Arrived at Cleeve Prior today to find the river up and pushing through. So I opted for a heavy lead and a chunk of Spam for bait. Thought I'd missed my chance when I lost a big fish in a snag, but had another bite about 20mins later and this time landed a cracking 12 pounder. Well 11lb 15oz to be exact.

Re: Cleeve Prior BarbelThat's a proper fatty. I'd have a go there myself, but the locals put me off going.

Re: Cleeve Prior BarbelI was a bit wary about going there as I've heard about the 'locals'. But it was fine, completely deserted apart from a couple of dog walkers. And nobody else fishing.

Re: Cleeve Prior BarbelNot quite as big as Meatman’s (at 10lb 1oz) but a very satisfying catch from Cleeve Prior this morning. (07.03.22)

Re: Cleeve Prior BarbelBeautiful fish mate, there's obviously a few lumps around there. Looks like you were fishing by the car park - same area as me. My fish and the one I lost fought like hell, was literally hanging onto the rod for dear life.
