Chub Fishing With Top Surface Lure
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Learning how to target only chub. That was my very first attempt to catch chub only. I was using top water lure replicating bug and i had success. Chub wasn't too big but as for the first time i achievd my target to catch chub. Very enjoyable type of fishing, dynamics are similar to trout fishing - lots of walking, wading, active fishing plus ability to see how chub is taking lure from top of the water - just incredible. It is my learning process, hope you learned something too if you are new in that type of fishing. If you are not new - hope you enjoed watching. Tight Lines my Friends

Awesome Gedis, and yes you “did good” It’s not about how many fish, it about how you caught them and the enjoyment of catching them.
Watching and anticipating surface takes is really exciting and gets the adrenaline going, and as you say, it is similar to fly fishing.
Did you notice that most of your success came from fast into deep and well oxygenated water like at the weir!! They are the best places
for catching as the fish congregate there and have less time to think about the lure. I enjoyed being a part of another great fishing
adventure. Nice that you are being considerate towards your newly born son. He’ll be joining you in no time at all. Phil
You are so right - process and enjoyment is that what counts 😁
Specially trying new for me fishing method and be able to see top water attacks - incredible 😁🎣
Yeah i noticed that similar like with trout - more success where shallow, bubbling water, where fish had no time to investigate what they're eating.
Always my pleasure to take You along 🤝 and can't wait to take my son to firs adventure 😁🎣🎣🎣
Well done mate. Lil bug is a chub slayer. I'm using them since Salmo released that lure, 7 - 8 years ago. Really good lure in both sizes.
Thanks mate 🤝 I just need a bit more of the time to learn how to use it properly. Saying that you're using effectively for so many years - gave me so much more confidence in this lure. Thanks, appreciated 😁🤝🎣
Give the Savage gear cicada surface lures a try. I’ve had chub, perch, pike and trout on them 👍
Thanks mate 😁🤝 I'll order and will try it out. Brilliant 😁👍🎣
The Salmo lil bugs are amazing
They are great catchers indeed 😁🎣🎣🎣
Well done another top vid! And top marks for trying something new :)
Thanks my friend 😁🤝🎣
Great video
I'm not the world's best at this type of fishing but would make a couple of comments
Don't worry about the splash when the lure hits the water I've watced Chub in clear shallow water turn towards it to investigate
I noticed a comment about wire traces If you use one just about any lure will sink I've a couple that even a link swivel is too much
Keep trying This kind of fishing is great fun
Thanks mate 🤝 I'll take in account your comment and will try to remember next time I'll be on a hunt for chub. Well appreciated your comment 😁👊🎣
Another great fishing adventure!
Thanks buddy 😁🤝🎣
I don't have a science behind it but maybe change the treble hook into a single larger... As always great video 👍
Thanks for advice, well appreciated 👍 🤝🎣
Another epic video man!! I haven't forgotten about those lures either, been up to my eyes but they WILL get to you!!!! Hope you and the fam are all keeping well!!!!
Thanks brother 😁🤝
Don't worry about those lures, any time will be good 😁
Thanks for asking, me and my fam doing very well. All new and interesting 😁😁😁
@@ManAndRod And tiring 🤣
So far I'm very lucky with sleep, not tired at all. Not yet 😅🤣
@@ManAndRod oh it's coming!!!! 😂😂😂😂
I bet it's coming 🤣 no escape from that 🤣
Good video, Jackal Chubby also dives 5cm ish on longer casts.
Thanks 🤝🎣 never tried Chubby ssr as i never targeted just chub. Already waiting for order to arrive from Lithuania 😅 shame that in longer distance even them are diving a bit. But i hope they will be working properly. This Salmo lure is losing balance so often, frustrating to fish with. Do u know any lures for chub which would stay on top of the water even in longer casts?
Thanks again 😁🤝🎣
@@ManAndRod I didn't use many lures, but I guess Chubby is still the best option, as it will be on the surface 90% of the time, I myself fish in Neris (with a 1.8m trout rod) so on the further casts it stays under water for a bit, but if your rod is like over 2m or the casts are a bit shorter it should do the job, also for me sometimes it goes on the side, but only if the hook interferes with its work. (if it goes on the ''lip'' or the line, like with all the wobblers)
I guess more experience Chub fisherman would have more info regarding the lures that stay on the surface.
Tsuyoki is good cheaper alternative for Chubby, but it will not be on the surface a lot, as it dives 5-10cm.
