The best bait for fishing include earthworms, red worms, corn, etc.
1. Earthworms.
As a common animal, earthworms are distributed in the north and south of the motherland. For us anglers, earthworms are also known as "universal bait". This is because earthworms have a high broad spectrum and many fish will feed on them. Earthworms contain animal protein needed for fish growth, so they are very popular among fish.
There are many types of earthworms, but the earthworms we commonly use for fishing are mainly divided into two types, one is red earthworms, and the other is cyan earthworms. In comparison, red earthworms are brighter in color, while cyan earthworms are more resilient and smell more fishy.
2. Red worms.
Red worms are commonly known as water fleas and fish worms. They are small red bugs, about 2 mm long, that live in fresh water. Earthworms, silkworm chrysalis and the like are excellent bait for fishing, especially in winter, they are the first choice for most fishing friends.
Red worms are a relatively common bait that many fish prefer. However, its price is relatively expensive among baits, so it is not recommended to use it when fishing for smaller fish species. It can be a very good choice if you want to catch your favorite fish species.
There are two types of red worms on the market: male and female, and the prices vary greatly. Male red worms are manually selected one by one, and the price is relatively high. However, the amount of male red worms used is much less than that of female red worms. They can be hung directly on a fishhook and used, and the effect is higher than that of female red worms. , so it is generally best to use male red worms when fishing.
3. Corn.
Corn is recognized by fishermen as an all-rounder. Whether it is fishing for large or small fish, it is very good at attracting fish and retaining nests! Corn contains protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron, carotene, vitamins B1, B2, niacin, sitosterol, lecithin, vitamin E, lysine, etc.
Among these many contents, protein, vitamins, and calcium are exactly the elements that fish like very much, and they are also elements that they need to take in! Fresh corn has a lighter specific gravity and floats better in water. At the same time, its unique juice will dissolve in water. It is the best choice for fishing for fish in the middle and upper layers, as well as fish floating on the bottom!
