How to catch CHUB on CRANKS on the RIVER?

[@davefave4351]

Entertaining and instructive as usual, Andrew. Great Video.

[@AndrewsKnots]

Thanks.

[@val.gas.998]

Good afternoon. Thank you very much for very good video. I would like to know what size of single hook you use for Cranks ? Valdas

[@AndrewsKnots]

Will depend on the size of the crank. Thanks.

[@SHobbyist]

I appreciate the time you take to explain the lure color selection process. Your videos are always very informative.

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad you like them! ✌

[@treforknight1366]

I’ve been enjoying your videos! .. quality tips and great to get insight into your thought processes… since watching your channel I’ve had some great days out and expanded into jig/cheb/creature baits and had my PB chub & perch this summer (and I’ve been fishing for over 40 years! ) keep it up 👍

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad to hear it!

[@stuartduke999]

Some great tips there Andrew thank you ! I fish on rivers for salmon. Best tips for me are the perfection loop knot and the marker pens ! How do you manage to make such brilliant videos in another language . I can't even film and fish at the same time . Awesome work brother, thank you ! 🙂👍🐳🐳

[@jurepetek9034]

HI! I really like the video and it definetly helped me. Last summer I started fishing for chub with lures. I have a 10g baitcaster and a very fine tuned baitacsting reel, that allows me to cast small lures far enough. The lure I used the most was Whopper Plopper 60 and I got some incredible results. Two biggest ones I caught were 48cm& 2.8kg and 53cm& 2.6kg. Try using whopper plopper 60, and believe me it will be VERY fun. Cheers🤝

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad it helped! Thanks for the info.

[@delwigzieful]

Excellent video Andrew lots of information for everybody to learn from i love lure fishing fo chub thank you for posting Andrew really enjoed this tutorial video stay safe buddy,para

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it is very involving type of fishing! Keep safe and tight lines 👌👌

[@soulsearcher57]

Top Chevin chasing and excellent tips to boot.

[@AndrewsKnots]

Thanks.

[@niccolobarbero2812]

nice stuff well explained. always great video man!

[@AndrewsKnots]

Appreciate it!

[@user-nl7vz4wt3t]

Really loved this Andrew! Thanks for showing us this technique! Could you please tell us what hooks and their sizes you use for the lures? And whereabouts do you purchase surface lures like yours from if you don't mind us asking please?👍

[@AndrewsKnots]

Thanks. All info is in the description (and/or other comments) of this video. 👌

[@goldfinger777]

Hi Andrew, great video again! How would you work the lure when fishing in the canal for chub, slow or fast retrieve?

[@AndrewsKnots]

Hi, Depends really. You will have to try various presentations to see what works best on your venue! For some reason often seems canal Chub are easier to catch using soft lures (especially creatures). 👌

[@jamescodling8641]

Great work, Lot's of handy tips. A++

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad it was helpful!

[@fishermanforlife1982]

Nice video,what gear did you use ? Thight lines

[@csabi6356]

Hello. Great video! I enjoyed watching and I love your accent. Can you please tell me what type of hooks you use? I've bought some nice crankbaits that are the same shape, length and color as yours, but mine came with triple hooks, not single hooks.. Are they even any special hooks, or are they just regular circle hooks and I'm over complicating things? And if you have an idea of about what size they are, I'd really appreciate if you told me that, too. Thanks!

[@AndrewsKnots]

Most quality big eyed inline hooks will work 👌

[@pluge7298]

Hi Andrew. When replacing treble hooks with singles what size would you suggest for lures of a similar size to the ones you use. Also would it work on spinners. Really enjoy your videos, full of good tips and info. All the best and thanks in advance.

[@AndrewsKnots]

It depends really on how "fat" those cranks are but in general for 5+ cm. lures I go with the size 4; then 4.5 cm. and below I go with size 8. These hooks sizes, I mentioned, are only relevant to ones as per links in description! Cheers

[@pluge7298]

Andrew's Knots. Many thanks, really helpful.