Overall for me all the ''Bug'' lures sometimes lose balance, which is really annoying, and all the SSRS have many ''Empty'' attacks, personally I hook 1/7~ fish on a ssr (I am using single hooks tho), and as I said, not experienced enough to give you more info, as I still prefer SR wobblers if it is possible to use them.
Brilliant 😁 thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. You don't need to be professional or super master to be able to share your experience. Everything what you said makes sense and is very helpful. Specially when you are using very similar equipment. My rod is 1.83 😁
I thought that fishing with SSR lures will bring mainly empty attacks but that's absolutely fine. I'm ready to sacrifice some for being able to see those attacks. It's just awesome to see action on top of the water 😁
I have one SR but most places will be grown with tall grasses and will be impossible to use diving lures. In most of the places i will be able to use only SSR.
Thanks you very much 😁🤝💪👍🎣
@@ManAndRod Oh lol the attacks are amazing to see.
SSR might pick up some weeds with treble hooks as well, so single hooks is a good option, but overall,
glad to help! And thank You for making the videos.
Truly amazing top water attacks.
I'm planning to change into single hooks anyway as they're doing less damage to fish. And if it helps with weeds - double win 😁
Pleasure to be with viewers like you and making videos 🤝💪
As well awesome to have viewers from my home country 🤝😁💪🎣🎣🎣
Svaka Cast!
Nice Video nice fishing
Thanks mate, appreciate 😁🤝🎣🎣🎣
Change the treble to in-line single. Less chance of hook tangling with leader, snagging weed and kinder to fish (no double lip hooking). Grease the leader too so it floats rather than sinks, like fly fishing. Enjoy yourself!
Thanks for advice 🤝🎣 I will change to single hooks as i do for trout. Awesome to do less damage to fish and at the same time less snagging weeds. Never heard about greasing leeder - thanks a lot for a tip. Brilliant 🤝💪 what should i grease with, any specific oil would be better?
@@ManAndRod Mucilin (trout fishing) or a very little Vaseline will do the job. Have fun 👍
Thank you very much 🤝

Some nice Chub caught i have caught on the top with Salmo lil Bug and Savage Gear Cicada 3.5g 3.3cm floating lure
Thanks for advice, appreciated 😁💪🎣🤝 already ordered, waiting for delivery 😁 which Cicada colour works the best for you? I ordered brown
@@ManAndRod I have caught on the Black and the Brown one i also have the green one never caught on that one.
Brilliant, Brown will do then 😁🎣
I look forward to watching the vlog i really hope you catch on the brown Cicada.
Salmo Tiny worked better for me. I know it's not topwater lure but it's very shallow running, you should try it :) not expensive also
Thanks mate, appreciate 👍🤝 I'll give a try 🎣 which colour works for you the best?
@@ManAndRod No problem man. Cockchafer and holo shiner worked best, never had any luck on ladybug colour. One of the best lure for narrow shallow streams, trust me 😊
Brilliant 💪 I'll order them both colours 🎣😁
Where are u fishing pal
Try it, do not retract the line after casting, but let the lure flow by itself, fan on the taut line. Use your finger to tap gently on the fishing rod.
Thanks for advices 😁🤝💪👍 will try those tricks on my next chub hunt 😁 any advice and suggestion is so helpful, specially in beginning of something new 😁 thanks mate, appreciated 🤝🎣
@@ManAndRod Salmo LIL BUG is effective downstream of the river on a taut line, it is a natural behavior in nature. Large chubs are more likely to eat such food.
Basically the idea is that the water current sets the lure by itself, then it is the most natural behavior of the lure.
This definitely increases the effectiveness.
Good luck, and I wish you a 60cm chub on the rod.
Brilliant, totally brilliant information 😁💪 Can't wait to try 🤝🎣
Where did you get the beetle lure from great video
It's DM Cricket Lures - Diving Beetle Brown
Bought from their website dmcricketlures.com
I had to wait quite long time until i received this lure as they are from abroad and hand made. Maybe some another website from UK resells them, then would be quicker 🤔
Went first time yesterday lure fishing chub about 4lb such savage take on the lure really enjoyed it
Wow, that's so amazing 👏 they are great fighters indeed. So happy for you 💪🎣🎣🎣
Can you help do you use wire trace or just a fluorocarbon length and a clip to the lure or tie the fluorocarbon each time you change lure Thankyou
I use about 1 meter fluorocarbon and i always using small clip. Much easier and quicker to change comparing with tying every time.
What main line do you use the braid is a nightmare in the wind
Hi. I always use braid line and use about 1 meter Fluorocarbon leeder. It can be bad in wind but with time gets easier to control
