An evening on the Thames Chub Fishing

- Thanks you for joining me on my latest angling trip to the River Thames in Oxford in search of my favorite species the Chub. Its a late start in the day for me as as I'm wanting to fish later into the evening. Slight change in tactics as i will be using a semi fixed bolt rig with a short coated, braided hook length as I've been having a bit of success on the Thames with this rig recently. I will be breaking the code of conduct as I will be using a bite alarm to aid me in bite detection in the dark hours of the evening. In this video I have a surprise capture of a really nice Thames Roach which takes my 12mm hot chorizo boilie and then later in the evening i am rewarded with two fine Chub. Autumn is in the air and my thought's are turning to trying to set a goal of catching a PB chub of 7lb +. Hope you enjoy this latest video of mine and thank you for watching and joining me in my angling adventures.
Thanks for the video Dave. Love this channel. Your kit and style of fishing is similar to mine, difference being you catch much better fish. Keep them coming, cheers! 👍
Thank you, and you're welcome. Hoping for a 7+ chub this autumn, fingers cross.
Love it I wonder if there's carp up this way as well
You similar to my style & way of doing things & also love the chub & Dave some cracking fish their my friend & cant wait for my next session,tight lines
Hi Lee, i love to keep mobile, so i try to keep my tackle to a minimum when chub fishing. Chub are my favorite species if you've not already guessed lol. Be lucky Lee and tight lines.
Great watch Dave. Really enjoy watching your videos mate. You make it look so easy. Tight lines..
Watched it again and.....my type of fishing👍
Nice to see you back Dave, some lovely chub. And the Roach was a beauty too. One thing I would say though, most anglers when they catch large fish, tend to say it's a female. But apart from Tench and Pike, I don't think you can tell the difference. Bream in the breeding season is another. I could be wrong.
Nice work as always Dave. Very enjoyable watch. Keep them coming
Thanks Mate, got more videos coming. I'm in the making of a new video of in search of a 7lb+ chub..
Another enjoyable video. Interesting that you use a hair and a bolt rig for Chub fishing, that's not something I would have ever considered. I was always told that hair rigs don't work for Chub. It clearly does though so I will have to give it a go. Thanks
A long hair if you was using for barbel don't really work, chub are renown for holding the bait and hesitating before the take...hence the shorter hair nearer the hook and the bolt affect.
stunning fish,,, I want to catch one ...great inspiration...🐟
Well done Dave, Another enjoyable video.
Thanks Steve, glad you likes it and thank you for watching my videos.. 👍👍
Enjoyable video Dave. You've had some nice chub there. Thames is producing nice chub this days.
Thanks for watching, yes the Thames is an amazing water. I'm only just getting my head around it at the moment, so much to learn. The rewards are there tho 😊🎣👍
Glad I found your channel, enjoyable and informative. I lost faith in the hair rig for Chub but interesting to see how you used it on a bolt style rig. I guess it's cheesepaste time for you again now were in to November and the weathers turned? ATB MMMD
Oof that roach! Very welcome when they look like that!
Hi, yeah a lovely welcome sunrise i must say. Was not expecting a bite that quick lol..
Hi Andrew, they are sticky baits krill, soaked in a hot chorizo sauce with some boilie crumb sprinkled over them. Unfortunately, the boilies I was using was a little too soft as the kray fish were destroying them in minutes. That krill is a harder bait. Thanks for watching..😊
Thx for the reply. Is the chorizo sauce something you can get fron the supermarket or tackle shops? I don't think I've seen it vefore.
It's from ccmoore, amazing stuff..
Brilliant Dave, cheers mate 👍
Thanks Michael for watching.😊
Cheers dave....brill vid as usual 👍👍
Thanks kev, glad you liked it, thanks for watching.👍😊
Well done Dave 👍
Thanks Paul. Looking forward to the winter months on the upper Thames after the chub.
Another crack video. Nice chub buddy
Have you ever thought about using barbless hooks?
Hi Dave,looks like a RDAA stretch?
I noticed in previous vids you weighed your catch with the rueben heaton 9000 scales and now you use korum...I've just bought the ruebens mate after looking at mixed reviews...whats your thought on them dave.
HI Kev, to be honest I had no problem with the Ruebens until they gave up on me after about three years of use. I do find the Korum better and more forgiving. I lost my tackle bag in the River Wye with my Korums scales in it, however after dragging it out of the river the korums still worked! and i do give them a good workout using them recommend
Great Chub & the surprise Roach. Are the boilies that you use shop bought or handmade?
Hi Andrew, they are sticky baits krill, soaked in a hot chorizo sauce with some boilie crumb sprinkled over them. Unfortunately, the boilies I was using was a little too soft as the kray fish were destroying them in minutes. That krill is a harder bait. Thanks for watching..😊
