How to fish in winter in Northeast China?

The annual winter has come to our life again. Fishermen break the traditional concept of "winter is the off-season of fishing", bravely walk out of the warm room, carry fishing tackle and rush to the vast fishing world. Fishing in winter, in addition to exercising, strengthening the body and finding pleasure in fishing, it is also the knowledge of many fishermen to have a fishing addiction.

Pay attention to your health when fishing in winter to prevent back and leg pain.

The climate in winter is really cold, and it will also be put on the agenda by anglers to prevent and control diseases. The main threat to fishermen in winter is: "cold wind is cold and wet, that is, wind is cold and wet." This is the pathogenic factor. For us anglers, the most common disease is "lumbago and leg pain".

"Lumbago and leg pain" is a common and frequently-occurring disease. Its main symptoms are: knee pain and low back pain, which will be aggravated when walking, bending over and working with heavy load. And we fishermen, in the whole fishing process, are inseparable from the movement of the waist and knees, so we suffer from "waist and leg pain", which brings us a lot of inconvenience. When the pain occurs, in addition to affecting fishing, the physical and mental pain is even greater. Some fishermen suffer from chronic "low back pain". Often, after being attacked by "wind, cold and humidity" for a long time in the wild, the old disease recurs and aggravates the condition, which not only affects fishing, but also delays the recovery of chronic "low back pain".

The author believes that the following four points can be used as a reference for the prevention and treatment of "low back and leg pain" in winter fishing:

1. Enhance self-protection: If you go out, wear more clothes, hats, warm shoes and socks, cotton gloves, etc. , and do a good job of cold and warmth; Keep enough sleep for more than 8 hours; Pay attention to supplement the necessary nutrition, fresh vegetables and fresh fruits, pay attention to hygiene in diet and keep the food hot.

Second, pay attention to physical exercise: In addition to fishing, you can also do some jogging, equipment exercise, radio exercises, Tai Ji Chuan and other sports.

Third, self-massage and massage.

Before fishing: massage your knees and waist. Methods: Put your left and right palms on your knees, do circular massage and pat gently to generate heat inside and outside your knees to relax. Massage with your palm near the left and right waist areas. Methods: Massage in circles with gestures and rub up and down to make the waist feel warm and relaxed.

Massage and massage in fishing: When you have a rest during fishing, you should also pay attention to self-massage and massage of your waist and knees. The method is as above. Come back from fishing: after going home and taking a bath, pay attention to self-massage and massage your waist and knees, as above.

4. Appropriate use of some drugs: For patients with chronic "low back pain" recurrence, in addition to reducing the number and time of fishing, pay attention to rest, you can also use some family standby drugs for self-care treatment. Methods: 1. After hot compress with warm water (37-50℃), drop white wine on the palm of your hand and massage the affected area to make it feel hot and relax your muscles. 2. Stick common plasters on the affected area, such as musk bone-strengthening ointment, dog skin ointment, cinnamon blood-activating ointment, etc. If the pain can't be relieved after my family health care treatment, I should go to the local hospital for treatment so as not to delay my illness. At the same time, sick fishermen should temporarily stop all outdoor sports and start fishing after recovery.

For anglers with low back pain, after taking self-prevention and self-care measures, patients who still feel sore after a period of time should pay attention to the color and convenience times of urine. Because kidney calculi's disease, nephritis and other diseases can also be accompanied by symptoms of low back pain. Therefore, fishermen with long-term low back pain should reduce fishing in cold winter and go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of our winter fishing and make it healthy and happy, it is more important to prevent "waist and leg pain" in winter fishing. Every friend who takes part in winter fishing should not take it lightly and take precautions before it happens.

The bait line setting of fishing method in winter should be flexible.

The target fish are wild crucian carp in rivers and ponds, mainly small and medium-sized and occasionally a few large crucian carp. The fishing group consists of 0.6 main line and 0.4 ~ 0.2 auxiliary lines, pendants, single hooks and advanced buoys. Leveling water fishing 1-7 orders, using red worms as bait, the rod length is 5.4~7.2 meters, which belongs to long rod short-term multi-nest round fishing.

