Go on then …what’s your favorite fish and why ?
Me I think its Chub. I see it as the very epitome of an anglers fish. I recon anyone who masters and enjoys Chub fishing is probably destined to be an angler for a very long time.
You can catch them in any weather, on any bait, they are big enough to pull back a bit, cunning enough to provide a challenge, adaptable enough to be found in virtually any venue and usually in swims that need a bit of watercraft to locate. They can be caught on a variety of tactics and can be bold and brazen and tear into a well-placed bait but will also spook at a misplaced footstep and last but not least look like what I consider to be a text book picture of a “fish” !
