Great stuff hector, I've fished there couple of times for trout but would now love to try for barbel when I can 🎣

brilliant video Hector ,I live very close to a small river it;s very overgrown in paces butI know they are there, watching your video has inspired me to make a start, keep up the great work Hector.

Hi .I bumped into this guy on the train only a few days ago and had a chat with him. He had his rod and bits, we fishermen just have to ask don't we !! , Well, he certainly had a story to tell, and I'm sure any fisherman would love to know his latest catch, what a nice guy. It's not for me to tell, but Hector, you really should let it out! Nice guy, and a great fisherman, keep at it .

Barbel legend! Lovely video - great to see you catching on the Wandle.

thanks for the tipps. Hello from Munich/Germany

Such a great video. Thanks for posting!

Legend, keep on slaying them Hector

Excellent video. I have a friend who fishes the Wandle and he's had Trout on bread! I'd love to fish the fly but having one arm makes this an impossibility- the nearest I could get would be to present a nymph on an ultralight lure setup... Tight lines Hector!

brilliant barbel on the fly way to go thanks hector

Fantastic. I only live 10 miles away from the Wandel. I really must pay it a visit.

Great video. Thanks for sharing

I live 5mins from Hampshire Avon and Dorset Stour. I fly fish Salisbury game section waters. Course fished most of my life for barbel. Now going to get down and try the nymph for chub and barbel Brilliant video

Great video well done Hector.

Barbels are very strong, like a freight train. Lovely fish. I catch them using french/spanish nymph method , especially exciting is sight fishing in shallow water

Great video Hector

Y"ou think you've hooked the bottom - then the bottom comes to life" Growing mastery of difficult water.

very inspiring thank you

Great video Hector. Are you using a fly line or just free lining a monofilament line?

Hector , inspirational video,got a 10 + barbel sitting pretty just waiting for a fly. To nervous to attempt to catch, do I need to get it feed on pellets or hemp before fly is launched. ? Ps I think fly fishing is becoming an addiction. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

Hi Hector, obsessed with barbel ... I know what you mean... 😉

Very cool, what part of the world might I find a Barbel? We don't have them in the western US.

There is almost nothing about fly-fishing for barbel in england. it's full of huge barbel but they just fish them at the fedder. it seems taboo to talk about fly fishing barbel...At least nobody ever answered me when I ask a question on the subject...
