How to use a fishing slingshot

One: Tie a few meters of single line with a small bamboo pole and tie a single clip, commonly known as a single card.

The second is 100-meter longline clip fishing, and the fishing method is determined by the fisherman according to the fish caught.

Fishing tackle: the number of clips made of bamboo (thick in the middle and thin at both ends, bent into an arch when stressed, and immediately bounced straight after being released) depends on your own needs, and the right or wrong of the main line depends on the number of clips. A net is used to catch bigger fish. Two bamboo poles are used to fix the main line with clips.

Bait: Look at the fish you catch. Carnivorous fish can use meat bait such as white worms, shrimps and earthworms. Carnivorous fish can use dragonflies, grasshoppers and other bait.

Fishing method: fix the main line at one end of the river bank with a bamboo pole, put the clips on the bait and distribute them on the fishing line at equal intervals, sink the clips into the water, and fix the other end on another bamboo pole on the river bank. There is a hook clip rotating vertically and horizontally in the fish mouth, and the fish's struggle will be reflected through the main line. Fishermen can get cards to collect fish according to the signal from the main line.
