Today we will talk about the fishing methods and skills of grass carp to increase our probability of catching large grass carp.
First, bait selection
When fishing for grass carp, we try to choose natural food, this step is very important, we can choose to use the most representative natural food - corn kernels, or use reed leaves, young grass leaves can also be. However, corn is still the key object, because grass carp still prefers to eat corn, and its sweetness will be fuller.
2. Suitable fishing methods
Grass carp can use the floating method, which makes it easier to find the swimming layer of grass carp. First of all, you need to increase the hook distance, if the water depth is relatively deep, you can put the hook distance to about 30~50 cm, so that you can quickly find the swimming layer of grass carp. Then, hang the double hook on the corn and directly trim the lead skin to the number of eyes you want to catch. In this process, it is necessary to find the water depth with the heavy lead bottom, and then directly pull down and float to half the water depth, and then hang the corn kernels with both hooks, and then adjust the drift. In this way, the double hook is directly in the half-water position, and the fishing float can be carried out directly.
3. Fishing tackle selection
Fishing for grass carp must choose some suitable fishing tackle, including floating, fishing line, hook, plumb, etc. Among them, floating is very important, and it is necessary to choose a float with suitable size, beautiful shape and good floating performance. Fishing lines also need to choose fishing lines with good quality, wear resistance and strong tensile force. Fish hooks generally choose hooks with larger numbers, such as hooks No. 5 and No. 8. You can choose a smaller plumb so that it will not affect the fishing effect.
4. Drifting skills
Another characteristic of grass carp is that the bite is very light, which requires us to carefully and patiently wait for it to take the bait. While waiting, we need to maintain the sensitivity of the rod tail, and once we feel a slight movement in the rod tail, we must react quickly and gently pull to close the hook. Of course, when fishing grass carp, do not blindly wait, always pay attention to the changes in the float, because the grass carp bites lightly, sometimes just gently swallow the bait, without the hook, at this time the float will have a slight change, which requires us to judge whether the fish is hooked according to the changes in the float.
5. Fishing position selection
In the process of fishing for grass carp, there are also some things to pay attention to. We choose places as close as possible to ponds and ditches where people live, where there is garbage from human life or droppings from chickens, ducks and geese, and these have become food for fish, including inlets and outlets.
When fishing for grass carp, we also need to pay attention to choosing the right weather and time. Generally, grass carp prefer to come out to forage on sunny days, so fishing is best in sunny weather. In terms of time, grass carp prefer to come out to forage in the early morning and dusk, which is also our best fishing time.
Summary: In addition to some of the above tips and considerations, we also need to pay attention to maintaining a good attitude and patience. Grass carp fishing requires not only skill and experience, but also a calm mind, because sometimes we will wait for a long time, or even a whole day without seeing grass carp hooked, but as long as we wait patiently and persevere, there will always be a harvest day.
