What bait is used to catch crucian carp in winter?

This season in winter is really a good season to catch crucian carp. Old fishermen who can fish like to catch crucian carp in winter, because the crucian carp caught is not only big, but also no less than other seasons. But fishing for crucian carp in winter also has disadvantages, so what are the disadvantages of fishing for crucian carp in winter? The disadvantage is that the water is cold in winter, and crucian carp don't like activities, so crucian carp like to flock and hide in a safer position.

In this season of winter, careful fishermen will find that traditional fishing is much more than fishing in Taiwan Province. Why? The first reason is that Taiwan Province fishing needs to "lure" crucian carp to dens, while traditional fishing relies on "people looking for fish" to find the hiding place of crucian carp, thus catching crucian carp.

So what's the difference between these two points? The biggest difference is that Carassius auratus doesn't like activities in winter. It is difficult to lure Carassius auratus to its nest by fishing in Taiwan Province, while traditional fishing is equivalent to sending food to Carassius auratus, so that it can eat food without swimming.

Crucian carp don't like activities in winter, but that doesn't mean they don't like activities. In addition to being driven by external forces (such as human factors), they also need to take the initiative when foraging. In winter, crucian carp need energy to survive, and the best energy source is undoubtedly food.

But in winter, the weather is cold and the water temperature is low, so not all foods are suitable for crucian carp. Carassius auratus often likes to eat some foods with high protein content, so this kind of high-content food is undoubtedly the best bait for catching crucian carp.

What food is high in protein? In this season of winter, even if fishermen insist on fishing in Taiwan Province, a large part of the bait used is earthworms or red worms. Why? Don't fishermen in Taiwan Province like to fish with commercial bait? Why do fishermen in Taiwan Province use earthworms or red worms in this winter season? This is because both kinds of bait contain a lot of animal protein, which is the most needed food for crucian carp in winter.

Of course, there are also some Taiwan Province fishermen. Even if they don't want to use earthworms or red worms, they will use bait with very strong smell. This is because the bait also contains a lot of animal protein. But even if the fishy bait contains a lot of animal protein, why is it not as good as earthworm and red worm? This is because the "fresh taste" of the bait on the market is not up to standard, and it is not as fresh as red worms and earthworms.

In this season of winter, the freshness of bait is very important. If you don't know what "fresh" is, you can understand it as live bait.

Live bait, or "just dead" bait, is very fresh bait, and in this kind of bait, the animal protein content is very high.

For example, in winter, many fishermen use fresh shrimp as bait, and crush or chop these shrimps into shrimp pulls or shrimp slides, and the effect is also very obvious. Not only can wild fishing be carried out in natural waters, but it is also used very frequently in black pits.

So what bait is the best for catching crucian carp in winter? In winter, I say three baits, which are very good baits for catching crucian carp in winter. If you use these three kinds of bait, if you can't catch crucian carp in winter, then I can doubt whether there are any crucian carp in the waters you are fishing at present.

1, red worm

Red worms are definitely the first choice bait for catching crucian carp in winter. It is not only the most commonly used bait for traditional fishermen in winter, but also the most frequently used bait for Taiwan Province fishermen in black pits or natural waters.

2. Fresh shrimp

This kind of shrimp bait is second only to red worms, but the traditional fishing method is inconvenient to use. On the contrary, it is commonly used by many fishermen in Taiwan Province in winter. Because some black pits prohibit red worms, many fishermen in Taiwan Province use fresh shrimp instead of red worms, not to mention the effect is second only to red worms.

3. Earthworms

Earthworms are used frequently not only in winter, but also in other seasons, because earthworms are easier to preserve than red worms, because red worms are easy to die. Earthworms are not only cheap, but also effective in catching crucian carp in winter. In winter, there are also many fishing friends in Taiwan Province who make earthworms and pull crucian carp with earthworms, and the effect is also excessive.

Finally, no matter what the bait is, the most important thing for us to catch crucian carp in winter is to find a place to hide the fish. As mentioned above, crucian carp don't like swimming in winter, so it is unrealistic to lure fish by nesting. Many people may not be able to lure crucian carp into the nest by making overnight nests, let alone start fishing immediately after nesting. Therefore, fishing for crucian carp in winter is the key factor, and bait is only the second.
