Wild crucian carp is delicious, nutritious and high in protein, which is the first-class food fish in fresh water. Large crucian carp with an individual of more than 250 grams, because of its slow growth, is relatively small, and it is not often caught. Naturally, things are rare, so it is very challenging for fishermen. If we want to catch big crucian carp in natural waters, we must first understand the living habits and feeding habits of big crucian carp, so as to have more opportunities to catch them.

1. Living habits and feeding habits of Carassius auratus

Carassius auratus has a strong ability to adapt to the environment. It is resistant to low temperature, hypoxia, cold and alkali ... It is quiet and timid by nature, has a high alertness, and is afraid of strong light. It is difficult to see them in crystal clear waters. It lives in deeper waters and generally does not float easily. It is a typical benthic fish. The big crucian carp in natural waters is completely different from the small crucian carp in food habits, just like the dietary differences between adults and children. Because young crucian carp are in the growing period, they are more interested in foods with high animal content; Mature crucian carp, on the other hand, prefers local natural plants and cereals, because plants or cereals are rich in water and have a wide variety, which can be eaten by crucian carp. Although the northern and southern regions and waters are different, and the species of big crucian carp are also different, their favorite foods are the same.

Second, find the waters where the big crucian carp live and find the waters where they live.

This is the key to whether you can catch big crucian carp. Big crucian carp is not found in all waters, because the growth rate of big crucian carp is slow, and it usually takes about 3 ~ 5 years to reach 250 ~ 500 grams. Therefore, if we want to catch big crucian carp, we must choose artificial reservoirs or natural lakes with deep water, large area, perennial water and never dried up. In addition, if you want to catch big crucian carp in wild ponds, you should also choose ponds that have not been cleaned for at least 3 years and have been fished in large quantities.

Third, grasp the characteristics of fishing season

Although you can catch big crucian carp in any season, spring and late autumn and early winter are the best seasons to catch big crucian carp every year. This is because the temperature and water temperature are high in summer and early autumn, and the feeding desire of the big crucian carp is not strong (15 ~ 25℃ is the best feeding temperature for the big crucian carp). In addition, a large number of miscellaneous fish scramble for bait, so the timid big crucian carp is either afraid to feed in the nest or lurks in the deep water (it should be noted here that it is easy to catch the big crucian carp at night in late spring and early summer as long as the temperature difference between day and night is small). Spring is the season when the big crucian carp is ready to lay eggs. They must eat more food and save more nutrition for having children, so the first feeding peak of the big crucian carp appears. At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, as the water temperature drops day by day, other fish slowly enter the hibernation period. Some of those annoying miscellaneous fish will die naturally, and some have little activity under the restriction of low water temperature, but the big crucian carp needs to store enough nutrients to prepare for the winter, and then forage everywhere, which will lead to the second feeding peak of the big crucian carp, so we anglers will certainly have a good harvest as long as we grasp these two best seasons to catch the big crucian carp.

Fourth, the skills of fishing big crucian carp

The hanging fishing method is widely used by many fishing friends to fish big crucian carp in natural waters, and the practice has proved that the effect is remarkable, especially in the fish situation of water cooling and small opening of big crucian carp in winter. The reason lies in the combination of lure and fishing by hanging fishing, sensitive signal and high concealment, which has a strong sense of loyalty to the timid and suspicious habits of big crucian carp, so it is not surprising that it is easy to catch big crucian carp. However, there are some differences between fishing big crucian carp in natural waters and fishing big crucian carp in intensive ponds in terms of fishing group equipment, bait selection and fishing technology application.

1.Fishing tackle equipment

Fishing big crucian carp in natural waters is very complicated and unknown, so we should reasonably match the fishing tackle according to the individual size of the fish, the speed of fishing and the depth of water.

(1) Fishing rod: It is advisable to choose a hard rod with a length of 4.5 ~ 5.4 meters, and the tonality should not be too soft but not too hard. The fishing rod with the tone of Sanqi is the most suitable, so that the fish will not feel strong pain when the fish is caught in the water and will not run away from the fish in the nest.

(2) Fishing line: The main line should be a special "Tao system" line with good quality, and the line with 0.6 ~1.2 should be configured according to the situation. The sub-line should also be a line with strong nodules, mainly 0.3 ~ 0.6, and it should be replaced according to the water temperature and the fish's struggle. However, the main and sub-lines should not be too big as far as possible (the big crucian carp is cunning by nature), and it can withstand the pull of the fish and not run away from the fish.

