FANTASTIC FLOODWATER FISHING - Approach, Bait, Tackle & Tactics - 5/11/25 (Video 610)

For this session I was on the Wonderful river Wye for some floodwater fishing. With the river rising fast I booked this day ticket stretch last minute as I fancied conditions were right for some barbel action.

In the video I run you through my approach to a flooded river and the tackle and tactics I employ to catch some high water gems.

Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the video.

VLOG
This channel is my angling video diary with every single session being filmed. Some sessions are successful but, as it's fishing, some are less so. You will see everything as it happened on the day, be it good or bad.

COMMENTS
As you will notice the comments are closed on all my videos. I have done this as (I know from past experience) I do not have time to reply to them all and I feel very ignorant not doing so. I don't want you to waste your time writing comments that I will not have chance to read.

Also you will see in the videos I usually do not name venues through consideration for the local anglers. However venues sometimes get named in the comments which is a further reason they are turned off.

Many thanks and tight lines,