When the lowest temperature is above 4℃ in June 5438+0 1 and early February 1, the fish eye height has little effect on the fish information, and the buoy fish information is obvious, or floats up and down or shifts, so it is very likely that the buoy will move to lift the fish in the pole. As the temperature continues to drop, especially after several snowfalls and river icing, the water temperature drops to the limit of fish opening (the data shows that it is 4℃), and the news of fish has changed greatly: the probability of seeing any small movements clearly on the buoy will be greatly reduced, but the phenomenon that the pole can catch fish has increased. If we compare 10 times of catching fish (including caught fish and unhooked fish), the number of fish with and without signals is 10:0 or 9: 1 in late autumn and early winter, and it is 3:7 or 2: 8 in the dead of winter. When fishing in winter, a large number of these buoys can catch fish even when they can't see the fish information, that is, they are small mouths and light mouths.

The most direct reason for the small mouth is that the cold weather and low water temperature make the fish stiff and inactive, and the bait mouth is small and the bait is shallow. The indirect reason is that the conductive resistance of fishing line, hook bait, lead pendant and buoy is too large, which weakens the power generated by the already weak fish swallowing bait.

How to deal with it to reduce unnecessary waiting time, improve efficiency and reduce fish running? I have been taking three measures some time ago, even on the freezing day of 65438+1March 9, 14- 16, and I got 30-40 fish every time.

One is to use red worm bait. Compared with earthworms, the interest of winter crucian carp in red worm hook has greatly increased, and the fishing effect has doubled, so it is indeed the first choice for winter fishing bait. However, the hooks must be carefully selected, and the requirements are that the hooks are thin (red worms are very easy to puncture body fluids), the hooks are sharp and sharp, and the handles are long (easy to pinch the hooks). After a variety of model tests, the final choice is "tea" 6, which is very suitable for fishing 25-250g winter crucian carp. The surface color of this hook is red, which is consistent with the red worm. The hook and bait are integrated, and the fish are more likely to be deceived. The puncture method of red worms is that the hook tip directly pierces the head or upper body of red worms, and 2 ~ 3 live red worms are hung on the hook at a time, so that the hook tip is exposed. The red worm is thin and short, and it can suck the winter crucian carp into the mouth with a little mouth opening, which is very beneficial to improve the bait rate.

Second, the fishing group is fine. The buoy uses reed markers with long feet, short body, slender and hard tail to amplify the bait signal of fish as much as possible. Line groups, especially sub-lines, have the most obvious influence on fish information. When the temperature is close to 0℃, the sub-line of 0.2 can increase the fish information by about 20% ~ 30% compared with the sub-lines of 0 and 4, which improves the accuracy of fish extraction in the pole. As for shortening the length of the sub-line to improve the sensitivity, I have never tried it, and I have always used the long sub-line of about 15 cm. I think the length of the parting line has limited influence on the sensitivity of the hook, but it has great influence on the fish attraction. In winter, dynamic live bait must be used to lure fish, and the eldest son line has more advantages in this respect. The latter is more important than attracting fish! But if you use a string, once you encounter a big crucian carp, you are in danger of breaking the line and running away. This requires that the fishing rod should not be too hard, the action of lifting fish should be continuous and slow, and the whole process of lifting fish should not touch other debris on the water surface or in the air. Because long poles (5.4-7.2 meters) and short poles (3 meters) are used, it is not suitable for copying nets. The sub-line must be changed frequently, so as not to regret losing the big crucian carp.

