Grass carp has three very classic characteristics, the first is to eat, grass carp mainly eat plant bait, especially various terrestrial plants, the nutrition of the food is not high, but the growth is very rapid, which is naturally the result of being able to eat. The second is to like high dissolved oxygen, which is easy to die if dissolved oxygen is slightly low. However, when the water temperature is too high, the dissolved oxygen in the water will be insufficient, and the grass carp has developed the ability to withstand heat, and can also be active in shallow water with high temperature but high dissolved oxygen on dog days. Grass carp does not like high temperatures, and the essence of high temperature tolerance is the demand for dissolved oxygen. The third is fear of wind and rain, when it is windy and rainy, the water temperature and dissolved oxygen in the deep water layer will also be improved, and the water layer where the grass carp is located will become deeper, but it is not easy to fish.
From a seasonal point of view, the peak season for grass carp fishing is between late spring and late autumn every year. In spring, grass carp do not open too late, but the first to open is usually the fry in grass carp, which are larger than crucian carp. Large grass carp can also be encountered occasionally, especially when fishing for crucian carp with bloodworms. At this time, the grass carp is not very effective if it is specifically fished, because the temperature fluctuates in the first half of spring, and the fish condition of the grass carp is very unstable. However, in late spring, the plants grow wildly, and the grass carp really starts to become easy to fish. At this time, the temperature is not high, the shallow water layer is much warmer than the deep water layer, and it has the characteristics of high dissolved oxygen, so when fishing grass carp in late spring, you can fish the bottom or float.
Grass carp like to eat all kinds of terrestrial plants, so when nesting, you can get some grass on the shore, and then catch large grass carp. What kind of grass to use, what kind of grass to shoot, how to fish, these are all very particular, because the simpler the fishing method, the more tricks are often involved. It is necessary to analyze the water layer in which the grass carp is located, and then choose what water layer to play the grass nest. For example, if the weather is fine, especially in the morning and dusk, you can play a floating nest. If it is windy or rainy, you can make a bottom nest or a semi-water nest. If it is after a shower, it is best to play a floating nest as well. Generally speaking, when the deep water layer can meet the requirements of grass carp for water temperature and dissolved oxygen, the water layer where the grass carp is located must not be shallow, because the shallow water layer is not safe enough.
Different water layer nesting methods are not the same, if it is a floating nest, you only need to get some young grass without peculiar smell on the shore, and throw it on the water surface, but it should be noted that this method refers to suitable for fishing still water, and the wind is small, but this kind of sunny day breeze or windless weather, grass carp is just in the shallow water layer. If it is a bottom nest, in fact, grass carp is not a fish that feeds on the bottom, and the so-called bottom nest is actually off the bottom. Generally, it is a relatively tall grass, and the root part of the grass can be tied with a stone to sink to the bottom. If you make a half-water nest, you still have to cut some grass, or get some reed leaves, tie them with rope, tie the other end of the rope with stones, bricks, and sink into the water. The latter two methods can also be effective in gathering fish on the surface of the water with a little water.
The use of grass nest fish, with bait is very particular, the effect of the bait is mainly like this: the first is reeds, young grass, especially in the reed roots to get some shoots, this thing is easier to find in spring, used to fish grass carp effect is good. The second is seaweed, green silk algae, and the effect of grass carp fishing is also good, especially seaweed. The seaweed needs to be rubbed into a ball after the moisture returns, and it will be stretched out after entering the water. The third is wolfberry and mulberry, especially mulberry is easier to get in late spring, which is the killer bait for grass carp fishing. The dried fruits of the wolfberry are directly hooked, and after entering the water, they are soaked softly, and the taste and color are very attractive to fish. The fourth is insect bait, there are no grasshoppers in spring, mainly white worms. If it is a floating nest, the bait should be about 20 cm below the water surface. If it is a bottom nest or a semi-water nest, the bait should also be in the water layer slightly below the grass nest, because the feeding of grass carp starts from the lower end.
If you use grass bait to catch grass carp, you must pay attention to the best grass bait into small balls, the hook is on the lower end of the grass bait, and the grass carp eats by biting the lower end of the grass bait first, so as to ensure that the grass carp bites the hook earlier. There are also homemade hooks with lead sinkers, or hook handles with fuses wrapped around them, all to ensure that the hook is at the bottom of the bait after it is in place. Please pay attention to the collection and like, update on time every day, thank you fishing friends!
