One bite but a personal best
MARK Mole took advantage of the Derbyshire Derwent’s redhot form to net this pb 16lb 8oz barbel from the waterway.
Rainfall had left a tinge of colour in the water, so the Birmingham rod placed his faith in a pungent bait.
Mark’s only bite of the short evening session came when the hard-fighting fish found his garlic-flavoured pellet.