The third is the improvement of standard observation and pole lifting technology. In winter fishing, it is much better to use multi-point nest wheel fishing method than single nest fishing. But in the wild river, different fishing spots are frequent, and the buoy catches one more eye, which brings problems to the adjustment of the eye (fishing eye). Every time you catch a den, in order to ensure the best sensitivity of the fishing group, it is not convenient to pull down the bid again. Therefore, I didn't do it. Instead, I divide all fishing spots into two types, at most three kinds of water depths, and adjust the buoy fishing order between 1-7, so it is enough to adjust the standard once per round of fishing, at most twice. However, we must be aware of the influence of the number of buoys in each cave on the sensitivity. For example, the number of fish floating down is less than the number of buoys floating up. We shouldn't wait for the fish to appear for a long time, but we should apply the following method of taking the initiative to lift the rod and stab the fish.

The influence of fisheye and the combination of various factors lead to small mouth without mouth, which can be finally solved by active pole lifting technology. The method of lifting the pole is to use wrist force when the pole is short (less than 5.4m), and the forearm cooperates with wrist force when the pole is long (more than 6.3m) to lift the hook bait from the bottom of the water by 0.5- 1m in a very short time. At the same time of exerting force, the hand and brain can sense whether the fish has a hook. If there is no fish, stop lifting the pole and then loosen the line. If there is fish, continue to lift the pole (the big arm needs to cooperate at this time) and lift the fish out of the water. The whole movement should be gentle, especially when the fish has a hook, and there should be no pause in the process of lifting the pole halfway to prevent the fish from unhooking. This method is similar to competitive fishing of crucian carp. The difference is that if there is no fish after lifting the pole, there is no need to change the bait and re-hook. The red worm is not afraid to expose the hook tip as bait, so if there is no news, raise more poles. Frequent pole lifting can not only improve the efficiency per unit time (more fish), but also increase the number of bait. But this method of lifting the pole is a test for the arm, especially the long pole over 7.2 meters is more tired, so the pole must be light and elastic.

As for the timing of lifting the pole, it is up to the fisherman to grasp it himself. There are several principles to determine the lifting interval: 1. The situation of fish is good or bad at a certain time. When the fish is in the peak season, the interval time should be as short as possible, and even 10 second can be lifted without signaling; 2. In the form of beacon message, a fish has been caught at a fishing point. If there is a small signal, the interval can be extended and wait for the next fish message to appear again. The previous fishing was blind fishing, so the interval may be shorter; 3. How many fishing orders are there? The fishing list is the best in the middle position (I am 3 ~ 4, the secondary line is slightly loose, and the bait entrance is unobstructed, which reflects the message of the fish to the greatest extent). The interval is a little longer, and the fishing list is at a high level, but it is not appropriate to wait for news of the fish, because even if the bait is swallowed, the fish will not swim much in winter, and there will be fewer body movement signals.

In winter, it is necessary to look at the location, understand the nature of fish and measure the water temperature in the reservoir fishing pond.

In winter, because fish don't take the initiative to eat, especially some fish, the water level drops in winter, so they shut up and start hibernating. Except crucian carp, which has strong cold tolerance, other fish are hard to catch. However, the temperature in most parts of the south of the Yangtze River is higher than that in the Central Plains, Northeast China and Northwest China. When there are continuous sunny days in these areas, some aquaculture ponds will heat up rapidly, and all kinds of fish in the ponds will open their mouths to eat. Therefore, in winter in the south of the Yangtze River, people are puzzled by fishing. The reason is that the geographical location, water temperature and food habits of fish ponds in reservoirs are different. This is where I am. A fish pond in the south of the county refused to talk, while a reservoir in the north of the county was easy to fish. Why is this? Let's talk about my opinion.

First, the influence of geographical location.

Geographical location determines the water temperature, if the reservoir is on the mountain. In winter, there is no water in the reservoir and the water level is deep, so you can only fish crucian carp here. If there is no crucian carp in the reservoir, then you can't catch any fish. If the water level in the reservoir is not deep and there is no fish caught in it, you can fish crucian carp here at noon as long as the weather is fine and the temperature rises. If there is no crucian carp, only grass carp, carp and silver carp, then grass carp will take the bait. Why? The reason for the water temperature is that if the water is only two meters deep, the water temperature will rise rapidly at noon and the fish will become active.

