Winter Chub - Martin Bowler

[@peterburn1587]

One of my favourite videos ever . If that doesn't get you going ,nothing will.

[@palper]

Very nice video. Thanks! I've been using the same reel for 13 years, it works with 0 friction and the drag is super precise. Good thing as well is that even wet and at low temperature it will work equally well.

MARTIN IS THE BEST,I WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN LIKE YOU WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.

[@rogerfjohnson2051]

Method is called link ledgering _ very effective as it causes less disturbance than a running ledger as the weight is spread across a number of shot rather than a single lead 😉

[@derekolsen511]

Nice piece martin, keep safe.

[@izunadrops]

Martin is the Man !

[@webgibs]

how does the fluro carbon attach ?

[@billymccorkell1830]

I like your jacket Martin who is it made buy please

[@EddiePedalo]

Chub being sensitive biters is a bit of a myth imo. I use a link method like Martin, but fish a tight line, and don't even use a tip. I use a soft float rod. This method, big baits, big hooks and a stiff hooklength, acts as a bolt rig, and has accounted for dozens of 5lb+ chub. Every bite a pull-round. Martins method is 50% good angling, 50% tradition.

[@paulsmith2703]

Let's slip this straight back so I can pack up and get the fuck out of here 🤣🤣🤣

[@swissguy101]

can you tell us how you made it?

[@MrRichtermo]

Why backwind when you just praised the "incredibly smooth clutch" on your reel? ;-)

[@davidryley4162]

I have to say. You are spot on. Since i have had a decent clutch system. I have never back winded once.

[@davidryley4162]

I am not, bringing Martin down at all. But, he is a high profile angler, who has access to many private fisheries that are not open to all and sundry. I bet this venue is one of those mentioned. These anglers get many priviledges that mortal anglers, do not get to fish.

DAVID RYLEY Looks like Beat 2 at Throop on the Dorset Stour to me which is a day ticket water.

[@TheDubSTEPboi]

juuuuuuuuuussst going to smidge that on to the shank :)

[@jimmy2plates]

anyone know any alternatives to the cake he used? could toasted bread work?

[@wonkylommiter6364]

I hair rig a bit of cork, and mould the cheese paste around that. has caught a few chub for me.

[@spyrothedragon3431]

@@wonkylommiter6364 Saw something about balancing the paste itself with popup mix, so it naturally wafts about without anything else on the hook

[@Ror0009]

Jesus bless

[@stuartcrossland1746]

Drennan double strength is the worse line i have ever used.
