2. The chub swims a lot, aiming at feeding on plankton and absorbing oxygen, because the weather changes abnormally in the period from the beginning of summer to the end of fall, which often causes the lack of oxygen in the water.
3. Fear of disturbance, like to jump. Encountered a loud noise or bird skimming the surface of the water, immediately causing the fish to jump out of the water, one after another, see people dazzled. This reaction is mainly in the chub.
Second, understand its food and fishing bait
Chub not only like sour, but also eat sweet food, sometimes with meat bait can also be caught. Of course, it depends on the water quality and feeding situation of the fishing pond. Generally to a small area of artificially fed ponds, under the condition of sufficient bait, sweet and fragrant bait and red earthworms are effective; to a large area of natural waters with small density of chubs and a lot of plankton, it is still the lure of sour and stinky bait.
The following are a few baits that I have used and are very effective in catching chub:
1. Canola cake, tailing meal, flour, fermentation
2. Canola cake, corn meal, flour, fermentation
3, flour
6. flour, white vinegar, sugar
7. bran, stinky tofu juice, flour
8. red earthworms dipped in flour
The above bait mixing, in addition to red earthworms, the other kinds of bait, if it is a fishing bait on the addition of a little bit of flour, to the water for 2 ~ 3 minutes does not fall apart as a good, if the bait, can be pinched together into a rope on the line, do not have to be mixed into the flour too much. It is not necessary to mix in too much flour. The mixing of rapeseed cake should not be more than one-fifth at most. The other ingredients can be flexibly combined according to the situation.
Third, to understand the characteristics of its feeding
1. Chainfish feeding is in the upper and lower mouth when the mouth opening, closing the food into the mouth, but is not in a hurry to swallow, and not like carp, grass, green and other fish turn their heads and swim away, but stay put, sucking and spitting, slowly swallowed. In addition, the feeding action of chub and silver carp are different, silver carp is agile and slight, so people can't guard against it, and fishing for this fish must be fast and quick. The chub's feeding action is slower and more steady than that of the white chub.
2. Most of them feed in the middle and upper layers of the water, especially in artificially fed fishing ponds, where the bait floats in the middle and upper layers, so that the fish form the habit of feeding in that layer of water. Then again, it is downwind to feed on plankton in the surface layer of the water, which makes fishing for chub difficult.
3. There are also those who go to the bottom of the water to feed. Especially when fishing, due to the bait's strong aroma to attract groups of chub, they are not as cunning as carp and carp, suspicious, as long as the taste of the mouth to eat, which in turn creates favorable conditions for fishing chub.
Fourth, learn to watch the drift
This is very important. The key to accurate timing lies in the moment when the float reacts. So what are the reactions?
1. A quick, slight shake or two, or sink a little, and then immediately rise to the original position, this is undoubtedly the reaction of the chub ingesting bait.
2. Slowly rising or sinking, not more than one eye, is the chub taking the bait.
3. When the hook bait is sinking in place, the float suddenly rises or sinks 1~2 times and continues to remain motionless, which is surely a chub baiting, and the hook rate of this reaction is quite high.
4. The float in the water seems to move non-movement, most of the time is the chub ingesting bait. This kind of reaction usually occurs when there is a little bit of wind and waves.
5. In my more than ten years of chub fishing experience, I have never encountered chub dragging, black drifting and big send drift.
Fifth, how to judge the chub into the nest and bite
1. Observe the blisters, from the nest around the two-cent coin-sized single blisters, meters away from the far around a, from far and near into the nest.
2. Watch the bait, in order to accurately determine whether the chub bite, in addition to watching the drift and blisters, there is another effective method, is to use red earthworms test fishing, other fish bite, earthworms is a section of the section was bitten off, while the chub bites through the earthworms are all crushed.
So, as long as you analyze the combination of watching the drift, watching the blisters, and checking the hooks and baits, you can accurately determine whether it's the chub that's biting.
Sixth, fishing
In recent years, I have been in the conditions allow, using a single hook, tandem hooks, group hooks and anchor hooks and other four kinds of fishing method to test.
