How to adjust the float

Fish floating is an important link in fishing and harvesting. People can not only judge the feeding situation of fish by the action of fish float, so as to decide the timing of lifting the pole, but also judge what fish is biting the hook by the action of fish float. Nowadays, fish floats are mostly chemical products, or made of bird hair, wood and bamboo, with different properties and shapes. What material is better for fish float? How to adjust the fishing float? Let's have a look. First, how many kinds of fish floats are there?

1, the travel cabin floats.

Advantages: the tail is long and easy to observe underwater.

Disadvantages: cumbersome and inconvenient to operate.

2. Bottom fishing and drifting

Advantages: stable signal and high fishing rate.

Disadvantages: the tail is short and it is not convenient to observe underwater.

3. Floating fishing and rafting

Advantages: when fishing floats, fishing floats are the only choice.

Disadvantages: Not suitable for deep-water fishing.

Second, how to choose a fish float?

1, depending on the amount of lead eaten.

This is an important indicator for choosing a fish float. According to the season and water depth, you can choose a suitable float with high lead content. For example, in hot summer, the target of fishing is generally big fish, so choose a float with high lead content. In addition, if the water depth or fishing rod is long, you should also choose to eat lead, and vice versa.

Step 2 look at the material

The common materials of fish float are reed float and nano-float, such as nano-float, which is very popular because of its high cost performance and little external interference, while reed float has a large lead content and high sensitivity, which is suitable for catching big fish, but the price is also slightly expensive.

3. Look at the drift type

There are roughly long body, short body, quick shoulder and other types of fish floats. Many types are derived from different lengths and thicknesses of feet and tails, and different types have different applicability. The following briefly introduces three types.

Long body drift: this kind of drift has small resistance, fast bottom speed and good stability, and is suitable for deep water and fishing big fish.

Short body drift: Just the opposite of long body drift, short body drift is not stable enough, but it is fast and sensitive, suitable for floating fishing and catching some small fish.

Fine floating body: this kind is more suitable for wild fishing, and can catch the bottom and deep water. Because it is sensitive to the bait signal of long-line fish, it is best to combine long-line fishing.

4. Look at the drifting tail

Fish drift and tail drift are related to sensitivity. The finer the tail drift, the higher the sensitivity. For example, if you want to catch crucian carp in winter, you can choose the long-body drift in the thin tail, because the long-body drift is suitable for catching big fish, and the thin tail can make up for its lack of sensitivity.

3. What material is better for the fish float?

1, peacock feather material

The craft of Peacock Ridge float is complicated, the float is not rough (that is, it is not strong and easy to be damaged), and the quality and craft requirements of painting after shelling are high. There is no feather skin, and its self-weight is particularly heavy, which reduces the floating force. Suitable fish groups: black pit slippery fish, small miscellaneous fish and peacock feather fish, with high fishing stability, low sensitivity and easy draught.

Disadvantages: Peacock hair floats are easily affected by external temperature and water quality due to material reasons, resulting in discoloration of fish floats. Fishing friends who used to choose this kind of float were generally used in competitive competitions, but they often lost their eyes in competitions, so they used it less.

2. Chinese fir raw materials

High sensitivity, strong stability and quick turnover in water. The production process of Balshan float is very simple, and it can be processed by mechanical lathe. Many fishermen can also make it at home. This float has a long service life and can be made into various shapes. This kind of float is very simple to make and low in price, which is very suitable for beginners to fish.

Features: The biggest feature of Chinese fir drift in Bal is its good stability, and it is easy to adjust fishing, and it is not easy to change its eyes due to the influence of water temperature and weather in fishing environment.

3, reed material floating

Reed float is very suitable for some experienced fishermen who steal donkeys in black pits to catch old slippery fish and light-billed fish in black pits, but it is not recommended for beginners.

Features: The floating reed fish not only has the characteristics of light weight, high buoyancy and high sensitivity when eating lead, but also has the characteristics of light weight, high buoyancy and high sensitivity, and the manufacturing process is relatively simple.

Disadvantages: Due to these characteristics, the output signal of this reed float is very chaotic. Even the slight movement of the fish mouth in the water or current may cause the reed to float or turn black, resulting in too many wrong actions.

4. Nanomaterials

Nano-sized fish floats have only appeared in the last two years, but they have developed very rapidly. From the first time I saw them in the market, the starting price of a fish exceeded 100 yuan. So that it can be bought for a few dollars now, and the price fluctuates greatly, which is directly related to its technical development, because the nano-float is made by pure machines, and its production material density is completely consistent, and the production process is very stable. This is incomparable by hand. Nano-material floats represent the development of float manufacturing industry.

Disadvantages: Nano is a synthetic foam, which is more suitable for making jujube-stone-shaped fish floats. The long one is easy to break because of the material. The disadvantage is that the sensitivity is very low, and the ability of fish to stand and rebound is weak, which is not suitable for light fishing.

Advantages: Nano-material floater does not drink water, which has low requirements for paint making and other processes, high concentricity, slightly scarred surface and depth of the floater, and does not affect fishing use.

4. What color is the float clear?

The orange and yellow floats are the clearest in the water. There are many colors of fish floats, and there are many opportunities to choose. Each color has its own characteristics. The usage rate of orange float is the highest among several colors, but it is easy to fade when used frequently.

The colors of floats are very rich, including red and green, red and yellow, orange and yellow. Each color has its own characteristics. If you fish, you can choose your favorite color or choose a more eye-catching color according to the environment around the fishing point.

5. How to adjust the fish drift?

1. Find the bottom before bleaching. The weighted lead pendant throws the main line with double hooks to the fishing point, and then moves the float upward until it is flush with the water surface, which proves that the lead pendant has reached the end. In this way, we can know the state of the water bottom. Such as: water depth, whether the water bottom is flat, whether there are sundries, etc.

2. Move the float down about 20-30 cm, which is longer than the float, then cut off a little lead skin and throw it at the fishing spot. If the float is completely submerged, continue to cut the lead skin. Don't worry, you must cut it bit by bit until the float is above the water. In general, I will adjust it to four eyes first, and the soft tail drift can be two or three eyes. This is an adjustment.

3. Set the fisheye. First move the float upwards about 20 cm, then throw the bait to the fishing point and press the waterline. Don't worry. If the float sinks into the water, it means that the waterline is not long enough, then move the float upward once 10 cm or about 5 cm. Continue to hang the bait and throw the rod until the float comes out of the water again to the original adjustment, and then continue to move the float up and down for a short distance, usually one or half eyes. According to the actual situation, determine the final number of fishing eyes, that is, fishing eyes.
