If you haven’t tried flyfishing for chub during summer, you can’t call yourself real flyfisherman. You must be prepared for anything: reeds twice higher than you are, deep channels and moss with sludgy water that you must wade through, millions of mosquitos, bever ditshes where you leg can stuck or even be broken. In addition to all this, chubs have become very whimsical so they pick what to eat very precisely. Usualy they don’t like it and turn over leaving huge waves uder your fly. This is when your hands starts to shake… Amazing. It’s tough, but it’s possible. And there are several rules you must obey.
First rule. Eat champions food. Fresh milk, smoked fish and sweet sweet beer.

Second rule. Study local bugs.

Third rule. Be prapared for reeds, mud, water and more reeds.

Only if you use these simple rules in your everyday, you might be lucky to catch anything.