(3) Fishing hook: It is advisable to choose No.3 ~ No.6 hooks with white sleeves with sharp hook tips and thin and firm hooks.

(4) Buoy: choose the buoy with moderate body, long feet and long tail; No.2 ~ No.5 hard tail marker with fast turning, average descending speed and good stability is better. When the water in the fishing waters is deep and windy, the marker can be used more, because the large counterweight of the buoy is increased accordingly, so that the rod can be cast smoothly and quickly reach the dens at the bottom through the water layer of miscellaneous fish. If the water depth of the fishing spot is moderate and the small fish is badly hooked, the characteristics of strong anti-interference and true signal of the large soft tail can be used to directly hit the bottom big crucian carp.

2. Selection of bait

The choice of bait is very important for catching large crucian carp in natural waters. It is not possible to choose powder bait with light specific gravity, fast atomization and strong taste like catching crucian carp in aquaculture ponds or competitive competitions. Such bait is easily surrounded by miscellaneous fish. Because it is inevitable for small miscellaneous fish to get hooked when fishing in wild waters, we should not only consider reducing the predation of small fish, but also choose the original bait with coarse particles, large proportion and light taste according to the characteristics of big crucian carp's preference for plants and cereals, so as to lure and retain big crucian carp. In the preparation of bait, it should be light, heavy and sticky. The sticky bait makes it impossible for small fish to swallow it at once, which can increase the time of bait attachment. The bait is heavy and tasteless, which can speed up the bait in place and avoid attracting a large number of small fish into the nest, thus leaving more opportunities for the big crucian carp. As for the specific choice of bait, due to different waters, north-south differences, seasonal changes and other differences, the choice and deployment of bait should be flexible in line with the feeding habits of crucian carp, and never stick to the rules.

3. Application of technology

Many fishermen use the hanging fishing method in natural waters, but they can't catch big crucian carp, or have little harvest. This is because they have invariably moved the concept of pool fishing to wild fishing. There are obvious differences between fishing big crucian carp in natural waters and fishing big crucian carp in ponds: first, we should control the rhythm of throwing and lifting rods, and the frequency should not be too fast. We should know that frequent lifting rods and changing bait will disturb the cunning big crucian carp and make them afraid to enter the nest for food; Secondly, under normal circumstances, it is better to adjust the fishing of the buoy to be ineffective or dull, such as adjusting 2 fishing points and 3 fishing points, so that when small miscellaneous fish or small crucian carp eat bait at the bottom, the buoy will not make a big move, but the mark of the big crucian carp will be obvious after swallowing the hook, avoiding the trouble of frequently pulling the rod and missing the fish; In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the bait used for fishing big crucian carp should not be too small. It is best to fish with bigger bait and try not to use bait. Big crucian carp is not interested in small bait balls.

Hanging fishing is not the only fishing method for big crucian carp. Hand-rod traditional fishing has many advantages in fishing big crucian carp in natural waters, such as fishing in deep water (more than 6 meters), fishing in grass holes, fishing in many nests, obstacles in fishing spots, etc. When these hanging fishing cannot be used or the effect is greatly reduced, traditional fishing can show its talents. As the saying goes, "there is no fixed fishing method, and the fittest is the best". There is no fixed fishing method at all, especially for big crucian carp in natural waters. Only by flexibly using different fishing methods according to different water conditions and fish conditions can we catch more big crucian carp.

Fishing skills in spring

Fishing tackle: soft rod, thin thread and small hook. Spring fishing should use a hand pole, and the pole should be soft and 5.4-6.3 meters long.

Shallow water: in spring, fishing must choose shallow water, shore, beach and aquatic plants to catch fish.

Living water: It brings food and fresh oxygen. Fish love living water area. Fishing spots should be chosen at the edge of flowing living water, on both sides of the water inlet and at the water plants.

Grass hole: fish often inhabit under the grass, look for food, and choose grass hole and grass edge as fishing point, which will surely have better harvest.

South wind: It's just warm in spring, and the east wind, southeast wind and southwest wind are all good for fishing, but the west wind and northwest wind are not suitable for fishing. Spring fishing should choose sunny weather in the south wind, or when it rains for a long time and the first or second grade south wind blows, which is a good time for fishing in spring.

