Then my float shot under and I was into a fish that was too heavy to be a chub. |
He pole-fished pellet to the trees for a mixed bag of carp, ide, barbel and chub. |
When a chub takes the bait, it dislodges the lead which moves downstream, bouncing along the bottom. |
The young chub seek out the corners of the tank, where small eddies mean the water is moving slower than in the main current. |
This small section of water holds typical Thames weir stream species such as chub, barbel and dace. |
Most of the other top placed anglers struggled for tiny dace, roach, bleak and chub. |
