Hey Carl. I am just starting to get into float and feeder fishing and honestly of the tons of KZbin videos I have been watching lately, this is my favourite video!! Well done and thank you! Can't wait for river season!!

[@cliffdixon6422]

Really helpful video as always Carl. One of my local rivers has a good head of Chub but has very few areas where the depth is more than 2ft - It is also clear and you can watch the fish although, as you rightly point out, one careless footstep and they just melt away. Surprisingly, a static bait tends to be ignored so a few of us who fish it regularly came up with the idea of a 2 no 4 crystal waggler fished double rubber so you could float the bait down but watch the bait and strike when the fish grab it. Has worked well with fish up to 5lb and is real heart in mouth stuff as you watch them come for your hook - Amazing how many times they veer off at the last minute as well!

[@alfieharris97]

Wait, don’t you carp fish at lizards fishery?

[@cliffdixon6422]

@@alfieharris97 Hi Alfie. Yes I do - Most of my Carp, however, fall to float tactics in the margins when I'm fishing for silvers while they ignore the Carp rod! Was out on the Frays at Uxbridge today using the tactics I mentioned, took some small Chub to just over a pound, Dace, Roach and a stack of decent Perch up to the pound. The final cast has me still smiling now - Wiped out my previous PB on Perch with a stonking 3lb 2oz beast that went like a train in the fast water!

[@edwardalmond7472]

The details provided for bait, hooks, and the need for balance of presentation, float use, of casting, the areas and style of waters, likely areas of finding and location. One of the best set of explanations, clear concise and informative. I will subscribe and like, the later action will be rescinded to erase the endless rubbish that Facebook and KZbin then assume must be relevant. I mean how can the blogs of ww2 also be relevant or related to this article. Again cheers

[@russell6777]

Catching Chubb on a lure is the technique I enjoy the most, but a free lined lob worm dangled in a “ chubby “ spot can produce a very quick take and probably a decent size fish, a ledgered cube of cheese in a flowing stream also produces results, great channel by the way 😊

Where I fished only lures, flys and baitfish are allowed. I figured out big chub love tiny drifting bait fish of 4-6 cm. The smaller ones take flys and nymphs and the big ones are often to clever for lures.

Hey Carl, via your competition against Angeln Maximal, I just happened to stumble upon your several channels and could't take my eyes off the screen since. Very entertaining and full of valuable knowledge and tricks at the same time. Thank you very much! Now I've got a question that covers just the opposite of your video: How do you not catch Chubs? I live in north-eastern Germany and fish a lot in rivers and streams of all sizes. From corn to huge wobblers, the chance of a Chub biting is about 90%. It's not that I don't like chubs, but fishing e.g. for Eel and Pike, especially at nighttime, I find it fairly annoying to be thrilled by an off-going bite detector having hooked a chub barely larger than the baitfish itself. Thanks in advance and best wishes, Johannes

[@sasaminic9095]

Colder weather - bigger depth. Warmer weather, like peak of the summer - wade to the middle of the river downstream and throw bait into shallows and speeds. Spring baits: mulberry, sour cherry, small baitfish summer: rain worms, hoppers, under developed frogs, smaller frogs Autumn: mostly sweet corn, try and get fresh from supermarket, small baitfish Winter: Chicken liver, mostly. In deep winter, try and find in the center of the river in deeps. Spring, autumn get to the shallow bank and throw just under some overhanging tree, tree roots, on the opposite bank. Summer, either as already described from deep into the shallow in the days peak, in the morning and late afternoon, throw to the transitions between shaols and sendbanks and deeps, near rapids. You can fish it with floats, on the bottom with heavy leads up from 10oz(30gr). On spinning techniques...basically every type of lures, but most effectively spinners and small crankbaits. It can happen while fishing for bream to catch chub on worms, pellets, and bread. Regarding fly fishing of chub. Apply every single rule as for fishing for stream trout. You have to be invisible, don't wade water, don't wave rod over water, present fly as naturally as possible. 5-6 rod, WTF line, floating line, at least 6' leader and at least 2' tippet. hooks no bigger than No. 8. For absolutely all techniques: they live locally in groups. Rearly leave shelter. Be as less disturbing as possible. If you happen to see some number of them cruising, most you will catch at that spot is few fish. After that either present completely different bait (and hope it works) or move on. Start upstream, and move downstream. When wading in summer, sneak through deeps, and throw far on the bank downstream. Most success I had is: hoppers and corn for livebait. Bigger dry flies and some sort of flys which are acting like half developed nymphs start as dry and when soaked act as wet flys. Don't ven have to look like any known patterns...whatever you make, it will fish. Normal mayflies in every stadium, can't go wrong with them. All this is from almost 20 years of fishing chub. No pictures and no videos... never wear phone to fishing...sorry about that.

Theres a shallow stream nearby that has a deep hole, about 9ft deep but only a few foot across, you have to plummet to find it.

Hello. This is a very informative video, Thankyou. I fish a small river in Milton Keynes about 30’ upstream from a weir gate (the bit that lifts and restricts the flow). Recently I have drawn blanks, not even a line knock. The weed in the river is really awful but the flow and depth varies. My bit is around 3’ deep and shallower nearer the bank, it’s pretty uniform across the river and in plain open water, no overhangs etc. I always float fish and right in the edge of the flow. I catch a range of fish even Chubb but the Chubb are just small Roach size say about 8” long. At least they are fish. Can you advise the best way, including bait, to catch Chubb at this section going by my description. At the moment the water is at a jogging pace in the middle, slowing to a nice walking pace at the margin say 3’ out from the bank. I have lost tackle in the underwater weeds too so it’s best just to fish in the spots where I know I won’t get snagged. Oh and I almost always use white maggots, I’ve not had success with garden worms. Thanks.
