Fishing on the River Wye with Ex-Teammates David Seaman & Paul Merson

Merson catches 8lb Barbel for his first ever fish! David Seaman introduces the “Magic Man” Paul Merson to fishing with huge success!
Our ambassador David Seaman is joined by ex-teammate Paul Merson for a magic Barbel session on the beautiful River Wye. Merson is initially sceptical but is converted within seconds of feeling the power of one of the river’s famous Barbel… and they keep on coming!
