Essex angler Russell Bishop with a superb 7lb 12oz River Lea Chub – which appeared in Angling Times last week and earned him a weekly Drennan Cup award!
The Lea has been in red-hot form for super-sized Chub and Russell used paste wrapped 10mm boilies hair-rigged to a size 10 Drennan Super Specialist Barbel hook fished close to snags to outwit the huge fish.
