new member.

hi,a new member making first post, i dropped a clanger by posting a reply back into my own page.doh!
so am starting afresh.i have been fishing the kennet for past two seasons.first season was good,with barbel up to
10lb 15oz.some peaks but too many troughs.this season has been more evenly spread.far less blank sessions
with a new pb in october.13lbs ex.{see photo}.i caught this fish again back in feb,after the freeze up,it weighed
13lb 1oz second time.now i wont fish same swim because i dont want to catch it again.i think it is at
optimum weight give or take a ounce.beautiful fish apart from tail damage.off to the kennet this afternoon
for last trip of season for me.all the best.
