Grass carp is called pomfret, while herring is called black pomfret in the south, which makes many people mistakenly think that herring and grass carp belong to the same category. Many people know that the effect of grass carp fishing is better than that of grass carp fishing, but the habits of herring are very different from those of grass carp. Anti-hypoxia ability is stronger than grass carp. At the same time, herring mainly feeds on soft-shelled creatures such as snails and mussels at the bottom of the water, and only eats some plant foods when food is seriously scarce.

2. So herring lives at the bottom of the water layer most of the time, and some herring cultured in black pits will float in search of more food in the season with the strongest appetite, but this phenomenon is rare. Therefore, herring fishing should be based on the bottom. Occasionally, herring fishing in black pits will have the phenomenon of off-bottom interface, which needs special attention.

Weather suitable for herring fishing:

1. Among the "four big fish", silver carp and bighead carp have the strongest adaptability to the change of water temperature, but their cold tolerance is worse than that of crucian carp, and their high temperature tolerance is worse than others. Therefore, in southern areas such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and Hainan, herring can be caught all year round. However, when the temperature is the highest in summer and it is particularly cold in winter, the opening of herring will be significantly reduced, so deep-water fishing can only be used.

2. In the northern area, due to the large temperature difference between day and night in summer, the fishing of herring is very unstable. Only autumn is the best time to catch herring, but there are few wild herring in the north. If you want to experience the fun of herring fishing, you can only go to the black pit.

Generally speaking, as long as you avoid the high temperature in summer and the cold in winter, you can catch herring when the temperature is moderate. In addition, herring fishing should try to avoid the hot and low-pressure weather before it rains in summer. But herring often eats a lot the day before the temperature drops sharply, in order to replenish physical strength and prepare for the coming cold. This weather is very suitable for fishing.
