I also agree Mick/John with your points made, and yes i agree that Barbel fishing on some rivers is in decline. I've been fishing the Severn for 30+ years and have seen the changes over time, but this season i feel something is wrong.

I fish mainly the middle Severn, It seems that all of a sudden many Barbel have gone and something doesn't feel right ?

I'm interested to see how next season develops now.
