Vintage CENTREPIN Trotting for BARBEL in Autumn - River Wye

This video captures a full day session on the awesome River Wye in Autumn. We had one mission...
...to catch a BARBEL ON FLOAT using vintage CENTREPINS.
The video covers the basic tactics and swim choices, including multiple battles with hard fighting float caught river Barbel, handled well by the screaming ratchets of our vintage Centrepin reels (A 1950s W.R Speedia 4" narrow Drum and a 1960s Match Aerial Allcocks 4" narrow drum).

Great video boys and great fishing .That's a favourite river of mine and have a trip planned mid Sept 😊 . Fingers crossed the levels will be right for float fishing there and other amazing swims .

Well done chaps, some jolly nice fish. I take it the drone didn't plummet into the drink.

Hi, to Yorkshire, nice videos you guys have. I've been fishing with the center pin for about a year now. You have inspired me a lot. There are not as many places in the Czech Republic as in Yorkshire. But I have to try. The tray you made is beautiful, you gave me an impulse. I'll do it too, an original for myself.

Hello gentlemen, Canada here, southwest Ontario actually, I noticed you don’t harvest your fish, bravo for that. Just out of curiosity, having no idea what a Barbel is, if one had a mine, too. Are they edible just curious cause I know nothing about the species or fishing the waters of Great Britain. My local area it’s mainly steelhead a.k.a. Migratory trout. The centre pin rod I use is from a company called North Fork Composites it’s 13 feet. The real however, is British made Kingpin Arrow 5 inch. Just an unbelievable piece of kit. Anyways, great video. I’ll be watching more. Thanks for making them. Being a centre pin, not myself it’s always great to watch somebody else doing it halfway around the world.

What line strength do you use on the pin for barbel 10-12lb?
