The yellow catfish opens a little earlier than expected, and when the rape flowers are in full bloom, the yellow catfish is already very good to catch. Although yellow catfish are fished in spring, summer and autumn, it is easier in spring and autumn because the temperature conditions are more suitable and yellow catfish can be caught throughout the day. In the summer, it is usually better to fish at night, or after the rain rises after the water rises. The advantage of night fishing in spring is that it is not hot, or even a little cold, mainly because there are no mosquitoes, and the yellow catfish at this time can eat and be fat.
1. Fishing position
Yellow catfish is actually a diurnal fish, especially during the warmer season. Because yellow catfish do not need to rely on sight to feed, it is more advantageous to forage at night. The prey can't see the hunter, and the prey is naturally taken care of. In addition to yellow catfish, catfish also have similar habits. Looking for night fishing yellow catfish, you first need to pay attention to the choice of water surface, it is best to choose a small water surface that is not far away and more familiar, wild river, long ditch, river tributary, this kind of water surface yellow catfish is more numerous and easier to fish. The choice of fishing location is usually to fish for muddy water, aquatic weeds, tree stumps, stone crevices, etc., and the more complex the terrain, the more often the hiding place for yellow catfish. Keeping in mind that still water, old water, and muddy water make it easier to catch yellow catfish than other water conditions.
Second, the fishing method
There are many ways to fish for yellow catfish at night, and you can choose reasonably according to your actual situation. We all know that the yellow catfish swallow hook is very exaggerated, and often swallows the hook into the stomach, so it is rare to run the fish when fishing for yellow catfish, which leads to this kind of fish is very suitable for "rigid" fishing, and does not pay much attention to the grasp of the timing of the rod. If you go out for night fishing, you can bring two casting rods with a string hook fishing rig. It is recommended to tie a hook fishing group by yourself, choose a hook with a wide door and barbs, the number of hooks and lines is more appropriate in 3-4, and the spacing must be relatively large to prevent the phenomenon of entanglement.
In spring, you can also choose some muddy water shoals to play with hand rods, which are better places for crucian carp and carp to catch. It is also very suitable for yellow catfish fishing, hang the earthworm and cast it far to the left and right near-shore areas, tighten the line and put the rod flat on the shore, make sure the hook is lying on the bottom, and then clamp the bell on the rod slightly on the side. There is no need to rush to lift the rod, so it does not affect the hand rod fishing, and the hand rod is completely taken care of while playing with the hand rod. In addition to string hook fishing, hand rod fishing is also possible. The best method of hand rod fishing is long rod and short line, because it has the advantage of accurate hooking, and yellow catfish like to hide in obstacles such as aquatic weeds and stone crevices. It can be matched with a single-hook vertical drift fishing rig for traditional fishing, and a luminous rod can be added to the floating drift tail, so that you can directly fish in multiple nests without making a nest.
In addition to this fishing method, there is also the Seven Star Drift Fishing Method, which is also more suitable for fishing yellow catfish, especially the Chaotian hook is the most advantageous. Because the yellow catfish has the characteristic of eating the hook too deep, you can use the hook with a hook in one piece, which is the sky hook, to prevent the hook from being swallowed into the stomach, otherwise it will be very difficult to remove the hook. Seven Stars Drift can't be seen at night, so you need to prepare a few glow-in-the-dark sticks. It is recommended to use a slightly larger Seven Star Drift, because the glow-in-the-dark stick still has a certain weight, which can prevent the Seven Stars from not being able to float. The glow-in-the-dark stick is connected to the top of the seven-star drifting fishing group in this way: first put on a seven-star drift, then put the glow-in-the-dark stick on the fishing line with a rubber band, and then put on a seven-star drift, a luminous stick between the two seven-star drifts, 3 or 4 glow-in-the-dark sticks are enough, and when adjusting the drift, adjust to the water surface to expose a luminous stick. The eating mouth of yellow catfish is often black drifting, oblique drifting more, and the water surface is not bright to lift the rod.
If you go fishing at night, you must try more places such as stone crevices and bridge piers, as it is easier to catch yellow catfish than in the aquatic grass area. As the temperature rises and the aquatic weeds begin to grow wildly, the yellow catfish are less afraid to enter the aquatic weed area because they are easy to get trapped. Moreover, the aquatic grass area is not as high as the dissolved oxygen in the open water at night.
