Chub on The Lugg

[@rogerb581]

As Dave says, why don’t I visit this river more often. Such memories, even the dog recalls my boyhood when I had a spaniel that would land fish for me!

Old School vanilla angling. The best way to spend a winters afternoon.

Thanks Terry.👍

I so wish we didn’t live 5 hours away from your beautiful countryside. Excellent video again Dave.

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Mick. It’s 5 minutes from home and I don’t go often enough.👍

[@leroybrownooo]

Great video, me and my dad bumped into you the other day down Belmont. You said you were doing a vid on the Lugg. Good to see it producing nice fish. Well done 👍

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Lee. Was nice to meet and chat. Hope you caught a few on your 2nd day. 👍

[@christhomas856]

Impressive talent on display on the Lugg, as you suggest under fished, and being very local I like it like that!!

[@richardharvey9388]

Enjoyed that Dave,reminded me of days past when I used to fish with my Dad on the River Brue in Somerset.

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

I’ve seen the Brue Rich. I can see the similarities.👍

[@mattcrooks5540]

Nice video Dave; the Lugg looks like a lovely river!

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Matt. It is lovely mate. Maybe we can fit in an evening session next time you’re about.👍

[@minkyandbear]

A real Boy's Own adventure. The anticipation of the bite and the excitement of the hidden Gem, really enjoyable stuff Dave and I hope you finished the day off in true Wilson style with a chilli and a bottle of red.

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Paul. There was a bottle of red floating around that night.👍

[@markcathcart117]

Watching that brings back all the memories of many a winter session on the lugg catching chub on cheese paste! As great as the Wye is, the lugg is still a very special place to be. Be great to see you trying for a barbel in the warmer summer months..

[@damianscriven6267]

Great stuff Dave brings back memories for me as a kid fishing Lugg Mill breakfast in the farm house and I can remember a famous cables peg great days with Cwmcelyn Angling Club

[@b0xerr677]

Currently fishing on the river Kenwater, which is a man-made redirection of the Lugg in Leominster which was used to move a water wheel by the monks. Caught nothing last time, it was my first time fishing. Going again Wednesday and gonna try some stuff I've learnt from you!

[@mattwhite1576]

Great video Dave. Would like to see how you tackle that river in the summer 👍🏻

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Matt. Much better fished in the evening through summer. Lots of touch legering and stalking around.👍

[@M17683]

Great video, good to see you back 🎣🎣🎣

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thank you David

[@barrymillward3944]

That was great Dave, Cheers.

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Cheers Barry.👍

[@paganoutdoors3193]

Really enjoyable video, I too grew up watching John Wilson, his chubbing on the wensum was brilliant, my local river stort, river lea was my wensum, love these short type sessions, is that one of Cadence new des Taylor range of rods?, hadn't realised they did a 1 1/4 tc rod, looks spot on👌, good health and safe travels, cheers craig 🙏 🌿

[@robertcourt8593]

Used to catch a fair few chub from a backwater of the stort behind roydon station...keep saying I'll go for a look down there one day but haven't been for years and years!

[@paganoutdoors3193]

@@robertcourt8593 had a pronounced shelf/ledge on the nearside margin, had some nice chub and bream there, luncheon meat if memory serves, hadn't even thought of that bit for decades lol, walk along the side of the field to get to it..

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Thanks Craig. Really enjoyable session. The Cadence rod comes with 2 top sections which turns it from a nice powerful barbel rod into a real traditional Avon quiver. Really enjoyable to use. 👍

[@aardvarkinstalls]

Great video mate, I'm a new subscriber and glad i was told about you. I live 10 minute walk from the Lugg and my house has a view across the flats. i was wondering ( as I'm a novice river angler) where abouts on the lugg was that, as I would like to be able to walk down with my kit. I live right by the Lugg bridge area and have my HDAA permit.

[@staticshock62]

Did wonder if this was hereford water

[@jonkennard8272]

Dave already loving the video and only a few minutes in. The mention of John Wilson being your hero has already made it for me 😀. Got my heritage centrepin out for a chubing session on sat. First time in a river for nearly 2 years!!! Dave is that on the hda ticket?

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Yes Jon. H&DAA. Hope you caught a few.👍

[@MrAndrewholde]

great video going to give it a go! what you think about lobs? guess the bread is a bit more selective better chance of a big barble or perch though maybe?

[@anglingescapadeswithdavero2363]

Lobs definitely worth a go. Caught my biggest Lugg barbel on a lob.👍

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

lovely video ty subbed too

[@benfromtheford]

Hi Dave, I know this is an old video but where abouts on the lugg was this? I've fished wergins Bridge for trout with some good success and noticed som big chub in the margins. Went down to try and target them but ended up surrounded by bullocks which made it Impossible and a little scary! 🤣

[@SH66667]

Few hundred yards upstream of lugg bridge and lugg meadows
