Thank you to Mario Edoardo Tomatis from Milan in Italy for sending this picture of a Barbel from the River Po near the town of Spinadesco.

Mario used a Drennan Matchpro Medium Feeder rod to cast an Oval Blockend Feeder on Milo Special Fortress 0.20mm 4lb Line, with maggots as hookbait on a size 10 Super Spade hook.

Mario is a passionate Italian coarse angler and particularly likes Drennan tackle!

“In my fishing time I use your hooks, floats, feeders, line, rods and reels that have allowed me to achieve significant catches of Barbel, Bream, Chub and other species” he told us.
