Chub
Squalius cephalus
Chub live in clear rivers and streams, commonly holding position near cover, undercut banks, or slower pools. They are opportunistic omnivores that eat aquatic insects, crustaceans, plant matter, and small fish. Large adults may rise to seize insects from the water's surface.