Generally speaking, unless the water is released for fishing, the water level of the reservoir will not drop. The water depth of the reservoir is deep, and sunlight can't make the water temperature rise rapidly. Only the temperature of the water surface will rise and the fish will lie still at the bottom of the water. So it is best to find a shallow fish pond for fishing in winter. If there are many big crucian carp in the small pool, you can go fishing, because crucian carp can withstand low temperature and eat. The geographical location of fish ponds is also very important. If the density of crucian carp in the fish pond is high, then it is easy to catch crucian carp. If the density is low, then you have to think about it. Where will these fish be? Generally speaking, you should look for leeward places, sunny places, and places with some branches or rocks are better. In places with low fish density, it is even more necessary to carefully observe the geographical location of fish ponds and find suitable places to take the bait. As long as there are fish in the water, the harvest can still be guaranteed.

Second, the requirements of fish feeding habits

In the author's area, there are great differences in fish feeding habits among ponds and reservoirs. In some reservoirs, fish don't eat much when they are fished with earthworms, and in some reservoirs, fish eat very hard. Why is this? I went to observe that the reservoir that doesn't eat earthworms very much is close to the county seat, and many people go fishing there every day. Whether you can fish or not, everyone knows to use earthworms. It is also convenient to buy earthworms, which are sold in fishing gear shops. There are many fish in the reservoir, especially crucian carp. There are many people fishing, and most of the fish are caught. Some fish that were not caught were also hooked by earthworms. They are very alert to these earthworms, and they are no longer careless when they see them. Some fish scare away when they see earthworms. This frightened other fish, so the fish in the reservoir became more and more difficult to catch. Another reason is that the water there is fat and slightly yellow. As soon as every fisherman arrives at the water's edge, he goes to ask the fisherman for fish food. No matter whether you can catch fish or not, let's have a "food and grass first". It is said that it is to lure fish, but it is actually to fertilize the water body. In this way, the water quality of the reservoir is affected, the fish are inactive and they don't eat much. When fishing in such a water body, we should pay attention to the change of bait. In fishing, I found that the bait should be alive. For example, with earthworms, you can't sink to the bottom, and fish are hard to find. You can't hang in the middle, there are no crucian carp there. Crucian carp are not very active in foraging in winter. Generally, they swim slowly. If there is a wriggling earthworm in the water layer 5 ~ 10 cm from the bottom, it will eat it in one bite, because it can get beauty without much effort.

Similarly, you can't use homemade bait with vegetarian bait. You should buy commercial crucian carp bait, fishy or strong, add a little fish feed and wire drawing powder, so that you can catch 5 ~ 10 cm from the bottom, which will generally have obvious effects.

If you are in a reservoir in a mountainous area far away from the city, the fish pond has excellent water quality and high fish density. As long as you can fish with earthworms, then you don't need to be so particular. Especially in reservoirs where few people fish, or no one fishes, you can use a sea pole hook to fish, and the effect will be great.

If the water quality is particularly good, the density of fish is not high, and people often fish in reservoirs and small fish ponds, such places need fishing skills. When fishing, fishermen are required to pay attention to fishing from the bottom, and the requirements for the use of bait are changeable.

Thirdly, the influence of water temperature on fishing.

Winter fishing in the south of the Yangtze River is different from that in the south, the Central Plains and the north. The fundamental difference is the temperature. Compared with the farther south, the local area can also be called the north, because it can see snow once or twice a year. When fishing, there will be a one-month or half-month dormancy period due to the weather. The dormancy period refers to the period from February 9 to April 9. It's cold for about ten days, so it's not suitable for fishing. Then you can go fishing at other times, as long as it doesn't rain and it doesn't blow hard.

If you want to fish here in winter, you should also pay attention to the weather changes. I have summarized the following points for the reference of fishermen with similar climate.

