Lovely conditioned chub, great result. I expect the ones on my local river will be as fat as anything having gorged on lobworms in the fields for the last six weeks. If only I could get to them.

Well done, Gentlemen Both !

Well done Chevin, i love chub. Yes Tinca, it is called a "Polaris Sidewinder" it is good for light Ledger work and works well, finer than a Quiver tip, but alas don't know How Traditional it is though lol.

God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.
