What are the skills to catch herring with a pole?

Herring, also known as black pomfret and snail green. It grows faster and has a bigger body than other fish. They generally live at the junction of the depth of rivers, lakes and other waters. The feeding desire of herring in spring, summer and autumn is very strong, except in winter. Even when the air pressure is low and most other benthic fish are anorexic, they will still swallow the bait and bite the hook. Below, the author will explain the experience and skills of herring fishing in detail from four aspects: choosing fishing position, matching fishing group, using bait skills and walking skills, hoping to help you.

First, choose a fishing location.

If the coastal terrain of the waters where we fish is extremely complicated, covered with trees and weeds, or filled with stones, such places are definitely not suitable for fishing in Taiwan Province. If the waters are lush, there are many branches and stumps, or the rocks at the bottom of the water are uneven, and the stone crevices are wide and deep, or the mud is thick, there is more garbage, and the water surface at the bottom of the water is dirty, it is not suitable to choose a fishing position, and the platform fishing method is used to catch herring. This is because the herring's body is relatively large and its strength is relatively fierce, so it is not easy to control it in a short time after biting the hook. During the struggle of herring, if there are many obstacles around, the fishing group can easily catch the obstacles and cause the fish to escape. At this point, the Taiwan Province fishing group is not as good as the traditional single hook fishing group, so we should pay attention to different treatment when choosing the fishing position.

The first thing to do when fishing for herring in Taiwan Province is to observe the range of herring carefully. In the morning and evening, in the coastal waters, we can see the fish star of herring, which is different from carp. The performance of herring star is actually very simple. Generally speaking, the position changes irregularly when moving. In addition to some small broken bubbles, there will always be some big bubbles, some plant fragments of different lengths, or rotten grass stalks will surface together. Such a fish star position is the main fishing position of herring. In addition, Taiwan Province can choose deep enough waters or places where snails live as fishing spots for herring fishing, especially around stone dams and water entry steps.

Second, the fishing group collocation

If anglers want to catch big herring specially, they must pay attention to the collocation of fishing groups. At this time, fishermen had better choose some powerful combinations. I want to give you a suggestion. First, you can use the 5.4-meter-high super-hard carp pole, then the fishing line, the No.4 main line, the 2.5 or 1.5 strong horse line, the 10 or 12 large-scale hook, then the big float for fishing Luo Fei, and finally the small throwing pole with pulley. Open the release device of the throwing reel, and then connect the fishing line with the hand pole as a throwing rope. It is said that this combination is very effective in catching herring. The fisherman once caught 30 Jin of herring in the breeding river.

Third, bait skills

Under normal circumstances, fishermen will pay more attention to the bait problem when using the platform fishing method to catch big fish, and do not use commercial bait that is too fishy, too fragrant, quickly atomized and easy to attract small fish. Only in this way can the bait remain intact after entering the water, and the big fish can find the bait and bite the hook. Naturally, so is herring fishing. When choosing bait, anglers should pay attention to the use of coarse grains, preferably large pieces of debris, which are resistant to soaking and slow to dissolve, and then mix them with snails and mussels that herring likes, knead the bait into a ball and throw it into the fish nest. As long as herring are around the fish nest, they will soon find bait to eat.

Fishing with a pole or platform, you can also use the method mentioned above to prepare bait, make a nest and lure fish. Of course, you can also hang snails directly on the hook. However, it should be noted that snail meat must be fresh. It is best to use the tender tail of snail meat as bait, so that the hook tip can quickly stab the fish. However, this bait making method is very troublesome, which requires anglers to do it now and smash it now, which is not conducive to fishing and lure.

So we usually use food powder and insects as bait to fish by surface fishing. You can prepare some slightly fragrant commercial bait rich in protein fiber, then add more bran or bean cake, add a small amount of granular food such as broken rice and wheat, take flour as adhesive, and add water to stir and knead to form slowly dissolving bait. When fishing herring in Taiwan Province, you can use two hooks to hang bait, one is powder bait and the other is meat bait, such as earthworm, cricket and silkworm chrysalis.

Fourth, the skills of walking herring

When we are fishing for herring, we must pay attention to the strength of lifting the pole, especially at the beginning, herring will not run away violently. At this time, the fisherman must not pull the herring to the upper layer too early, keep the fishing rod in the ideal bending arc, then slowly lead it to the open place, and then swim the fish away, first drowning in the middle layer, consuming the herring's physical strength. After finding out the approximate size of the fish, pull it up a little, and then let it be frightened by the light. However, fishermen should pay attention to the running of herring, get ready for the rope and be ready to abandon the pole at any time. If the fish is very small, it is easy to catch it with a thick line. If the fish is too big, be careful even when using thick and hard lines.

When it is running, it usually rushes directly in one direction or sinks into the pile. At this moment, fishermen must hold their horses and control the situation patiently. Especially when piling, don't jerk the fishing rod, or it will break easily. Try to let it swim as much as possible under the condition of tightening the fishing line, which will consume its physical strength and is very beneficial to walking the fish in the later stage. When the strength of the herring weakens, it will turn the herring over with the method of walking fish in eight characters.
