34 THE FISHING-ROD; The favorite haunts of barbel are mill-pools, mill-tails, deep holes, and eddies ; and in warm weather they haunt beds of weeds, and shal- lows; and roost and bury their noses in gravelly or sandy bottoms like pigs: they grub after worms, water snails, and fresh-water shrimps. The angler must remember that barbel have small mouths, and a large bait is less enticing to them than one of small or moderate size. Barbel are also very fond of lurking under steep or overhanging ban...ks : and in clear water they may sometimes be seen lying still as stones on the bottom ; and on such occasions they appear quite fearless and unsuspicious, and are often taken by simply letting down a line and hook with a lump of lead, which being skilfully dropped and pulled sharply, hooks them " foully, " as it is termed, i. E. In any part of their bodies ; and they are then hurried into a landing-net or drawn ashore. When fishing for barbel in deep rapid waters, a hook of the size No. 4 or 5 will not be too large : and when the water has become thickened by rain, a lob worm is the best bait.