Meat bait: After a long winter break, the temperature rises under the sunshine, and the belly is empty, which urgently needs to fill the hunger. The vegetarian food required by fish has not yet grown up, so the general omnivorous fish mainly rely on looking for meat food. Sometimes, it is impossible to catch fish with meat bait such as red worms, earthworms and shrimps.

Talking about the Best Season for Fishing Crucian Carp

Fishing crucian carp in natural waters, in the middle of the year, spring or late autumn, is the best season for fishing crucian carp.

As the proverb goes, "Fish come to the side in spring". It is said that the early spring is coming, and the crucian carp likes to feed in the grass in natural waters when it comes to the breeding season. Therefore, the method of catching crucian carp in spring is quite different from that in other seasons.

The difference is nothing more than two kinds of fishing methods: active walking fishing and fixed fishing. Based on the author's years of experience and opinions on crucian carp fishing, it is considered that "it is good to fish crucian carp in spring".

First, go fishing for crucian carp.

In spring, the three preferred waters for fishing crucian carp are:

(1) natural river. Natural rivers often stretch for miles. Once the tide comes in and out, it is deep and shallow, and it is not easy to dry up. There are many aquatic plants along the river, rich wild crucian carp, and individual meat is delicious.

(2) Small and medium-sized reservoirs. This small and medium-sized reservoir is easy to find in the city, and its depth is not too deep. The wild small crucian carp in this reservoir can be said to be inexhaustible.

(3) A pond without water. This kind of pond will not be drained to catch fish, and there are many wild crucian carp.

Second, go fishing for crucian carp.

Three principles should be adhered to when choosing fishing position for crucian carp in spring:

1, safety;

2. Chaoyang grass;

3. It is convenient for fishing.

Natural river:

(1) For natural rivers, the riverbed should be gentle, and fishing spots with changeable riverbed and different depths should not be selected.

(2) Choose the dense aquatic plants along the river, and don't choose the fishing position in the cold water area under the tree.

(3) The water depth on the shore should be in muddy water area within 1 m, and deep water or crystal clear fishing spots are not selected.

Small and medium-sized reservoirs:

(1) For small and medium-sized reservoirs, you should choose the aquatic plants in Chaoyang Shoal within 50 meters of the free water inlet on the reservoir, and do not choose the fishing position in the deep water downstream.

(2) For crucian carp fishing in the reservoir, the water depth can be1.5m-2.0m, and the over-deep water area is not selected as the fishing position.

Dry pond:

(1) A dry pond is usually built at the foot of a mountain. The fishing position should be near the water inlet and outlet, and the fishing position should not be in the middle of the mountain or behind the mouth.

(2) The channel should choose a safe and convenient place to go back and forth as the fishing position, and do not choose the mountain side with dense forests and difficult passage as the fishing position.

Third, the fishing method of fishing crucian carp

Raiders classic tips:

The unique effect of fishing crucian carp in spring in "laying long lines and fishing more"

(1) Fishing tackle combination: 3.6-meter and 4.5-meter middle-adjusting hand poles. Fishing line: 1# main line, 0.6# sub line. Fishing hook: free choice of skyhook, single hook and double hook, the hook type should be small but not large. The standard is mainly seven-star standard, supplemented by straight standard (the standard is more flexible). A small pendant, a small connector, a cheat sheet net and a fish protector. Long poles are used for reservoirs and short poles for ponds. It rains a lot in spring, so don't forget your rain gear.

(2) Delineate the fishing position and make a good nest: After selecting the fishing targets, you should carefully investigate the water environment when you arrive at the water's edge, and if appropriate, you can make a nest to lure fish for fishing.

When fishing for crucian carp, we should do three things and three things;

(2. 1) play near (grass edge), not far.

(2.2) shallow, not deep.

(2.3) Muddy (water), not clear (water).

The number of nests is from the least to the most. Try fishing for three times during the fishing period 1-2 hours. If there is a surprise, continue to play for 3-4 nests, which may lead to the spectacle of full bloom. Remember to mark each nest immediately after laying it, so as to avoid dislocation and fruitlessness.

(3) There are two kinds of bait and bait: when you go fishing for crucian carp in spring, you can usually prepare two kinds of bait when you make a nest. One is rice wine (800g), and the other is chaff dregs (1000g). When you fish crucian carp in Fuzhou, you can make a nest with chaff dregs, which is a traditional fishing method and the effect is very ideal. However, making chaff bait is a little more troublesome than using rice wine, but fishermen are never afraid of trouble. The specific preparation method is very simple. Take one cent of fine rice bran, half of dividend distiller's grains and half of rice, stir-fry the bran for a while and mix it with the bad rice. Adding 200 grams of rice to the finished chaff can "add icing on the cake".