Look for deep water, pot bottoms and pits below 1. 10 degrees. If there are fallen trees, withered branches are the best.

The highest temperature in a day does not exceed 10 degrees, so crucian carp basically move in the deepest part, in a small range, or not at all. At this time, it is necessary to look for reservoirs, ponds, or deep pits. If you are not familiar with the fishing ground, you can observe the crucian carp and fish stars on the water. If you really can't see it, ask the owner of the pond or a nearby farmer. If you come to the water and find fallen trees or branches, you can do nest fishing under the trees, which is very effective.

The pole is 7- 10 meter long, or the string hook is made of Haiyan pole. The hand pole can be double-hooked, one hook sinks to the bottom and the other hook is 3 ~ 7 cm away from the bottom. Use live bait, such as earthworms and red worms. If it is difficult to catch fish and there are fish in the water, you can hang a thumb commercial bait on the sunken hook and an earthworm on the other hook. It takes five minutes or less to change bait, and there will be a good result, although the trouble is a last resort.

2. When fishing in idolize above 10 degrees, it is best to sit in the lee of the sun.

During the day, when the temperature is above 10 degrees, the fish will heat up and leave. Fishermen should not worry about its whereabouts. As long as it moves and feeds, there will be fish stars, and fishermen will find fish stars to fish. Where there are many fish stars, it means there are fish. The stars of crucian carp are easy to identify in winter, because other fish are basically motionless and no stars will come out. Only crucian carp, its stars are generally three or four independent bubbles of the same size. If you can use poles, you'd better not use hooks. If the hand pole can't reach it, use a string hook to fish, use a small sea pole, the best is 2. 1 meter, and the pole tip should be soft, even better if there is a rock pole. When throwing the pole, when the line comes out, the string hook will reach the waters with fish. Pull the line suddenly by hand, so that the hook will fall into the water with a light sound, which can be done by any veteran who hits the sea pole. Earthworms used for hand fishing must be neither coarse nor fine, and they are very fresh. If the earthworm is too thin, it is difficult to take the bait. If it is too thick, the fish will be less palatable and eat slowly. Only earthworms that are neither coarse nor fine are more active, and fish is delicious. Fishing crucian carp in winter, the drift is slight, as long as there is a next meal and a roof, it is necessary to lift the pole immediately. Be careful when catching fish. Don't lift the fish out of the water in a hurry. Pull it aside slowly until it is close to the shore. Fish enter the nest slowly in winter, so we should fish well since we are here. I met some novices. After catching one fish, the other fish were scared away because the noise of copying fish on the water was too loud. After the fisherman got off the pole again, he couldn't catch any fish.

Fishing and nesting skills in winter

Making a nest is the first thing for every fisherman to do in the fishing ground, all year round, day after day. Most anglers believe that building a nest is not as simple as sending spoiled food or granular feed prepared in advance to the nest with a hole breaker. But for fishing experts, they know that they should pay attention to the proportion of nesting materials and what aspects to pay attention to when actually operating nesting. When winter comes, I will talk about how to make a nest in winter fishing according to my recent winter fishing experience, and give fishermen a try in winter fishing.

First, according to climate change, the climate becomes quite cold when winter comes, and the water temperature of reservoirs, ponds and lakes drops sharply. In this climate, we should pay attention to the choice of digging holes, pay attention to playing, and must adhere to the principle of less fighting and diligent compensation, and widely plant and reap less. The specific method is to make more nests at different depths. If you choose to try fishing in deeper waters in the morning and evening, the fish will swim to the deep water to keep warm because of the cold weather and water cooling in the morning and evening. From noon 1 1: 00 to 3: 00 pm, try fishing in shallow water, because when the sun comes out at noon, the water temperature in shallow water is higher than that in deep water, and fish will come here to keep warm and feed. No matter in shallow water or deep water, it is best to make nests on the left and right sides of our fishing position, because the activity and range of fish are relatively small in winter, so we should change from passive to active and find fish to fish, instead of just making nests and waiting for fish to come.

