Long wait worth it for PB Avon barbel
NIGEL Kennard proved patience always pays off in fishing when he banked this immaculate 16lb 12oz Hampshire Avon barbel after a three-and-a-half-hour wait.
The Bournemouth-based specialist chose not to disturb his swim by recasting his rig, preferring instead to wait until his tip slammed round.
“The rig had been in place for a long time and I was just thinking of reeling in to leave for work when I got the bite that I was hoping for,” he said.
