The majestic Chub, scientifically known as Squalius / Leuciscus cephalus, can be found in various breathtaking locations. One such place is the Trme, Saane river tributary, where these fish gather on their spawning ground. In Croatia's Plitvice Lakes National Park, the European Chubb gracefully swims through caves, showcasing its beauty. In a fascinating display of nature's harmony, male Zander / Pikeperch (Stizostedion / Sander lucioperca) fiercely defends its nest alongside the Chub. These two species coexist and protect their young together. Witnessing the European chub and Bream (Abramis brama) shoal is truly a sight to behold. The Rhine River offers an enchanting view from above as we gaze upon the reflection of a bridge while observing Chubb swimming at the surface. Dating back to 1889, Allen & Ginter Cigarettes featured artwork depicting Fish from American Waters series (N39), including an illustration of a Chub. This historical representation showcases our long-standing fascination with this remarkable species. Slovenia's Sava Bohinjka River serves as another spawning ground for these resilient creatures. June 2013 witnessed countless Chubs gathering here to continue their life cycle. Morske Oko Lake within Vihorlat Mountains provides shallow waters that house stunning Leuciscus cephalus. Their presence adds to the natural allure of this picturesque reserve. As calmness envelops parts of Switzerland's Rhine River in Schaffhausen region, one can observe how Chubs sense each other's presence and form cohesive shoals - demonstrating their social nature even in tranquil surroundings. Plitvice National Park unveils crystal clear waters that serve as a playground for various aquatic species including Leuciscus cephalus. Here they swim freely amidst pristine surroundings – a true testament to the beauty of nature.
