Float fishing with maggots or melon seeds, yes melon seeds will connect you.

The bolt rig method is an other brilliant invention which completely reverses original thinking on the need for extreme sensitivity in terminal tackle. The is in the hair rig which fools the fish into taking the bait, but then total sensitivity takes over.

Anglers have scanned the brains of fish and surprisingly found them wanting. They are clever ,certainly ,but can only think about one thing at a time. It was found that fish picked up a bait, pricked itself on the hook and at the same time ,encountered the enormous resistance from a heavy weight its first reaction would be to run away.

The first time I tried it ,the effect was almost frightening. One moment the shallow water was all peace and tranquillity, the next it was mayhem. There was a huge explosion as a barbel took my bait and bolted. A big bow-wave mapped its course across the lake, and my reel was back winding at a crazy speed as the fish took line. It turned out not to be a particularly big fish at only 3 kg.

In many perhaps most cases when using the bolt rig ,the fish actually hooks itself against the weight of the lead. Even if lightly hooked or not hooked ,it is obsessed with running away from danger to think about trying to eject the hook. The method is so effi cient it catches fish even when the angler is not there. He can come back from the pub or local shop and reel in his prize ,raising large question marks about his sportsmanship and the validity of the bolt rig.

Many think it is not fishing at all, and I tend to agree. I mention it only to show how far angling is progressing, as a result of modern thinking.

With this method the barbel will take all meat baits at this venue.
