- =============Polite notice, this video was filmed before the current close season==============
On the 22nd of February I headed out on what would be a bitterly windy day
to fish a handful of swims in search of perch. I was starting to wonder and question my sanity about heading out for this fishing trip when a rather large (7lb) chevin would rescue what was a tough trip.
Bait - Air injected worms
Rod - Darent valley 8 foot specialist
Reel - Goture 500GTS

Monster. Look at the gob on it!

hello good luck 👍
Another absolute horse old chap .. from may I say a fairly bland looking stretch of water . I think the days of the crabtee stereo typical swims are long gone .
Fabulous fish again mate …
Take it steady 🌞🌞🎣🎣
Heya Barry! Cheers man! Yes it is actually a nice mixed section, just as you approach the split on the point it becomes semi canalised river, perhaps overly managed by canal rivers trust,but where dont they destroy and overly prune where boats are involved, as usual anglers and fish habitat are a long way down their list!
Hello, very good vidéo and beautiful spots! and fish deserved in this weather! see you soon take care
Merci Eric it was du froid!
Excellent fish Mark, great perseverance. Hope to see you out more soon.

Fish of a life time!!! Well done mate 👏 👍 👌 🙌 💪
Thanks mate! it was a solid scrap.
Great film as always Mark, and what a monster Chub. looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Steffen and it made up for what was one very hard trip!
Great to see you back on the bank Mark, hope the knee's better now. Awesome looking Chub that one.
Thanks James, knees slowly healing but stomach issues are back... had an endoscopy a few months ago and the problem went away, endoscopy came back all clear. So I went back to drinking coffee regularly and i think i may have irritated things.
@@francolinobasco Not so good. I suffer with IBS from time to time. I've never managed to find out what actually triggers it, but when it flares up I take Mebeverine for two or three days and usually it calms down again. I have found that cutting down my sugar intake has reduced the number of flare ups I have. Hope you get over this, I know difficult it can be just to function normally with stomach and bowel pains.
@@jameshanson743767 I have bad acid etc so i am on lansoprazole for stomach, gets me down a bit as i am sure your ibs does you.
@@francolinobasco When my IBS staarted about 5 years ago, it was more like acid reflux and quite often had to try and sleep in an upright position. It absolutely drained me of energy, so I used to take Omeprazole. Not sure if it was the tablets or the acid reflux, it used to depress the hell out of me but I do manage to control things better now. I find getting a good nights sleep is the key to controlling it, and a regular eating pattern.
Awesome fish...after an endurance day...I find that chub in such wintery conditions can give the most super tentative of bites...I kinda surprised a wary big chub took a suspended worm....but then there we are.....
Thanks Hayden, to be fair i have had nothing but good bites on the air injected worms, I think the added lift and wafting about over any river debris makes a difference.
An absolute monster chub , great angling Mark . A fish of a lifetime for river anglers mate , Awesome .
DON'T let Dean Macey know where you fish he'll be watching you in a camo net for tips ..

Great video. Once again. You also look like you've lost a lot of weight. Well done matey!
Cheers Joseph and yes i have lost some timber but need to lose more!
@@francolinobasco also, I don't know if you recall my message about my quest for a Chub to over 7lbs on my local River Great Ouse. But, on closing day I managed one at 7lbs 1oz. Very pleased indeed.
@@joelohalloran200 Yes I remember you saying you was after a large chub. Very well done mate!
Well done for sticking it out,, and rewarded with an absolute cracking chub....probably been asked before,, what is the tip attachment you have please ? Is it attachment for night fishing ? TIA ..
Cheers Michael and the attachment is a Drennan Isotope.
Well mate everything was against you you and you still produced a cracking chevin 7.5 got a right head on it pukka mate not to forget the cheeky jack to nice one mate keep them uploads coming 👊🏼
Cheers mate, yes it was not an easy trip but well worth sticking to it despite my frozen mittens lol
Well persevered Mark through all your discomfort that evening and wow what a Chub, an absolute monster. As always a great pleasure to watch your videos!
Cheers Harry a very tricky trip.
Awesome chub and great video Mark. You stuck it out and how !
Thanks Alex I was questioning my own sanity believe me!
I knew some older guys when I was younger that used to air inject the worms ( night crawlers as we call them) they were using, the largemouth bass used to love them as well as everything else too. You used to be able buy a worm injection kit that was a lot safer than a hypodermic needle, some of the big chain sporting goods stores used to have them, like Bass Pro Shops, Cabelas, etc., I guess you can probably still get those, online too at one of those sites…?!? Just a thought mate, and for anyone else, wouldn’t want to see anyone have an accident or something, you know? Anyhow, absolute fantastic trip mate or session I mean. You take care of yourself my friend, hope you’re feeling better by now. Doug., PS - that’s a good looking jacket you have on there, what’s that say, Carpkinetics? Cool
Cheers Doug if someone could point me in the direction of a safer option i would be very glad! Yes this old wind proof jacket i have had for many many years and it has lasted so well, cost me £25.
@@francolinobasco - indeed mate, no doubt! Cool, nice jacket, seems like it was a good price too! Take care mate and rock on 🤘!
Here in the states you might go to jail for using the hypo needle. They sale a cheap tool called a worm blower. Nice video good buddy.
Thanks Darion and interesting that you can go to jail for just carrying a hypo needle in the states. I will take a look for this worm blower you mention.
Hi Mark what tip indicators do you use? can't find any that aren't lights as well!
I use dennan isotopes and some chemical ones sold on amazon under the brand Qualy Qualy fishing chemical light.
What a chub, what size hook do you fish these air injected Worms mark?
Thank you, for lobs I generally fish an 8 or 6
Hi Mark, what rod is that you're using please? 🙏
It is a Darent Valley 8 foot quiver tip rod
