(3) Light lure: Use cold light similar to yellow fireflies to lure fish. In recent years, fluorescent sticks in blue, green, yellow, red and other colors have been produced abroad and buckled on the fishhook. to increase the fishing rate.

(4) Sound lure: The fish has an inner ear under its skin and a hearing spot in the inner ear, which can accurately identify the direction and location of sounds. Accordingly, "audio fish luring device" has been developed. It records and copies the sound of fish feeding, puts it at the fishing point, and emits sound signals in the water to lure fish to be caught.

It can only sink to the bottom after being sprinkled into the water. The amount should not be too much at one time to avoid attracting small fish floating on the surface.

Third, the bait should have a certain amount of granular material and powder at the same time. The particles should have a certain viscosity and slowly loosen after falling into the water. This can stabilize the fish swimming in the nest; the powder can Lure fish into their nests.

Fourth, fish like fragrance, fishy smell, and stinky smell. Therefore, the bait must have the characteristics of fragrance, fishy smell, etc. to attract fish.

Where conditions permit, the powder may not be fried. The blended powder may be soaked in water for 3 to 5 days, and then fermented before use. The effect will be better. In this way, the fragrance of the bait is not only long-lasting, but also spreads wider.
