Fishing drift adjustment skills

The earliest contact with fishing gear was rod, line, float and hook. At first, I turned a blind eye to everything. Some spent a lot of time and material resources, but I still went further and further. Some have been guided to find a straight road and avoided many detours. Take the float as an example. Nowadays, the floats produced by many manufacturers are varied and dazzling, and I don't know which one to choose.

Floats can be roughly divided into five categories: soft carbon legs, hard tail floats, soft bamboo legs, hard tail floats, hard tail steel legs, and ultra-long floats. Their styles include long and short carbon legs, long and short carbon legs, (with broken tails), soft bamboo legs, and ultra-long steel legs. Wait a minute.

Different types of floats have different performances and different uses. For example, the selected floats are used for leisure fishing, and the pursuit of performance is not too high. It is enough to have floats that cadres can understand themselves. In the competition, there will be different environments and different fish conditions, and each drift type has its own different uses.

Carbon leg soft tail drift has good stability in water, strong wind resistance, relatively true drift letter and good next signal, and is usually used for fishing in competitive competitions.

Carbon leg hard tail drift, its performance is that it is a little slow to turn over in the water, but the next step is fast and the drift letter is obviously accurate. Used for rubbing bait and pulling bait for bottom fishing miscellaneous fish.

Bamboo legs are short, the tail is hard, the performance turns over quickly in water, and the drifting property is good. It is often used to fish in Shui Pi and catch fast fish in competitions.

Bamboo has long legs and hard tail, and its performance makes it turn over quickly in water. Their drifting ability is particularly strong, and they are often used for floating fishing in competitive competitions.

Steel leg hard tail drift is often used for bottom fishing for miscellaneous fish because of its fast turning over in water, strong stability, reliable drifting, good maneuverability and strong cutting power.

There is also an ultra-long carbon leg float with a long tail, mostly 40-65 cm in length. It has good performance, strong wind resistance, and can be as stable as Mount Tai in strong winds and waves. In the competition, because of its long float, the angle between the main line and the floating leg can be reduced in the water, which is much larger than other floats, and it is often used to catch miscellaneous fish at the bottom of the water. Submarine fishing.

After selecting the drift, you can catch the fish. If you want to catch a good fish, you must adjust the drift. First of all, you must abandon secular ideas. The traditional fishing method was gradually forgotten by competitors and replaced by Taiwan Province fishing, also known as hanging fishing.

No matter whether it is bait or empty hook, it should be debugged without the double hook touching the bottom. If the hook touches the bottom and the drift is inaccurate, novices should pay special attention to this, which is also a key step to break away from traditional fishing.

Double bait drift adjustment: this is the easiest to understand. Of course, before drifting, you must first make sure that the bait you rub is basically the same, and then hang the double bait and half water for debugging. When entering the water, the float will slowly sink under the weight of the bait until the tail sinks completely. When debugging, just cut off the weight of lead slowly until the fish eye (one eye, two eyes or three eyes) you want is exposed at the tail, such as adjustment. However, we should be concerned about whether the baits we rub are all the same size, and during the launch, the baits will atomize some weight, and the double baits will leave the ground after several adjustments. In order to avoid this problem, you can catch two eyes if you adjust a purpose with double bait. Three eyes, even five eyes and six eyes can be caught. As long as you like, you can catch lead directly and become a traditional fisherman. As long as you have a wandering letter, it is no problem to speak out boldly. For fishermen, if they are not afraid of floating, they are afraid of floating.

Single hook drift adjustment: only use an empty hook when debugging, adjust it several times, first ignore the weight of a hook, then put on the hook set after adjustment, so that the drift tail is exposed from the water to adjust the fish eye when fishing. At this time, the bottom hook must be undercover, and the hook just touches the ground. This adjustment method is simple and practical.

For single bait adjustment, first of all, the empty hook will not go to the bottom, {hanging a bait ball will slow down the atomization of the bait ball to be adjusted}. When launching, the float will slowly sink under the weight of the bait ball. When debugging, just cut off the weight of the lead skin slowly until the fish eye (one eye, two eyes or three eyes) you want is exposed at the tail of the float. After adjustment, hang a double bait and throw it into the fishing ground. The float will sink slowly with the weight of the double bait. Fishing with three eyes, this drift adjustment method absolutely ensures that the bait ball goes to the bottom and the upper bait ball is suspended, so that the weight of the two baits will not sink because of insufficient floating force, and the buoyancy of the float will not be too large because of blindly adjusting several catches. There is a phenomenon that the bait ball can't reach the bottom and can't be found. The purpose of this adjustment method is to make half the weight of the bait ball suspended by the buoyancy of the float and the other half supported by the bottom. The debugging of this method is the most scientific among many adjustment methods.

Roll the lead skin on the lead skin seat, and the lead skin must be tightly wrapped. How about fishing? Push hard and the lead skin will loosen.

Put the fish float on the float seat and put it into the water. As shown in the figure, the weight of lead makes the float sink into the water, because the buoyancy of the float is less than the weight of lead. After the float sinks into the water, move the float upward to increase the waterline until it comes out of the water. In this way, the depth of water can be measured, and the length of water depth is the distance from the fishing line under the eyes to the lead-based end. So that the water depth can be measured.

After measuring the water depth, you can adjust the drift, adjust the distance between the drift and the lead base to half of the water depth, and then put it into the water, at which time the drift sinks into the water again.

At this time, you can cut off the lead skin on the lead skin seat bit by bit with scissors, and be careful not to cut too much at a time. Every time the lead skin is cut off, the weight of the lead skin will be reduced a little. As the weight of the lead skin is gradually reduced, when the weight of the lead skin is less than the weight of the float, the float will slowly surface.

Let the float float on the water for 4 eyes. If the float rises above 4 meshes, add some lead leather on the lead leather seat to reduce the float to only 4 meshes.

Then hang the food on the hook and put it into the water, and then it will float and sink into the water. This is because the weight of lead skin and food is greater than the buoyancy after hanging food. What you have to do at this time is to lift the float up until it is 3 eyes above the water, and put it down until it is 3 eyes above the water. This is what Taiwan fishing calls "adjusting 4 fishing and 3 fishing", that is, adjusting the empty hook to 4 meshes after floating out of the water and then to 3 meshes after feeding. You can adjust 4 fishing 2, 6 fishing 3, or 4 fishing 4 by combining the above methods ... Among them, adjusting 4 fishing 2 is the most sensitive and adjusting 4 fishing 4 is the most blunt. This is what Taiwan Province fishermen call fishing spirit and fishing dullness. Generally, it's a little dull to drift in places where small fish are noisy. Drift can be reduced when there are many big fish and little fish stirring.
