Mild temperature spots in mid Winter are becoming ever more frequent of late and the time to hit the banks ready for twilight for some good fast results. With a touch or pre work choosing my spots to fish over the week and pre baiting a few hours before dusk with hemp and Small Elips soaked in Fish Pro. Whilst the waters are relatively low for the time of year and pretty gin clear. 

Chub Fishing on the River Throop

I decided this was going to be my approach. I fished different parts of the mid Dorset Stour at Throop, West Parley and Longham flipping between Rami & Big Cheese Hook Baits on a running ledger rig with size 10 hook. With a pva bag of free goodies and the same flavour pastes on  to top it off.  This approach resulted in fish caught every session, a handful of 6lb plus chub with the biggest coming in at 6lb 10oz.
