Bagged up at Arley

Hi, thought this might be something of interest. I was bailiffing down at Arley left bank this afternoon Sunday 6th January and stopped to chat to member Paul Field. He was catching one a chuck on the waggler and maggot. I stayed to help him weigh the fish which in total was just over 50lb. The net consisted of chub and barbel.There were 3 chub over 6lb with the biggest at 6lb 12oz, the biggest barbel pictured was 11lb, there was even a perch close to 2lb ,brilliant bag of fish! Stewart Mulheron (bailiff).

Big Bidford LB chub

Highlight of a good mixed bag (roach, chub & dace - no perch, they were away on their annual hols). Wag'n'mag. Thanks to the Fisheries team for clearing out overgrown pegs, but don't forget my bacon sarnie next time lads. Chub says: "Damn, fell for that old double bronze maggot trick again!" Paul Hitchman
