River Extramadura in Spain
Posted: 07 Apr 2010 18:20
Well what a lovely place Extremadura is and the fishing aint bad either, 4 of us fished although only 2 of us fished on all 5 days, we had a total of 131 Barbel between us, with a few Carp and small cat fish thrown in aswell, I myself had 40 Barbel which could of been alot more had I stayed put but I chose to try different area's in search of some larger fish. Most of my fish were in the 4-6lb bracket with Collin who had only ever caught 2 Barbel before that trip catching the biggest at 8lb 2oz. I should of tried fishing lives which apparantly bring the bigger specimens but I was just happy to be catching but I will be giving this a go when i return later in the year. The bird life is amazing with Eagles,Vultures,Kites and Cranes as common as blackbirds, If anyone is thinking about going then I cant reccomend it enough.
