CHUB

THERE’S little to beat catching fish on the float, and that’s exactly what Gary Norton used to compile this astonishing haul of big chub.

Using simple waggler tactics, Gary caught five fish in a dream session, topped by a 7lb 15oz specimen, from the River Lea Navigation in Herts. He kept the bites coming by continually feeding casters and fishing the same bait on a size 18 Drennan Super Specialist hook tied to a 2.6lb hooklink.
