1. Discussion of reasons
There are two main reasons why fishermen hate small tilapia. One is that small tilapia is very greedy and will eat whatever they can. Admittedly, it is very difficult to catch big fish in places where there are many small tilapias. Secondly, small tilapias are very annoying when they make nests. Where there are many small tilapias, no matter which water layer you fish in or what bait you use, you can’t avoid the small ones. Tilapia nest.
2. Fishing near the nest
Large tilapias live longer and are often much more vigilant than small tilapias. They generally do not enter the nest easily and often Pick up nest materials near the nest. When fishing, you can use powdered commercial bait and large-grain grain nest materials to make a nest, and then use large-grain grain bait to fish half a meter to 1 meter away from the nest, so as to avoid the traps in the nest. Small tilapias compete for bait.
3. Fishing for blunt bottom fishing
Large tilapia is more vigilant than small tilapia. Under normal circumstances, it will not leave the bottom water to move in the middle and upper layers. The tilapias that are more courageous like to gather in groups to grab bait in the middle and upper layers. Therefore, when fishing, you can rub the bait on the bottom to avoid the layer of small tilapias, and you can also increase the weight of the lead pendant to allow them to catch the bait. The hook bait can reach the bottom quickly.
4. Light bait
Large tilapia and small tilapia have different taste preferences. Small tilapia likes to eat fishy-smelling bait, while large tilapia likes to eat fishy-smelling bait. If you like to eat light bait, you can use harder or lighter bait. The purpose of using hard bait is to reduce the atomization speed of the bait to ensure that there is still bait on the hook after bottoming out. The purpose of using light bait is to reduce the interest of small tilapia. .
To sum up, small tilapia making nests is the most troublesome thing for fishermen. To avoid small tilapia and catch large tilapia, we can start from three aspects. One is to use large particles. When fishing with grain bait on the edge of the nest, the second is to rub the bait or increase the weight of the lead pendant to make the hook bait reach the bottom quickly. The third is to make the bait harder and lighter when opening the bait.
