I was talking to Graham the other week as we where fishing the Upper Trent and Graham asked me where do you catch a 6lb chub at our end.
I mentioned the Dove but Graham said very unlikely and the only river i can think of is the Swale.
I am not talking catching one when barbel fishing on the Trent but where you could plan to catch one chub fishing.
I am certainly not talking the Dorset Stour or rivers in that area which are prolific for big chub.
My biggest chub is 5lb 12oz and although i have had quite a few fives ,hundreds of 4lb plus chub i have never caught a six mainly i think because i tend to use the float