[@davewalker2167]

Hi.enjoyed that,I very rarely fish with lures but as I saw in ur video u got a pike on that bit u off,don't u ever use a wire trace in case that happens? My local river is full of pike & unfortunately you are guaranteed to hook one regardless!!👍

[@AndrewsKnots]

Thanks. I never use wire traces even when targeting Pike. Then I use 0.50-0.60 mm. fluorocarbon. In this case though, it was very unlikely of me finding that Pike in such a fast water when targeting Chub. Obviously trace is a big no-no when targeting Chub 👌 Cheers

[@mckieassociates3679]

So informative. Thanks! One thing though about the lures. Are you using those cheap Chinese crankbailts?

[@AndrewsKnots]

Exclusively cheap ones! I look at it very simply: cheap lure, which works ok and is correct color will catch me more fish because I won't be afraid to chuck it under branches etc. ✌ Fish surely don't care if it is 50p of 20 quid.

[@rgstreeservices7545]

@@AndrewsKnots Absolutely! I must get some and try your methods

[@ryanhewitt99]

Hi there what lures is the white and yellow one? Great video

[@robinsonluresuk4473]

Hi Andrew, would you recommend the rod? I am looking for a new lure rod for chub and perch. Thanks

[@AndrewsKnots]

Yes, fantastic rod!

[@robinsonluresuk4473]

Andrew's Knots thank you, keep up the good work, your videos are great.

[@mattdunnell2298]

Is there any tips for identifying if any Chub in the River? I have a stretch near me in Yorkshire but I don’t know if it holds Chub. I am not sure what to look for.

[@AndrewsKnots]

If they are not showing up, just try to catch one using small cranks OR small plastics.

[@lulu.r.b]

Great video

[@AndrewsKnots]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@HD-rl9dl]

Nice!!! Very chub)

[@AndrewsKnots]

Thanks!

[@whiskeykilmer1866]

Thank you

[@AndrewsKnots]

Welcome!

[@ВладимирГерич-ц3м]

Уверен на такой реке Chubby SSR покажет мега результат и даже получше чем SR ка в некоторых локациях - прекрассные места

[@AndrewsKnots]

For me SSRs never worked well. It's either SR or topwaters.

[@ВладимирГерич-ц3м]

Just try SSR in MAY or JUNE .... Just try in this months and I'm sure you'll will see results !!!!! 🖐

[@krisztianmengyan7644]

Hi Guys, Is everybody know which crank is at 04:50? Megabass? THX!

[@antoniocampisi7925]

How good is the line lay of the reel?

[@AndrewsKnots]

Very good.

[@antoniocampisi7925]

Did yoy add a shim ?

[@AndrewsKnots]

@@antoniocampisi7925 not too sure what do you mean by "shim". If you have in mind washer under the spool - then no.

[@antoniocampisi7925]

I mean washer ahhahaha, thank you for info, already subscribed ;)

[@laurynasstoskus8]

What type of line is it?

[@AndrewsKnots]

You should all you need in the description ✌

[@SuperMantik]

As I see you changed your knob on fuego. My knob on fuego became sticky somehow after few seasons. Not nice at all

[@AndrewsKnots]

Yes, I did. All moving parts need maintenance. ✌

[@SuperMantik]

Andrew's Knots I mean about rubber. Rubber is sticky now and dont know how to refresh

[@boris75723]

No 1 lure works good for chub in stream and pocket water

[@AndrewsKnots]

Yep.

[@bassman1747]

What is the crank?

[@AndrewsKnots]

It can mean anything.

[@nellololli8798]

Bello il video ma sopratutto i crank che usi .sarebbe interessante sapere la marca e il peso .forse lo avrai detto ma non parlo e non capisco l'inglese. Complimenti ciaoo

[@jmsBungz]

My pal had 1half to a 2lb chub on a 10cm tail to bill, rattling hornet.. Lol

[@AndrewsKnots]

Nice job.

[@alexey_bb]

Твой англиЦкий это нечто...чего только стоит Хер (here) =)))))))))))))

[@mariusstaic4511]

A lot of big chubs on camera.. I can t imagine how many did you catch off camera 😅

[@AndrewsKnots]

Yes, some.
