Anybody going to the Barbel Show (formerly known as the Barbel Society Conference) this year? Well worth a visit.

I'll be on hand to advise on casting and using a c'pin at the Show if any you are going - lunchtime at the lake, just hope the weather is better than last year (when it pi##ed down all day)
If you can't cast then come along and try it, if you can cast then come along and heckle
. If you just want to chat then fine, do that.
