Hi Paul, I don't particularly fish for Barbel, or anything else for that matter, just take whatever swims past but Fladbury, Marlcliffe and Pershore on the Avon have all produced some nice fish in the past, usually 3 to 6 pounds on meat. I have done 3 short trips to Marlcliffe i.e. a couple of hours or so in the last couple of weeks with some worms and haven't had a bite, would have been happy with a couple of Perch. Needs to warm up. Good luck if you go out.
