After the success of last year’s Barbel Show, this year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever before, with the emphasis on entertainment and quality brands available for you to try and buy!
Come and meet some of the biggest names in the barbel world; listen to fantastic presentations from top anglers; pick up tips on how to catch more. Buy the latest barbel tackle, clothing, books, DVD’s, rods, reels and baits from the trade room.
Learn how to cast with a centrepin reel by the lake or book a day’s tuition with one of the professional angling guides who will be there.
The centre piece to this year’s show will be Hugh Miles, Wildlife Cameraman extraordinaire (of Passion for Angling fame) showing excerpts from his new project, Catching the Impossible starring Martin Bowler. Come and watch the most amazing footage as Hugh chats about his epic adventure, filming what promises to be the best angling programme ever. Copies of the DVD and book will be available to buy on the day.
As well as Hugh, Bob Roberts will be there premiering his new DVD, Barbel Days and Ways volume 2, Gary Newman will be doing a talk on The Mighty Mahseer and Martin James will be presenting A Mixed Bag. For the nostalgic amongst us, Len Arbery will be taking us for a walk down memory lane as he reminisces about Fishing in the Sixties, while our very own Pete Reading will bring us bang up to date with details about the R&C work over the last twelve months.
This show is open to all anglers whether you are a Barbel Society member or not.
