Chub: fish, able to win

If you have ever sat on the bank of the river with a fishing rod, you probably know about the chub.And it is no wonder, since the chub - the fish are not only tasty, but also very strong and resistant when caught and not surrendering, even after will be on the beach.It is for these qualities representative of freshwater fauna like fishermen, sportsmen, and all lovers of spectacular and vibrant fishing.

interested in this and other fish.Our anglers widely believed that the chub - a predatory fish, fish that should be exclusively on the bait of animal origin.Anyway, it is very difficult to find a book in which he would have cited the opposite opinion.Some authors even suggest that to get a decent copy of this breed only on live bait or with lures.

However, this view can be refuted even by the fact that the fish chub described even our legendary compatriot Sabaneyev, who wrote that it no longer refers to the number of omnivores as readily absorbs not only crustaceans, small crabs and fish finesbut it does not shrink as aquatic vegetation.

Domestic same authors note that the "patriarch" of this kind when they reach 10-12 kilograms in weight are often attacked and juvenile waterfowl, thereby casting suspicion on KGS.Young also chub - fish food are not too picky, eats almost all the food, which turned in sight.But the real treat for them occurs during the mass flight of beetles: at this time they are fed exclusively at their expense.These days in the stomachs of fish caught except the beetles detect something else is simply unrealistic.

Feature chub - even in their territoriality.Use this feature of their "character" fishermen have learned long ago.Each major individual chooses a private hunting area, which nobody will let me.The most common hunting grounds are in the areas between the whirlpool of the river, backwaters, located immediately after the rapids, as well as in other places where the water is calm on the border with jets of fast currents.The fact that the chub, photos which give it a born hunter, in such circumstances, receives excellent opportunity missed stunned flow production.

However, in the hunt for this wonderful fish need to know that in the morning and throughout most of the day chubs prefer to remain in shallow water.It happens that even the largest specimens are found on these shallows, where the water level barely reaches the knee of an adult.In May (when it starts years beetles) anglers successfully use it, rising above the river and running seductive beetle as a nozzle.

With this fishing do not forget that the chub - a fish too sensitive, very careful and clever.While fishing in any case can not be shown in her eyes, as in this case, you will almost certainly spoil everything.We do not recommend for a long time and try to catch on in the same place, no matter how attractive it may seem to you.Fish these highly mobile, often prefer to change the cover and places for fishing.In the case of the slightest suspicion of danger chub immediately took a fancy to leave the place and return to it very, very soon.
