Middle Severn session.

9lb 3oz, waggler caught barbel, best of 39 caught over 6 days fishing the Trimpley and Arley stretches of the middle Severn. Most fish during the week, including chub over 4lb, a 1lb 10oz trout, and several pound-plus perch, taken on float-fished caster – by far the best way to catch barbel and chub! Mick Hanley

More Trimpley success

This 8lb 14oz fish was the best of a 20 barbel, 90lb-plus haul in a six hour session at Trimpley. All fish came to waggler-fished casters, and given the recent Forum comments about hook damage to fish, it’s worth noting that all fish were taken on size 16 barbless hooks, minimising likely injury without actually compromising hooked-to-landed ratio. Mick Hanley

Mum's barbel

I am sending a photo of my mum Barbara Chapman's barbel she caught at Trimpley, it weighed 9lb 6.5oz which is her PB. It will be good surprise for her to see the photo on the BAA website as she looks at it every day for the catches and the forums as we have 4 trips a year to come and fish BAA stretches. Kind Regard Darren Chapman

Late September barbel.

This 9lb 2oz barbel was one of eight taken on stick float fished casters during a late September afternoon session on the Severn at Trimpley. Michael Hanley.