Second, choose nest materials according to climate change. The water temperature is high in summer and autumn, and the fish have strong activity and foraging desire. As long as you make a nest, fish stars will appear in about half an hour, which is what we usually call nesting. This is not the case in winter. It takes two or three hours to make a nest. If you don't choose the right fishing position, sometimes you don't nest for a day. In addition to the relationship between water temperature, there is also the wrong nest material and improper choice of fishing position. Sweet food is the main food in summer and autumn, and the granular feed eaten by fish all the year round will also receive good results. Not in winter. My experience is that we must add fishy commercial bait or fresh insect bait and millet soaked in medicinal liquor to the bad food used to make holes in winter, so as to have better fish-attracting effect when the water temperature is cold in winter. If only pellet feed is used to make nests, the smell of nest materials in water will be slow because the water temperature is too low, which will lead to the situation that fish can not be attracted or the speed of attracting fish is very slow. Because insects can move in water, millet soaked in wine has a strong taste. If you use insect bait or millet soaked in wine as a nest, you will soon attract fish and lay a good foundation for today's fishing.

Third, fight less and make up more, and break up. You can't hit too much and too thick at a time in winter, as long as the nest smells of bait. Even in summer and autumn, you should avoid playing too much. If our nest is too thick at a time, after the fish come, we can't finish eating everything in the nest. When shall we eat the bait on your hook? In order to lure fish in a large area, we can take the method of fishing more nests. We only catch a small amount of bait in each nest, and then take turns to try fishing. You must fish for the nest first, and make up the nest before you leave it, that is, you must make the nest full of flavor and food. You can't let the fish eat it once and run away. According to the general rule, most fishermen think that the more concentrated the nest, the better, but the fishing method in winter is different, especially the insect bait, such as red worms and blood worms. If we play very concentrated, it's almost a ball. If a big fish comes and eats it up, there will be nothing in the nest and there will be no fish here. If we are scattered and insects move in a certain range of water, the surrounding fish will come here one after another when they smell the insects or see them moving. Even if only one big fish eats the ball, there are many balls beside it that continue to play the role of attracting fish. What I'm talking about here is not infinite deviation. For example, in summer and autumn, we should make a nest the size of a bowl, while in winter, we should make a nest the size of a washbasin. If it is too big, it will lure the fish to other places. Another point is that the nest material for winter fishing should be smaller and stronger bait, such as millet soaked in wine, shredded corn and small pellet feed. The advantage of this is that it will not be eaten up by newly lured fish soon, and it will emit a stronger smell in cold water for a longer time.

Five changes in fishing crucian carp in winter

In fishing, there used to be a proverb called "Chrysanthemum (flower), osmanthus fragrans (flower) incense catches carp, and crucian carp is the main fish in winter". But through practice, the author thinks that if you want to catch more crucian carp in early winter, you should pay attention to the following "five changes"

According to the trend of ten-day change

The "ten days" mentioned here are determined according to the 24 solar terms in a year, six in each quarter and two in each month, and the first, middle and last three days of each month.

In the meantime, especially in winter and summer, the temperature change of each solar term is more sudden and abnormal than in spring and autumn, so there is a saying that "there are many thunderstorms in summer and sudden cold in winter during the three changes".

Climate determines temperature, temperature changes water temperature, and water temperature divides water layer. There are also differences between vast rivers, lakes and seas and narrow ponds and streams. These natural laws will have an impact on the living environment of fish. Therefore, when fishing for crucian carp in the early winter after winter, although the temperature difference at the beginning, middle and late of this month is only ten days, there is a choice between fishing for rivers and reservoirs or fishing for ponds and streams.

1, a big river and a big reservoir, its river basin and still water surface are not only vast, but also generally belong to shallow hills and plains. Therefore, whether it is the photosynthesis of water layer radiated by sunlight and ultraviolet rays in summer or the disturbance of cold air circulation in winter, its rising and cooling speed is much slower than that of small ponds, dams and streams in valleys and mountainous areas, which leads to the temperature difference between the two places.

