PATIENCE proved to be the key factor in the capture of this personal-best 7lb 12oz River Trent chub.
It fell to the rod of East Yorks all-rounder Colin Hebb, who’d baited a near-bank overhanging tree with Nutrabaits River Plus boilies at 2pm but had to wait until 9.30pm for the bite.
“As soon as I struck into the fish I thought I’d hooked a barbel, so I was shocked to see a chub!” he tells us.
