Windy or light rain can dramatically increase the dissolved oxygen content in the water body, so that the yellowtail fish become active. Therefore, anglers should try to choose the weather with a light breeze or 2~3 light wind to go fishing, the catch will often be better.
Two, suitable location for yellowtail fishing. Yellowtail fish on the water quality requirements are relatively high, only in the water quality of the water body is easy to catch yellowtail fish, if there is live water injection, the oxygen content is sufficient, it is better. Yellowtail catfish like to scrape and eat rotting mud, organic debris and various kinds of algae with their mouths at the bottom of the water, which is equivalent to the cleaner of the water body. Therefore, yellowtail catfish are most likely to find food in shallow areas, hard muddy bottoms, and areas with lots of algae and moss. When fishing for yellowtail in the spring, fishing spots should be chosen in shallow areas.
Third, yellowtail fishing. The yellowtail is a bottom-dwelling fish with a downward-facing and small mouth, so let the hook lie on the bottom when fishing for yellowtail. There are three main methods of fishing for yellowtail, namely: adjusting the low eye fishing high eye, traditional fishing and small running lead. If you choose the Taiwan fishing method to catch yellowtail fish, you should use a short rod, small hooks, thin line, when adjusting the drift, first do not hang the subline, first let the lead fall slightly touch the bottom, use a shorter subline, fish hooks and subline lying on the bottom, and then, adjust the level of the water to fish for 2~3 eyes. The core principle of drifting is to let the hook lie on the bottom of the water, which is conducive to yellowtail fish biting.
Four, fishing yellowtail fish with bait skills. In the spring, the yellowtail's food quantity is small, the opening amplitude is also very small, you should try to use a small bait hook, bait specific gravity as small as possible.

Therefore, many anglers in the spring are carp and yellowtail fishing together, the use of old three kinds of carp bait to fish yellowtail is no problem. You can also use pasta to make a nest and then hook it with a rolled bait, the hooked bait should be as small as possible so that the yellowtail fish can eat into their mouths. The better the atomization of the nest, the faster the fish will be attracted.
