The method of catching freshwater catfish mainly lies in the choice of bait and the operation of fishing rod. According to my own experience, catfish like to live under the water, with little activity, so the lead hook with soft worms is the best combination of hook and bait, and the bullet lead Dezhou fishing group is the best choice for underwater fishing spots with many obstacles. Lead hook or bullet lead I often choose 7 grams to use. Soft worms use curly-tailed maggots. This kind of bait has a big, curved tail, which can keep spinning and disturbing after entering the water, like a small creature. Coupled with the lead hook, the whole hook bait can sink to the bottom smoothly and reach the swimming layer of the fish easily and accurately.

After the selection of soft bait is completed, the method of operating the fishing rod is: the fisherman throws the hook bait group to the punctuation, and when it naturally falls to the bottom of the pool, immediately tightens the fishing line, slightly lowers the fishing rod, slowly swings the rotating wheel to take up the line, and constantly stirs the fishing rod slightly, so that the soft bait in the water seems to be in an abnormal linkage state. Repeated operation like this, once the fish finds the target coming to take the bait, the fishing rod will suddenly be pulled out of a wonderful arc, followed by the unique cheerful "squeak" sound when the fishing boat goes out to sea. These are all connected instantly after the fish is hooked, so it is also very important to adjust the resistance of the fishing boat before fishing to prevent the fish from being disconnected or the line is disordered immediately after being hooked.

As for fishing tackle, I usually use 1.8m or 2. 1m for freshwater fishing, and choose ML or m for tonality, nylon line for fishing line10-12kg, and fishing boat winding length 100m. What is more important is to choose the lead hook or the weight of lead in the bullet. I choose the weight of 7 grams because it is too light, the hook bait will sink slowly, and it is not easy to throw long-distance punctuation marks, while too heavy will lead to bad bait and bad underwater soft bait.
