Hi guys,
Most of the bigger fish are from thelower Dorset Stour, the Tidal up to Muscliffe. I live in Coventry and fish locally all year, with the exception of a week on the Stour around February/March - sort of an annual pilgrimage since the early nineties for myself and a couple of friends.
Lastyear our visit coincided with some horrendous flooding and the river was virtually unfishable for five of our days there. On the last day the river had just receded towithin its banks, and for me, the Chub Gods smiled - ihad a 6.15, then an hour or solater a 7.08.Absolutely breathtaking to witnesssuch fish on the bank.
I haven't done any summer chub fishing for years, and hadn't fished the Stourin the summer for a long time,but last year decided to use a weeks' holiday and try my luck on the Stour in June.The summer pics in the gallery are mostlyfrom that trip.
Anyway, thanks for the kind words ...and i shallpost the weights asap. (even the one that looks like it'sshat in my hand!)
Regards,
Matt
