Here’s a brace winter chub caught from the River Thame on Sunday 17th January just as the river was dropping off after the floods.

Christmas Match Results
The Xmas match was fished on Sunday 19th December with 23 anglers attending what was to be a fairly good day for December. Do bear in mind that the river is normally in the fields or frozen by now so to fish the match at all is a minor miracle and to have so much support was awesome.
A couple of days on the River Thame
The river was slightly up on normal and had a brown cloudy colour.
I set up a waggler on a peg between the Crendon Road Bridge and the By-pass bridge. Fishing slightly under depth with maggot as bait and a regular feed of loose maggots I started to catch a number of small roach and bleak. After about 40 minutes the float went under and I felt a strong pull on the rod.
