Which is better, seven star drift or vertical drift?

Seven star drift and vertical drift, the former has a long heritage, the latter is very widely popular, the former into the water after lying horizontally on the surface of the water, the latter into the water perpendicular to the surface of the water, so the former is known as lying, the latter is known as the vertical drift.

These two kinds of float, the application of fishing method is different, so in the same kind of fish, the same water conditions, under the premise of the advantages and disadvantages, but on the two kinds of float itself, in fact, there is no advantage and disadvantage, after all, float is just a tool.

If I had to say that there are two obvious disadvantages of the seven-star drift, one would be that it lies on the surface of the water for a long period of time, making it uncomfortable for the neck to watch the drift.

The second is that the seven-star drift fishing group playing far away from the invisible, not to mention more than a dozen meters of the long rod, 6.3 meters of the rod length, it looks quite inconvenient, if the water surface and then start a little bit of wind and waves, it will be looking at the drift of the sigh of helplessness.

Likewise, there are two obvious disadvantages of a vertical float. First, it can't be used in waters with a lot of grass, because the float and the line are at an angle, and the float tends to get stuck in the grass when you start the rod.

Secondly, the float is prone to bursting, that is, the connection between the float tail and the float belly is prone to breaking, which has nothing to do with the quality of the float, of course, the quality of the float, the bursting of the top of the case will be less, but there will be the same, once the top of the bursting, the float will be completely ruined.

Besides the above disadvantages, the advantages and disadvantages of the seven-star drift and the vertical drift, you have to be in the same water conditions, the same fish conditions, and even to clarify the premise of the fishing method, in order to be able to compete with each other.

One, in wild fishing, the cleaner the water, the more obvious the advantage of vertical drift, and vice versa, the more obvious the advantage of seven star drift

If the fishing waters are clean, no weeds, dead branches and other obvious obstacles, theoretically, as long as it can be seen, the fishing rod with a long can be, because the vertical drift is to stand on the water.

Even if the angler, watching the drift, eyes to the end of the drift, there is an angle, but still belongs to a normal angle, watching the drift, it does not look tired.

If you use a seven-star drift, this is a bad thing. Although there are oversized seven-star drifts with larger lead drafts, they lie on the surface of the water and are parallel to the surface of the water.

Mathematically speaking, the distance the eye can see the drifted bean, is the longest, and, because of the viewing angle, the farther the fishing group hits, the more inconvenient it is to see.

But if the fishing waters are full of water plants and algae, and there are all kinds of debris, the advantage of the seven-star drift comes out immediately, as long as there is no hanging grass, no hanging bottom, as long as the hook bait can be put down, you don't have to worry about not seeing the signal of the float clearly.

Second, as far as the fishing method is concerned, the signal of seven-star drift is more simple, and the signal of standing drift is more complicated

Seven-star drift often represents the traditional fishing method, and the standing drift is mainly used in the Taiwan fishing, the two kinds of floating application, in fact, it is the same as the two kinds of fishing method competition.

But again, this is not quite right, because Taiwan fishing itself is derived, changed and developed from traditional Chinese fishing methods, and traditional fishing methods do not have representative fishing methods.

So, from the perspective of the fundamental role of the float, the seven-star drift because of the lead fixed, mostly lead sinking-based fishing, once the float signal, often are the real fish mouth signal.

So it's easier to read, unlike the vertical drifting, there are various drifting phases such as top, pause, shift, point, black, etc. Basically, you can catch the mouth when the drift is moving and lifting the rod.

But this does not mean that the traditional fishing method used by the seven-star drift is simple, on the contrary, if you want to use a good seven-star drift, you must be very familiar with the traditional fishing method, and even need to have real combat experience to the bottom, otherwise, with the traditional fishing with seven-star drift, it's not difficult to catch fish, and you want to catch a lot of fish, catching a big fish, no doubt it's a fool's errand.

On the contrary, the vertical drift is extremely unfriendly to newbies, and after the float enters the water, it is perpendicular to the water surface, which is a three-dimensional effect, so it is normal for the drift tail to move up and down, left and right.

But the interpretation of the drift phase, the float tuning, the state of the hook and bait on the bottom of the water, and so on, is slightly more complicated, of course, because of this complexity.

Let the vertical drift in the actual combat, can be derived from more play, such as slippery lead fishing, slip drift fishing, double lead fishing, lead-free fishing, etc., and this is the seven-star drift can not be comparable.

Three, as far as the price factor is concerned, the seven-star drift is more affordable, while the standing drift is more affordable

The history of the seven-star drift is very long, and it has been recorded at least in the Song Dynasty, while the history of the standing drift is not worth mentioning, and the history of the standing drift is long, and one of the biggest advantages is that it filters out a lot of flashy materials.

Before the emergence of polyethylene materials, the seven-star drift with chicken feathers, goose feathers, the cost is very low, even now the chemical products made of luminous seven-star drift, the price is really not expensive to go.

And the vertical drift is different, expensive vertical drift, a hundred dollars is not a thing, occasionally thousands of floats appear, it is difficult to let the fishing enthusiasts let out a gasp.

As for the expensive and cheap ones, it's not easy to judge which one is better, and for the anglers, the word "thrifty" is the most appropriate way to describe it.

Finally, when fishing was first invented, it was certainly not for recreation and exercise, but with the continuous progress of human production capacity, fishing, obviously, is no longer a means of making a living, but turned into a leisure sport.

So, fishing this thing, really should not be too much formality, can catch fish, traditional fishing with a vertical drift, Taiwan fishing group with seven star drift fishing black hole, are available, there is no need to explore the advantages and disadvantages of how.
