Loach is a benthic fish that prefers to live in places with many aquatic plants, or in places with many stones, which are conducive to their hiding and foraging, and the gill has spines but is similar to loach, so this is how the loach gets its name. Loach, is one of the few carnivorous fish in China, they like to live in a place where the water flow is relatively slow, the more debris the place likes, especially like to live in more places, its nature is domineering and fierce, eating fierce, as long as they find food, they bite the prey will swallow in the mouth, so there will often be black drift phenomenon, a mention of a quasi, after the hook struggle is strong, feel good, the fish must quickly pull it out of the water, or it is easy to be drilled into the stone crevices, easy to appear hanging bottom phenomenon, If you want to fish well, we need to master some details, and I will tell you in detail how to fish.
<h1>The main points of this article:</h1>
From the above points, we can see that it is also difficult to catch loach, especially if there are fewer loach, if you want to catch them, we must do enough work, otherwise it is difficult to successfully catch them, if you want to catch them, let's first understand the habits of loach.
<h1>The appearance characteristics of the gill</h1>
The loach is small, slender, the common loach is one or two finger sizes, only a few have more than three fingers, the gill, the front end is slightly flattened, the head is long and pointed, the snout is slightly longer, but there is no head behind the eyes, the snout end sticks forward into a way kiss, the dorsal fin has many dense spines, these spines are very sharp, and when encountering danger, their spines will open, and any fish that sees it must give way.
<h1>Life habits of loach</h1>
Loach is one of the benthic fish, they like to live in places with many aquatic plants or prefer to live in places with more stones, they mainly feed on insects in the water, and when food is scarce, they will also catch small fish, shrimp and feed on them.
Through the above two points, we basically have a certain understanding of the gill, and then we have to rely on our luck and strength.
How do we know if there are loach in the waters? How should we judge?
<h1>1: Look</h1>
First of all, we go to a strange water, we don't rush to fish, we first have to walk along the shore, the focus should be on the place where there are many weeds and stones, generally where there are loach, we can find their traces, while walking and paying attention, as long as we find their traces, we can judge that there are loaches here, on the contrary, if they are not found, there may be no loach.
<h1>2: Ask</h1>
Unlike other fish, loach is rarely levitated, only a very few cases they will surface, so we can see if there are fishing friends near the water, because they often fish in this water There are no loach, they are relatively clear, if there are anglers fishing nearby, we can go over and ask them, ask them if they have ever fished for loach or have they seen a loach, as long as they have seen or fished, the anglers will answer you truthfully. Because the world's fishing friends are close to the family, most of them will patiently answer your questions, only a very small number of fishing friends are indifferent, whether there is a loach they will also tell you, if they say there is, we can know that there are loach here, if you have not fished, nor have you seen, then there may be no loach in the waters.
<h1>catch</h1>
If we walk along the shore and do not find the presence of loach, and there is no angler fishing nearby, then we can only prove by opening the fishing method, generally as long as there is this fish in the water, we use the bait it likes to eat, we have a chance to catch them, so fishing is also a good way.
Through the above methods, as long as we know that there is such a fish in the water, then we can proceed to the next step of planning and find a good fishing position.
<h1>Fishing position selection</h1>
We all know that loach in general like to live in places with slow flow, especially places with more weeds or stones, because these places can provide them with hiding, these are also more food, insects and small fish and shrimp also like to live there, so we choose the fishing position, we have to focus on choosing these places, after finding the fishing position, we can carry out the next step of the plan, nesting.
<h1>Nesting</h1>
We don't care what fish we catch, nesting is essential, want to catch well, we must do a good nest, then how do we do nests, we do nests are all dependent on food to lure fish into the nest, nest material selection is very critical, what fish we catch, nest material selection is not the same, gill is a carnivorous fish, so we must choose meat, such as common: earthworms, shrimp, pork liver, etc., these are good nest materials, nesting is very good, the odd feature is fishy enough, so it is easy to attract loach.
<h1>Fishing tackle selection</h1>
General fishing for gill, we are mainly based on hand rods, other as a supplement, because these fish like to hide in the place of more debris or stones, if you choose other rods, it is easy to hang the bottom phenomenon, the hand rod is slightly better, because we can fish a little bit off the bottom, so that we can reduce the probability of hanging the bottom, plus we want to fish is the feel, the hand rod is to feel and make, so the hand rod fishing feel is definitely better than other rods, so combined with the above reasons, the hand rod is the best choice.
<h1>There are several options for bait</h1>
<h1>1: Earthworms</h1>
Earthworm is the most common bait, earthworms are also relatively easy to find, as long as the land is a little moist, we can dig them, its characteristics are resistant, durable, earthworms hang on the hook, it can also survive for a long time, do not need to change the bait frequently, the more they struggle in the water, the easier it is to attract the attention of the gill, as long as the gill finds them, they will quickly launch an attack, once they bite the bait, they will quickly swallow into the stomach, so the loach generally eat the hook, there will be black drift, we lift the rod, Most of them are fished, so the benefits of earthworms are also many.
<h1>2) Shrimp</h1>
Shrimp is also a relatively common bait, shrimp is also easier to find, the basic vegetable market has small shrimp to sell, we only need to buy a few dollars can fish for a long time, fishing loach can use live shrimp, dead shrimp can also, but it is best to live shrimp, because live shrimp is also relatively easy to attract attention, so the effect will be better than dead shrimp, so shrimp is best to choose live shrimp.
<h1>3: Insects</h1>
Insects are also more common bait, insects are also easier to use, we can go to the flower and bird market that buy, there are a variety of bugs, we try to choose smaller, because the gill fish mouth is also relatively small, too big is not easy to swallow, so we buy bugs to choose smaller points.
The above several types of bait are more suitable for fishing for gill, after the bait is selected, how should we fish?
<h1>Fishing method</h1>
Fishing for gill, we sometimes can not be like fishing for other fish, if the mouth of the fish is not good, we can use, the trap method, that is, every once in a while to pull the bait, so that you can also attract the attention of the loach, as long as the loach finds food, they will bite the hook, so the fishing is also a good fishing method.
Summary: Loach is now a relatively rare fish, unlike when I was a child, when I was a child, these fish were still very many, and often seen, and now it is more difficult to see them, so we catch loach, try to put it, if you want to eat it, take some large, small put away, leave them to breed, and there will be more loach fishing in the future.
