I believe this is the doubt of many Taiwanese fishing friends. Why don't fish like the bait they bought at a high price?
Next, let me share my own experience.
There are generally two kinds of baits for Taiwan fishing.
Live bait
Common live baits are earthworms, breadworms, red worms, snails, etc. As creatures existing in nature, they are irresistible temptations for many fish. Compared with commercial bait, it has a great advantage, that is, it has strong integration and is not easy to fall off after being hooked. Suitable for keeping big fish.
Commercial bait
Here I mainly introduce the commercial bait.
In the fishing session, some commercial baits are of very good quality and are deeply loved by fishermen.
Commercial bait is the same, I dare say. There is no friend who goes fishing in Taiwan. I have never heard of the famous old three. It claims to catch all kinds of fish and loves to eat all kinds of fish.
1.Longwang hates field blue crucian carp.
The bait with the highest sales volume is dominated by fishy smell. Even if it is opened alone, it is very easy to use, and its hook is strong. And the ability to lure fish is good.
2. Old Ghost Fast Attack No.2
Quick attack No.2 is a bait with potato powder as raw material, and its flavor is mainly fragrant. Its fragrance has a sweet feeling. Generally, it can be used to adjust the proportion of bait. After adding, the atomization degree of the bait can be adjusted.
3. 918 field battle
9 18 field bait is bran-scented. When it is opened, it can smell a very fragrant malt. I often smell it like two bites. It doesn't contain wire drawing powder, so it can only be used as a rubbing bait. Therefore, it is generally used as basic bait in combination with other baits.
This is the famous old three in Taiwan fishing. Their general mixing ratio is 1: 1:0.5. After mixing, add 1: 1 water. You can kill all kinds of fish. I personally used them to catch carp, crucian carp, grass carp, bream and bighead fish.
In addition to the choice of commercial bait, there are certain skills in bait opening.
Generally, we will open bait in two forms, one is rubbing bait and the other is pulling bait.
The hook-attaching property of rubbing bait is weak, but the atomization ability is good and the fish attraction ability is strong. Some fish species can only be caught by rubbing bait, such as silver carp and bighead fish. Generally, the opening bait of the rubbing bait is less than the pulling bait, so that the bait will present a relatively loose state.
The adhesion of bait is strong, so fish can easily eat it to the death, and it will be hooked at once. Generally, in addition to the common bait, we can also add extra wire drawing powder or flour to increase the viscosity of the bait.
Generally, the bait can't be used immediately after it is opened. We need to let it stand for about 10 minutes to make the bait absorb water better and achieve a better state.
After waiting for enough time, we can rub the bait and pat the air inside. This will enable us to fish better.
If you are really not sure, you can throw a little into the water to see the diffusion degree of the bait. If there is atomization and the bait will not scatter, then the bait will be successfully opened.
On the contrary, what if the water is given too much and the bait doesn't come loose at all? At this time, we can add wire drawing powder or dried bait, and gradually add a few times, so that the bait state can be well pulled back.
Personally, I suggest that the proportion of water can be reduced in summer and increased in winter. Moreover, opening the bait with hot water in winter can make the bait absorb better faster.
The above is my personal experience in using Taiwanese fishing bait.