2. It is precisely because of the existence and generation of this temperature difference that before the light snow in beginning of winter 10 days, its rivers just finished the late autumn. Even though the water temperature in small ponds and weirs has gradually decreased and the fish gradually entered a semi-hibernating state, the water temperature in large waters is generally kept at about 65438 05℃ due to sunlight, which is relatively suitable for fish to survive. So this period is the best time to go fishing in rivers.

3. Once the light snow has passed, in the middle and late period before the heavy snow, although it has not yet entered the middle of winter, as long as the sun is less or not at all, the water temperature of the vast rivers will drop faster than that of small ponds and weirs in mountainous areas, making it unsuitable for fish to survive. Because this pure natural water area is not as dense as fish heads in some semi-cultured fish ponds in mountainous areas, it is natural to change the destination and give up the fish ponds in the river half a month ago.

Change the fishing position according to the water area

1, major rivers, large rivers and large reservoirs:

(1) The river is wide, the fishing is narrow, and the fishing rod is good. Rivers and reservoirs, if the water surface is particularly wide and vast, do not like swimming and foraging in the far water centers of these areas at any time, even in spring and autumn. Therefore, after winter, they will live and hide in the narrow dark grass and rock pits on the water surface. Convex land, the biggest advantage is that it extends to the center of the river, hidden and quiet. Therefore, it is not only the only way for fish to swim up and down when they are most active in spring, summer and autumn, but also a safe port for camping and camping here after winter.

(2) When the river bends, don't look too far and you can't find dark grass. All bends along the river and flowing river are generally slow or swirling water, so it is easiest for fish flowing downstream to stop and rest and swim happily here. Even if they are not as active as in summer and autumn after winter, they will often look for phytoplankton and aquatic insects in the grass that has not completely withered in the "nest" to fill their stomachs and store food for the formal winter, so it is easy to bite at this time. The nearshore water depth is more than 3 meters. Although there is generally no contiguous grass, there must be a layer of dark grass in front of or around the slightly farther water plants. Just in winter, crucian carp is most likely to live and hide in such a place that is not too close, not too far, not too deep and not too shallow.

(3) The beach is suitable for fishing back water, and there is a good nest next to the rock. The foot of the beach was flooded. In addition to a lot of plankton flowing down from the upstream trapped here, it is also easy to attract fish to gather for food. After winter, the water depth here is 4 ~ 5 meters, which is not only suitable for fish to inhabit and hide, but also because of the splashing and cleaning effect of the upstream dripper, the dissolved oxygen capacity of the beach foot is generally more than that of other still waters, so it is easy to rest and hide fish. If there are looming rocks underwater, next to these fixed obstacles, it is the "living nest" of fish after winter. Therefore, it would be better to build a nest here.

2. Site selection of small ponds, weirs and streams:

(1) Squat down on the corner of the square pond and catch the middle part of the pond with a long weir. The four corners of the pond are chosen because fish usually stay for a while when they swim along the coast to the corner that changes direction. In early winter, although the range of fish activities began to shrink, after all, they have not completely entered hibernation and dived into deep water, so they still come here from time to time to feed. The long weirs on both sides of the water surface have no convex and concave straight edges. In addition to the deep water at the weir head in winter and midsummer and the shallow water at the weir tail in spring and autumn, fish mostly perch on the wall at the middle waist for food in early winter.

(2) Don't fish at the edge of the sloping bottom weir pond, and stay at the feed inlet or the bridge deck. Many small fish ponds in rural areas are mostly "pot-bottom-shaped" with shallow sides and deep middle due to the erosion and deposition of sediment by heavy rains in summer and autumn year after year. Facing the pond where this fish is usually too shallow to be close to the edge, it is even more necessary to choose these distant places, such as piers or bridge slabs, after winter, to facilitate water lifting. If there is no such advantage, it is necessary to nest at the feeding mouth where master Tang often feeds feed.

