Hey, I'm a Carp Group: Members Posts: 2,571 Member No.: 27 Joined: 17-May 05	Thats a shame :( Lets hope it was old age, and not angling pressure or mis-handling etc. Rob ;) Just read it, looks like the work of mink, probably released from a farm by some bunny cuddling do-gooders :angry: This post has been edited by robona5* on Dec 30 2006, 05:56 PM

Unregistered	I cant help thinking that the amount of pressure of the water this barbel lived in may have something to do with the death.
