Simple Chub Fishing Tips & Tactics

[@joshuabutt3439]

I've only fished for carp before.. But last night I went stalking for chub down my local river and i absolutely loved it!! So much more exciting than carp fishing 🎣😁

[@paulm3040]

I used to fish for Chub with a 9ft telescopic rod, no probs, now use an 8ft feeder rod. You don’t need anything special. Keep it simple

[@richardneale6828]

What line would you recommend?

[@connordixon5807]

Love abit of chub fishing on a local beck of mine using my 7ft dropshot rod and a block of cheese

[@jackharris9]

Connor dixon I used cheese no Chubb but a pike hammered whilst I was pulling it out to reposition

Chub, on a lure?! I had zero clue 😊

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Oh yes! Little surface lures are great for targeting summer chub. Very exciting too 👌

[@thediligentdungbeetle8116]

This is going to sound a bit stupid but how would I fight a fish becuase I'm relatively new to fishing and the first fish I caught was quite small and so had no need to fight it

[@petertomo95]

The actual angle of the rod, the drag setting youll most likely have to adjust during the fight depending on size but don't allow too much pull from the fish just enough for it to pull off when it takes off so it doesn't snap you

@@petertomo95 thanks

[@richarddeboer8934]

Hello What kind of rod you use, can you use exemple also a Waggler rod ?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hi Richard, a float rod would be ok, you don't need anything too specialised, although if you wanted to you could look at an Avon style rod with a test curve of around 1-2lb.

British hits hard thanks guys

[@AndersonEntertainme]

Hello where abouts on the waveney was this ? Some good tips :-)

[@AnglingDirectTV]

It was all filmed on a few different stretches. :-) I'm not sure of the exact names, I'll ask Phil for you though.

[@AndersonEntertainme]

ok thanks

[@AndersonEntertainme]

Any luck finding out where it was ? Thanks

Treacle Rc lol

[@leejclark]

What size line is best to use

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hi Lee, 6lb line will suit most situations although if the river is particularly snaggy 8lb line would be a good idea.

[@leejclark]

@@AnglingDirectTV thanks i have 10lb already would that be ok or a bit too much

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hello Lee, 10lb would;d be rather heavy for this style of chub fishing.