Bait is the key weapon to win fishing. In spring fishing, meat bait (red earthworm) should be the main bait, supplemented by vegetarian bait. After beginning of spring, Carassius auratus tried every means to find a place where aquatic plants could be used as a "delivery room" to give birth to offspring. At this time, it was very necessary to supplement nutrition, so fat live earthworm was the best bait.

When you go fishing for crucian carp in spring, you will often encounter thunderstorm weather. I wonder if fishermen have noticed that when the temperature suddenly rises, thunder and lightning come together, and thunderstorms come, at this time, all the big crucian carp flock to the grass to grab food, which is very fierce. It can be said that the bait rate has reached the limit, forcing fishermen to be in a hurry and be overwhelmed, and most of them catch plate crucian carp. Local fishermen often look forward to a good time of "thunder in the sky and plate crucian carp in the river to grab it". However, this time is very short. After the thunder stops raining, there is often a clear Wan Li in the sky. At this time, all crucian carp have also "died down" and escaped. If they want to catch one more, they will end up in despair, and many fishermen are puzzled.

note:

(1) Walking fishing for crucian carp is a very interesting fishing method, but it is not recommended by elderly fishermen.

(2) When fishing, it is not always in the order of wiring and nesting, and the nest without fish can jump or abandon.

(3) When fishing, the bait hook must be aimed at the nest, otherwise there is no fish to catch.

(4) When fishing, the action should be slow, so as not to disturb the fish.

Several sets of formulas for fishing crucian carp in four seasons

Characteristics of Carassius auratus

1.Pay attention to making a hole. According to the different time, terrain and waters, measures should be taken to make nests or feed them. For example, the bait nest in the above-mentioned "spring fishing shoal" is better than the on-the-spot nesting effect. If a pond is overgrown with weeds and it is difficult to get off the hook, but there are many crucian carp there, not far from home, or the traffic is convenient, don't let it go. After choosing the right fishing position, open a "hole" of about 1 square meter, thoroughly remove weeds or other obstacles, feed bait the first day and fish the next day, which is far better than the new "hole". If we can find the rotting corpses of small animals, such as dead cats and rotten dogs, we can get a good harvest for 4 ~ 5 consecutive days by tying 1 stone and sinking it into the nest. If you are close to home, you can pour leftovers and cow dung into the nest, and the effect is good.

Make a three-dimensional nest. It is suitable for deep waters under steep slopes or levees. Preparation of bait: stir-fry the crushed bean cake residue, add 1/5 sheep bone powder, and bag it for later use. After reaching the fishing position, add 60% wet soil on the shore, mix well and rub it fine, sprinkle it into the fishing area, and form a three-dimensional nest while sprinkling. Tie three fishing hooks with a hand pole that is flush with the pole line, and match with the float, so that the lower hook just sinks to the bottom, the upper hook is suspended about 8 cm from the bottom, and the other hook is suspended between the upper hook and the lower hook. As bait is continuously thrown into the fishing area, there will be more and more fishing. In the first half hour, there may be few fish, and later, there may be more fish. Even the hook has not yet landed, and it is caught by fish halfway. It is common to catch two fish with one rod, and occasionally three fish with one rod. In order to save bait loading time, red earthworm can be hooked and dipped with some essence, and 3 ~ 5 fish can be caught without changing bait once. Bait mixed with sediment will inevitably "brush" like rain when it is thrown into the fishing area, but as long as it is scattered, a small amount and many times, fish are not afraid, not only crucian carp love to bite hooks, but also carp bite hooks.

When there is a situation in which fish scramble for food on the surface of the water, it means that the bait is thrown too frequently and too much, and the bait rate drops instead. Not only should we stop feeding, but we should also lift the bottom hook to make it close to the surface of the water, pull it into the fish, and there will be a horizontal drift, and use the method of shaking the rod or lifting it up and down to lure the fish into the bait. After the bait is suspended, the fish will sink to the bottom for food again.

