Whilst barbel fishing on the Thames, Darius Joel certainly had a trip to remember as he banked this stunning 18lb 12oz barbel!
Whilst fishing with a couple of friends Omar and Sam, the trio had their work cut out as the freezing temperatures and icy margins wasn’t helping the fishing but persistence paid off. Darius switched over from a meat hookbait to boilies and fished a little further out the previously. It wasn’t long before he was in battle with a powerful fish.
Well done Darius!