(3) The weir on the stream squats at two corners, and the fish on the sunny side of the canyon is deep. At the two corners of the weir on the stream, fish are used to wandering on both sides before swimming in the water. After winter, fish often "nest" in the deep water near the corner instead of in the distance. If there is a gloomy valley in the lower reaches of Xiaoxi River, there must be a deep-water tuo with an open and sunny surface. Here, it is the early winter when the fish are lazy and slow to swim, and it is the best gathering place for the next step. Therefore, it is often regarded as the first choice for stream fishing in winter.

Change fishing methods according to habits.

Except for the occasional abnormal weather in midsummer and midwinter, which makes the water temperature suddenly rise above 35℃ or drop below 5℃ of the lowest critical water temperature for feeding, crucian carp can generally be caught all year round. However, after winter, after all, I eat less and move less. Therefore, when fishing, in addition to fishing at the bottom of the pole, we can also adopt the methods of dragging fishing and fishing with food according to the change of solar terms and the situation of "food".

1, trawl. Generally only suitable for the first half of light snow. Because at this time, crucian carp neither entered hibernation, stopped to swim less, moved less, ate less, and did not dive into deep water to lie still, but hid and rested more. When they are in such a lazy and greedy state that they want to swim far, but actually swim slowly, and they want to be greedy without grabbing their mouths, if they adopt the "dragging fishing method" of lifting the pole with a line, lifting the bait with a line and gradually retreating, they can change "fishing to death" into "attracting live fish".

2, including food and fishing. This fishing method should be before the heavy snow. At this time, due to the decrease of water temperature, the fish slowly swam to the deep water, and the fluctuation of drifting bait and dragging fishing was not suitable for its swimming direction and activity range. However, if the earthworm is hooked and covered with spaghetti, it will fall off layer by layer in a certain period of time, which not only plays the role of replacing fishing with food, but also has the choice advantage of "meat" and "vegetarian" in the gradual process, which can attract them to continue eating and biting in a suitable living environment.

Change bait according to eating habits

Although crucian carp is an omnivorous fish that eats both meat and vegetables, it still has a hobby of being vegetarian in spring and summer and eating meat in autumn and winter. During this period, especially in late spring, midsummer and late autumn and early winter.

Because crucian carp also has a seasonal, even solar, meat-loving and meat-hating change process, so when fishing after winter, earthworm, red worm, dragonfly, meat maggot and other meat bait are mainly used in the first half of light snow. If necessary, in addition to counterpart commercial bait, you can also use traditional vegetarian bait such as rice, beans (called broad beans in some places) powder and corn flour. But after the light snow, when the fish move less and eat less, it is only suitable for using meat bait. In particular, insect bait such as earthworms can attract fish to bite the hook by constantly stretching and crawling on the hook, which will get twice the result with half the effort. At this time, the vegetarian bait, no matter what kind, brand and fragrance, especially in natural waters, generally will not have good results.

Change fishing tackle according to position.

In early winter wild fishing, the fisherman's specific fishing position is different, and the fishing tackle should be replaced accordingly. In the meantime, except for the fishing distance related to the length of the fishing line, it is not suitable to use the double hook fishing group of "one up and one down, one meat and one dish" as usual, whether it is fishing grass gap or fishing water after winter.

Because, first of all, if you choose to nest next to open grass or dark grass, this kind of double-hook fishing group is more prone to grass hanging obstacles than the traditional one-line one-hook fishing group; Second, even if this kind of accident can be avoided by fishing in bright waters, after winter, crucian carp completely inhabit the bottom, so the hanging fishing group up and down completely loses its practical significance at this time. As for trying to get more meat, it will be because crucian carp almost don't like vegetarian bait before the light snow, and they love meat, so they can't kill two birds with one stone at all. Moreover, the double hook line group is not as neat as the single hook line group.
