Catching method:

1. Net catching method: Net catching method is a commonly used method to catch loaches. The method is to first place a dense mesh net in fish ditches, fish gathering places, etc. A fixed feeding place is then used to attract loaches to feed. When the loaches gather, the net can be quickly lifted out of the water to capture a large number of loaches.

2. Cage catching method: Cage catching method is a common method for catching loaches. The method is to first buy or make your own dense-eye ground cage, and then put rice bran, wheat bran, soybean meal and other bait into the ground cage. And sink to the bottom of the water, and the fish can be picked up every 2 to 3 hours. This method is suitable for catching wild loaches.

3. Gathering method: Gathering method is a common method for catching loaches. The method is to tie straw, wheat straw, etc. into bundles, then use a thick stick to poke a few holes and bury them in fish ditches to gather fish. In places such as Taipa, loaches will move into the grass to overwinter in winter. You only need to lift the grass to catch the loaches.

4. Digging and catching method: The digging and catching method is a common method for catching loaches. The method is to pile several piles of organic fertilizers in the water, such as cow dung, chicken manure, etc. In winter, loaches will gather in the warm water. Loaches can be caught at or around the base of tall, food-rich compost piles by simply digging through the compost.

Notes:

1. There is a lot of mucus on the surface of the loach and it is very slippery. When catching the loach, you can put some dry mud on your hands so that the loach will not be so slippery.

2. Loach is a temperature-changing fish. When the water temperature is lower than 5℃, it will burrow into the mud to survive the winter. At this time, you only need to dig along the cave to catch the loach.

3. In addition to breathing through gills, loach can also perform intestinal respiration. In a water-deficient environment, it can survive for a long time as long as the soil is kept moist.
