LINK-LEGERED FAKE BREAD BEST FOR: Chub

This simple set-up is a great takeanywhere chub rig and can easily be flicked into any likely-looking chub haunts. Pinching a large split shot on to the hooklink will act as an anchor, and the hookbait will waft around enticingly just off the riverbed. This set-up works well as a single hookbait, but if you feel more confident with a bit of loosefeed, swap the bomb for a cage feeder filled with liquidised bread. Because the breadflake is a big bait you’ll have to use a large hook such as a size 6.