2. To master the characteristics of big crucian carp. In the backwater vortex of rivers in rainy season, near the sluice of reservoirs and at the backwater bay of piers, it is often the gathering place of big crucian carp. In the dense pond of duckweed, there is a sound of "ba da", or duckweed is arched, or its head is exposed to oxygen, which is mostly the whereabouts of big crucian carp. If the bait hook has not sunk to the bottom of the water, it is stopped and swallowed by the fish halfway, and the fish floats slowly or lies motionless, mostly because of the big crucian carp. Small drift, or the slower the drift speed, the bigger the individual of crucian carp. When observing the fish star (small bubbles) after making the nest, it is the signal that the big crucian carp enters the nest when it is seen that there are larger bubbles in the dense bubbles.

Attention should be paid to dealing with the shock liquid released after the crucian carp is decoupled. When the crucian carp escapes from the hook, it can secrete shock fluid, prompting its partners to pay attention to danger. When other fish smell the liquid, they run away quickly. If this happens when fishing, it is best to change the fishing position, because it will take a long time to wait for the smell of the shock liquid to dissipate, which will affect the fishing effect. The hand that catches fish and hooks will also be contaminated with this shocking liquid smell, so you should pay attention to cleaning and wiping in time, and then take the bait and hook it, otherwise it will also affect the bait.

4. Pay attention to the influence of wind on crucian carp fishing. In windy and wavy waters, fish are caught faster and more frequently than in quiet and no-wave fishing spots. If it drizzles again, near dusk, the crucian carp can bite the hook to an approximate crazy degree, almost biting when it is dropped. At the peak of hook swallowing, it is often 1 minute to catch 2 fish. The double hook has a long brain line and the main line is flush with the pole, which has better effect. The reason may be that in the stormy waters, dissolved oxygen is sufficient, and it rains lightly, and the fish mistakenly think that night is coming, thus accelerating the feeding progress. We should seize this opportunity and not let it go. It seems that the southwest wind is 3 ~ 4, because the wind is too small to blow the waves, and the wind is too strong to watch the drift.

5. Pay attention to the drift and grasp the best time to lift the pole. Small drift, that is, the fishing drift rises by 2 ~ 3 squares, which, like drift resistance, is mostly done by big crucian carp, so the pole should be lifted steadily.

Large-scale drift, even vertical drift can be sent to horizontal drift, which is often the characteristic of biting the hook, and all crucian carp may appear. After sending the float, you drag the float and flee, and then the lead float appears. In this case, you rarely run fish, even if you lift the pole late, it does not matter. Boring drift, fishing drift will not come back after sinking, mostly because of carp. After the catfish is hooked, it also appears dull and drifting. When using 33 ~ 49.5 cm long brain thread, no matter what kind of fish is hooked, it has never seen the phenomenon of sending and drifting, and it will sink and never come back. Therefore, it is difficult to distinguish between crucian carp, common carp, catfish and grass carp. Drifting, that is, the fishing floats up and down, has a relatively fast frequency, which is mostly caused by small miscellaneous fish, especially earthworm bait. This phenomenon is extremely common, and when the fishermen are bored, they have to use vegetarian bait or both vegetarian and vegetarian bait. No matter whether there is a small drift, a big drift, or a dull drift, we should seize the opportunity to lift the rod, and at the moment when the fish has swallowed the bait and has not spit it out, the fishing hook will be deeply stabbed and fastened by lifting the rod. This is actually the most difficult part to master in the whole process of fishing, especially in fish ponds that sell tickets for fishing, and fish that have been decoupled many times are especially difficult to master. When the fish is caught, the bite is cautious and slight, and often only a little thin skin of the fish mouth can be pulled out. It is often the case that some people have a clear idea, but there are many gaps in actual operation, especially the elderly, who are slow to respond and move slowly, and it is difficult to grasp the best time to lift the pole. Why? This has to start with the hand's pole-lifting action: when the human retina receives the information of fishing and drifting, it is transmitted from the optic nerve to the optic nerve center, and after the analysis and judgment of the cerebral cortex, it sends out instructions to make the motor nerve transmit to the forearm and hand through the spinal cord, thus producing the pole-lifting action. And people's eyes are fixed on fishing and drifting for a long time, and they will be very tired, and sometimes even diplopia will appear, just like the "ghost" on the TV screen. At this time, it is difficult to keep an eye on fishing drift, especially for the elderly. In order to solve this problem, in recent years, many new types of fishing tackle have appeared, such as computer fishing rod, computer automatic fishing device, Shendiao brand fishing device, folding automatic fishing rod, KT-A adjustable automatic fishing rod rack, WL adjustable automatic fishing rod rack and so on. Although these fishing tackle still have some shortcomings, they have taken a gratifying step forward in fishing automation.
