The fishing methods of catfish in winter are as follows:

1. Choose suitable bait: Because of the low temperature in winter, catfish's appetite and activity will be reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to choose stinky bait to attract them, such as fermented fish, rotten insects, dead small fish and so on. At the same time, in order to attract catfish better, red earthworm or internal organs of livestock can be used as bait.

2. Adjust the position of the fishing rod: Because the catfish moves underwater, it is necessary to put the fishing rod underwater. In order to increase the success rate of fishing, the fishing rod can be placed near aquatic plants or obstacles to prevent catfish from being frightened and swimming.

3. Use proper fishing tackle: Because catfish has great resistance under water, it is necessary to use stronger fishing tackle. The combination of fishing wheel and long fishing rod is recommended to increase control and sensitivity.

4. Adjust the fishing time: Catfish usually move in the daytime or evening in winter, so it is recommended to fish at this time. In addition, it is best to fish in sunny weather, because catfish like warm environment.

5. Use a long fishing rod: When fishing catfish in winter, using a long fishing rod can make the fishing line easier to control, thus making it easier to feel the fish's reaction.

6. Use slow motion: When fishing catfish in winter, you need to use slow motion to lure the fish to take the bait. For example, you can gently shake the fishing rod to make the bait more realistic, or use a small lifting rod to make it easier for catfish to take the bait.

Matters needing attention in fishing in winter:

1. Choose a suitable place: In winter, due to the low temperature, the activity and appetite of fish will be reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a place with deep water, sheltered from the wind and sunny, and good vegetation coverage for fishing. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid the waters with noise interference or frequent human activities to reduce the fear and interference to fish.

2. Use proper fishing tackle: When fishing in winter, you need to use lighter fishing tackle, such as thin rods, small hooks and small lines, to adapt to the characteristics of reduced fish activity and less resistance. In addition, it is necessary to use sensitive floats and fishing rods in order to better perceive and operate the biting situation of fish.

3. Choose the right time: When fishing in winter, you need to choose the right time to fish. Generally speaking, morning and evening are the best time for fishing, because the temperature is suitable and the light is weak at this time, and the fish's activity and appetite will be relatively good.

4. Keep quiet: When fishing in winter, you need to keep quiet to avoid noise or violent movements affecting the appetite and activities of fish.

5. Pay attention to safety: When fishing in winter, you need to pay attention to safety and avoid fishing in frozen or lush waters. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid walking or standing in steep or slippery places.
