EASY FISHING Last session on the river. 

Amazing brother,, i love u

5.6 pound s

6412mars Hi and thank you. I do enjoy my fishing regardless of species or size, and I’m glad you enjoy your fishing, long ma6 it continue, Bill

IaBarkworm Hi yes both those chub were in peak condition and I thoroughly enjoyed my day Bill

John Lynn Hi I always enjoy myself, the day I don’t I will quit, but after over 60 years I don’t think that will happen Bill

Tim Murdock Hi and thank you. There are two things about fighting chub. That first powerful lunge as they dive for cover/snags etc and their habit of shaking their heads which can loosen the hook hold, so a softish action but still with backbone is what you need. I have caught them to over 5 lbs on a float rod with 2 lb bs line and a size 20 hook and that needs some skill and luck to get them out. Good luck with the Salmon. Bill

The Portsmouth Angler Hi thank you. Well you are well placed to get some really good chub fishing so go for it. Fairly robust tackle and hooks creep up on overhangs, rafts of rubbish etc get a bait underneath and when you get a bite heave otherwise it will be straight into the snags. Have fun Bill

boboneleg Hi it’s nice when a plan comes together and your right, those chub were in peak condition Bill

david inger Hi yes that was a great session and if you are near the Trent you are a lucky man! Bill

Keith Asquith Hi I was happy too but the second fish really got my heart pumping! Bill

Isaak Walton Hi watch the next video you will see me smiling a lot! Deadpan Bill

KAZUYADOG I’m not as I can’t go fishing on the river as the season is closed!! Bill

Keith Haynes Hi they were in peak condition and fought well. I have never fished the Gt Ouse near Olney so I take it that it was good back in the day? Bill

@@easyfishing1936 Thank you for your reply it was.

Take care of yourself at this difficult time.

Trojs Fishing Hi there, yes was a lovely couple of fish and the river was pulling hard. Looking forward to your video’s on refitting your boat Bill

Waldek K Hi dead right in old English! Bill

cargilekm Hi well a good guess but wrong. Do you have to wait to apply for your license? Bill

@@easyfishing1936 Thanks for the reply. Our license runs April 1st to March 31 each year. I have not had one for 20 years. Didn't have time to fish till now. I watched one of your old posts and said to myself. " Even with my bad back I could do that." The rest will be history.

Any Body Hi glad you liked the video. My groundbait mix is done to suit the swim on the day, but liquidised bread/ riddled white bread can be used virtually anywhere and most species like it. I can add white crumb to it to make it bind like concrete or gravel to get it down fast or as in this case to get down fast but then quickly break up. You can get brown crumb in coarse or fine and I like coarse for the feeder as it doesn’t clog up. I use crushed hempseed, fishmeal, molehill soil, flavourings and colouring and make my own mix. Much more fun than just buying a bag of groundbait of the shelf, but I do that as well! Have fun experimenting but remember you can’t take it out when it’s in, so start gently is best advice. Bill

Stephen Asbridge Hi I don’t really care that much but it was a lovely fish Bill

Jack Brennan Hi the river season opens on June the 16th Bill

petemason57 Hi not even in the same park I’m afraid! Bill
