Chub and Barbel from the River Avon

[@Nick-01536]

Where there is barbel,there is usually Chub,they go hand in hand. I never tire of catching chub,they often come to the rescue and prevent a blank session 👍👍👍

[@philgoesfishing]

Yes, very true. Often the chub beat the barbel to the bait but are very welcome 👍🏼👍🏼

Some lovely Chub and barbel, well done! The tital says River Avon, which Avon is it? Hampshire, Warwickshire?

[@philgoesfishing]

Thanks Harry, it’s the Hampshire Avon

[@martinklein4651]

There is also the Bristol Avon, but you can see it looks like the Hampshire Avon. Lovely fish though.

[@gashead2]

Which Avon, I am thinking Hampshire?

[@philgoesfishing]

Yeah that’s the one, beautiful river!

[@gashead2]

@@philgoesfishing I haven’t fished it for years. Since the pumps went off it seemed to go downhill, has it improved now?

[@philgoesfishing]

@@gashead2 it’s patchy to be honest. Some areas throw up loads of fish but 3 miles up the road it’s hard work.
Where do you fish?

[@Accyboom]

Did the cows just leave? I have a cow phobia. Scare the shit out of me

[@philgoesfishing]

Yeah eventually they left me alone but didn’t get chance to fish that swim in the end.
They were just being friendly and inquisitive I think

[@coastalpathadventures9297]

What’s with the glove?

[@philgoesfishing]

I cut myself and had to keep it dry! not ideal but think I managed it

[@coastalpathadventures9297]

@Phil Goes Fishing oh no how did you do that?
