Barbel Now Tips


Night Fishing
Safety tips for night fishing can be found here.

Use food containers with white lids to make finding your bait easier, and to make it less likely to be left behind when moving swims, in the dark.

Try to keep the use of a head torch to an absolute minimum. To this end you can stick white tape to a few things in order to make them easy to find in low light. Your landing net pole, for example.You can also stick some tape to your Baitrunners as shown on the left. If the tape is visible, the Baitrunner is not engaged. A quick glance will prevent a rod getting dragged off the rests!
Painting the tops of rod rest heads (John Roberts Windy Rests) white really does make locating them with the rod far easier in the dark and is less outlandish than the luminous heads that are available.
