Carp can be said to be the only kind of large fish that can be caught in the cold winter, in fact, even carp in the winter is not very large, generally about one pound, four or five pounds is not very common, catch more than a dozen pounds in addition to luck and density, want to go fishing is not very easy.
Today, Brother Kasa came to share his experience of fishing carp in the cold winter, because he personally does not like to eat carp, so he does not fish a lot, so the experience may have certain limitations, but basically my goal is carp, then it is difficult for fishing friends nearby to catch me, and there are many times when I catch dozens of pounds of explosive protection records (specifically pay attention to my video).
Carp can be fished in cold winter
Underwater terrain suitable for carp fishing
Put this up front because it's especially important! Carp are timid by nature, so they are particularly picky about the underwater terrain, as long as the underwater terrain is different, even if they are separated by one or two meters, the catch will be very different. In principle, carp likes terrain that makes it feel safe, so which terrain has a sense of security, I summarized it as follows (derived from actual combat experience):
There are many obstacles; carp prefer carp in places with lodging trees, rocks, and more humus on the bottom of the water, and these places are also the wintering places for carp.
There is a recessed place; that is, there is a recessed place under the water, and it is not necessary to recede too much, which is 30CM-50CM next to the concave, and it is easier to make a nest carp in this recessed place.
Two barriers and gaps; cold winter sunny days can find more than 2 meters of two barriers, but cloudy days can not, recently in the same two barriers tried several times, 8.1 pole in the sunny four hours or so to catch eight carp (less than a pound), but cloudy days past not a single catch.
Reeds and thick grass areas; carp like to stay in this kind of place, first, this kind of place food is more than this kind of place is relatively warm, from the current cold winter until the late spring this place is an ideal fishing spot for carp fishing.
Old river channel; that is, the submerged river channel, generally connected to the inlet, much deeper than other places, in winter this kind of place can also catch carp and generally not too small.
This kind of place is suitable for heavy nests of larger carp, that is, the shore is a very steep high ridge and below is at least 4 meters above the deep pool, this kind of place in other seasons often has large carp jumping, winter age does not jump but they will also be below.
In principle, the place where carp like to feed is generally a slope down and then the front is quite flat, we can hit the place where the slope and the flat place intersect, and then fish the front of the nest place. Another one is: carp like soft mud bottom, it likes arch bottom, so we try to avoid hard bottom, is where there is no soft bottom hard bottom as long as it is the above underwater terrain is no problem.
Carp caught in winter are generally not large
Bait and nest material for carp fishing in the winter
Carp eat too many things, fishy earthworms, vegetarian flour it eats, but Brother Kasa saw you use duck feed, rapeseed cake, peanut dry three kinds. It is not that they are particularly effective, but the price is cheap, easy to buy, the effect is not bad, especially the duck feed is really good, the last one or two years have been used more, each time buying is 80 pounds a whole package.
As for the general comprehensive commodity bait of the bait can catch carp, only need to be combined with a little additive to make it, but I personally like to use the snail no. 2, 918 big thing version and then mix a little sugar or honey, this formula exploded several times at the end of last year. The specific method is: first soak the snail carp (soaked) and put in three spoonfuls of honey, and then add the 918 large object plate in batches until the bait is well pinched.
The homemade bait recipe is: 500g of soybean flour, 300g of rapeseed cake (can be replaced by peanut dry), 20g of honey, 10g of clove powder, stir-fry the first two and mix them all together, and then use non-pure raw beer to open the bait (you can use pineapple beer to open the bait), you can also add state powder (light bran alabash brushed powder) to adjust to your favorite state. However, carp fishing can be kneaded into a ball, do not pay too much attention to the state.
Carp are not too picky eaters
Additive for carp fishing in winter
So far, there are at least dozens of additives that Brother Kasa himself has used, but the best performance in carp fishing is: honey, followed by milk powder and cloves. Sweet potato paste of the small medicine of the commodity has a certain use, but the vast majority of what kind of egg milk, sow milk and so on are fake, even if the real performance is not as good as honey in case. If there is no honey, you can use sugar instead, but add 1-2 Coke bottle caps to the fist-sized bait, which is more than a lot of hands! As for honey, a spoonful of fist-sized bait can be added, and there is no harm in adding more, but the benefits are not obvious.
Fishing for carp can be added with honey
Equipment options for carp fishing in the winter
Fishing rod; needless to say, an inch long and an inch strong, 4.5 unless it is a weir pond or a black pit, the reservoir and river you better or 7.2, even if 9.1 as long as you can shake it up, it will definitely be better than 7.2.
Fishing line; it is recommended that you use the main line of 2.0 with the PE line of 0.4, because carp fishing does not need to be adjusted, and it is directly without hooks to level the water fishing 4 mesh on the line. This combination even if you encounter 10 pounds of carp also has a fight, small one two two is not a problem. What fish mouth light to catch the mouth does not exist, just for wild fishing carp, blunting is far better than the effect of tuning, because the carp mouth is down, generally before eating the lips first touch the line, this area has a net then it will have a stress response, touch the fishing line to run!
Fish hook; carp fishing is still recommended Isena and new Kanto, generally in the winter 3-5 Ishin, No. 1 or so of the new Kanto can be, I personally like the new Kanto, pick fish convenient.
Floating; this is casual, you have what to use, the wild carp do not pick floating, do not be fooled by those expensive floats, I fish carp basically look at eating lead, if the wind is big long rod is not good to throw on the hollow tail of eating lead 6g, in general, use the thickened tail of eating lead 2-4g.
An inch long and an inch strong
I'm Brother Saga, I hope you're wild fishing!
