I especially liked the brilliant title!

I too have a target of a 6lb Chub this winter. It's going to be hard.

I too love the irony of a 5-16 chub, and as for the 5-27 I think we're getting into Monty Python territory there.

I think you're getting into the specimen mode now Mark, I foresee many visits to Boilies-R-Us and the float rod taking a back seat, I bet you never thought you would see the day did you?

Well done mate, looking forward to reading about the 7-00 now, is next week too soon do you think?

Mark - Another excellent read, thank you.

We do get some good articles on Fishing Magic don't we. (Mark Davenport's "The Origins of an Angling Addiction" is a recent example).

After waiting six years I went and beat that 6-11 fish with one an ounce heavier last night. What a cracker! Not on the float though but it was using Krystonite hooklink.

Creeping ever closer to the seven pounder eh! Mark? What a great fish in its own rights though and especially worthy if it was from the sort of swims you were describing to me on Saturday, well done mate.

What a beauty Mark!
How many beers will it take for you to spill all of the beans?;-)
It's just started raining heavily up here now, the level might rise a bit for Saturday! The excitement is rising I can assure you!
