There are soft tails and hard tails for floats, because there are more materials and types of floats, which are suitable for more fish characteristics. The most classic soft-tail float is the soft-tail float of the peacock feather, which has several characteristics. The material limits the amount of buoyancy, so the amount of lead eaten by the float is usually not large, which is more suitable for fishing shallow water, and it is naturally difficult to catch big fish. The drift tail is hollow, and it is necessary to ensure that it is as straight as possible, so the drift tail is relatively short, and many special fishing methods cannot be used, such as fishing strokes.
Soft-tailed floats are often used to catch crucian carp, because this float has the effect of filtering small miscellaneous mouths, and the drift will be more realistic, because the soft-tailed float is more dull. For wild fishing or fish with chaotic mouths, bluntness is not actually a bad thing, but has the characteristics of high and high fish rates. Even many anglers like to use this float when fishing in winter, which is a bit of the opposite. Because the thin hard tail can magnify the drifting phase of the light-mouthed fish, the advantage of the soft tail is that the drifting phase is more realistic, although the floating action is more slight, but if you are used to observing this kind of half-eye or even only one black grid of drifting, all kinds of small movements can hit the fish.
The reason why the soft tail float is more blunt is that the hollow soft tail has a lighter specific gravity on the drifting tail. If the tail thickness of the two floats is the same, one soft tail and one hard tail, the buoyancy generated after entering the water is the same, because the magnitude of the buoyancy is proportional to the displacement. However, the weight of the soft tail float is lighter, and if you only use the drift tail as a comparison, there will be a greater amount of lead to eat. This will be very obvious when weighing the bait, the same bait is weighed under semi-water, the number of meshes that are pressed down on the hard tail float is more, and the number of meshes that are pressed down on the soft tail will be much less. It is precisely because of this feature that the amplitude of the hard tail will be greater for the same strength of the feeding action, which is the reason for the amplification of the drift phase of the hard tail.
Therefore, after getting used to the hard tail float, suddenly try to use the soft tail float, which may be a little uncomfortable when adjusting the float. For example, using hard-tailed floating bait fishing, casually adjusting four fishing and two fishing groups are to the end. However, if you use a soft tail, it may not be in the end. When adjusting the drift of the soft tail float, we should pay more attention to the bottom-finding formula in the drifting, the fishing target > (adjusting the eye-double bait), and the fishing rig will touch the bottom at this time. In terms of distance, the use of soft tail float semi-water state to adjust the drift, assuming that the 4 mesh, after hanging the double bait, there are still 3 meshes left in the float, indicating that the double bait can only press the float into the water, at this time should be hung on the double bait to find the bottom fishing a little more than 3 mesh, at this time the fishing group is to touch the bottom. There is no such thing as fishing for 2 purposes, because the number of fishing floats is 3 meshes, so how can there be a situation of fishing for 2 purposes?
The soft tail float is not very suitable for using too light bait, and the drift will be very unsuitable, can you use the method of lowering the fishing height to ensure that the bait is in the end? There is also a formula for the plumb sinker to touch the bottom, and the fishing eye is >(Adjustment of the eye + double hook), when the fishing mesh is larger than the adjustment of the empty hook and half of the water plus the weight of the hook, the plumb of the fishing rig begins to hit the bottom. The weight of the hook must be considered when lowering the fishing height, otherwise the sinker will hit the bottom. For example, when fishing for crucian carp with bait, a soft-tailed float is used, and a combination of a small hook with a thin line is used. The use of empty hook half water adjustment 4 mesh, at this time cut off the double hook to see the number of meshes, for example, is 5 mesh, this is still more common, because the soft tail float drift tail "eat lead" is larger, the hook can not press how many meshes. Replace the new same line, hang the double bait and see that the mesh is 3 mesh, at this time the fishing 3 mesh multi-point fishing rig touches the bottom, but the fishing 5 mesh multi-point sinker will hit the bottom.
The most agile to the blunt is between 3-5 meshes, if you use a hard tail float, the number of eyes that the double bait and double hook are pressed down, the most agile to the blunt may be 2-6 mesh, and the range that can be adjusted will be larger. The last point is to pay more attention to the weight of the bait and hook when using a soft tail. Please pay attention to the collection and like, update on time every day, thank you fishing friends!