1. The fishing tackle for single-hook chub fishing is the same as for carp and carp fishing. I use Nissan Marukyu 13~15 hooks and use red earthworms or noodles for bait. This method is simple and easy to learn, but because of the big mouth of the silver carp, coupled with a mouth full of mucous membrane, it is difficult to hook in the vital parts, so a large proportion of fish off the hook.
2. The tandem hook fishing method is to let the chub bite in the upper, middle and lower water levels, but the interference of small fish is too big, the effect is not ideal, and it costs a lot of bait and time.
3. Group hook fishing, that is, explosive hooks. This method does not use a lead weight, do not want to bait spring, only with a good bait will be wrapped hooks, with a hand rod will be hooks and bait lightly to the bottom of the water, floating upright, exposed to the surface of the water on the 1 ~ 2 eyes. This method is not a large number of fish, but the hook and line is very easy to wrap the knot.
Seventh, floating fishing and bottom fishing, which effect is good
From the chub's habits, the effect of floating fishing should be good, some anglers have already tried, "China Fishing" magazine has also introduced, have a certain gain. However, from my years of chub fishing practice, float fishing is not as good as bottom fishing. Although the former is attractive, but lack of stability, because the hook bait county in the water, the water soaked and diluted, the fish hit and scattered, and finally only empty hooks, the fish will not be fooled. Bottom fishing is the opposite, change the disadvantage of floating fishing into an advantage, the bait is constantly supplemented to the fixed nest, enhance the effect of fish attraction, coupled with the taste is appropriate, chub will fight to swallow the hook and bait, at this time, is the time to lift the rod to fish. As for how deep the bottom fishing, can not be a stick and the theory, so far, I from about 1 meter fishing to 3.5 meters deep, the effect is very good.
Eighth, how to fish high
The exploration found that the effect of fishing chub every year from June to September are good, but in the four months in July and August for the ideal month, and fishing chub peak, but the middle of July to mid-August, the dusk of every day of the month for the golden moment. Because of this period of time, the temperature is variable, the southwest wind is more, the weather is dry, hot, fish by the influence of climate appetite. Only to the yellow wrong temperature drop, the wind is also small, this time the chub big appetite, it is hungry to eat. In addition, high winds and waves during the day make it difficult to watch the drift is also one of the reasons why it is not suitable for chub fishing. So the dusk of this period is a rare opportunity for the best fishing.
Ninth, can you catch chub in winter
Previously, I thought that you can't catch chub in winter. However, according to the recent years, I have overturned my original idea, winter can also catch chub. It's just that the catch is small. In the winter of 1992-1995, I have been insisting on trying to fish, have a certain amount of catch. Especially at the end of December 1994, a cloudy day, blowing 2~3 north wind, in the temperature of only 11 ℃, fishing a 9 kg big chub. Anglers have also caught winter chub following the methods I have described.
Tenth, the "old ghost" fishing effect is good
I am a great admirer of the "old ghost" essence, but at first it was only used for fishing carp, carp and so on, and not used for chub fishing, and then in order to test the "old ghost" power, it was used in the "old ghost" fishing. "The first one is the one that is used to make the bait, and the second one is the one that is not used to make the bait.
1. Mixed into the flour, for dipping powder;
2. Mixed with flour, sugar and kneaded, hooked for fishing bait, this bait was light yellow, slightly sweet and "old ghost" special flavor.
Because of the intervention of the "old ghost" to enhance the attractiveness of the bait, coupled with the continuous dipping powder, so the duration of a long time, on the fish is also more, for this around the fishing buddies said I am worthy of fishing veterans. The fact is that it's not my fishing skills that make me so good at it, it's the "old ghost" that makes me so good at it!
Lastly, don't be too happy when you get hooked up with a chub, because this fish has a big mouth, a thin lip, a little meat, and a lot of membrane, so it's hard to hook up. In order to make the catch of the chub smooth landing, but also have to pay attention to three passes: that is, one can not be hard to pull, in order to prevent the mouth; two can not be loose line, in order to prevent the hook; three can not be hasty, in order to prevent the hasty. Therefore, it can only be guided by the situation, careful walking fish, until the white belly, and then use the net or hand cupped on the shore, do not lift the line, or else all the previous work is lost.
