We may be a fly fishing club; however a good number of our well established members (Andy Linwood, Peter Hartley Mel Parrott to name a few) are also accomplished and regular coarse anglers.
Invicta member Keith (Mac) McDonald had a cracking days Barbel fishing on the River Severn. He was told not to expect a double, as they are fairly rare on the stretch he fished, but was lucky enough to catch one at 11lb 6ozs. The reason there is no background to the photo is because he was fishing an ordinary club water, and his host didn’t want to give away the location.
