Introduction to Black Snapper
Snapper is a valuable fish species, scientific name snapper; local name; sea bream, black li, gagi fish, (the northern year of raw small fish called sea bream, adult called gagi fish, and also divided into black scale gagi fish, and red scale gagi fish. There are also places called sea crucian carp (but sea crucian carp and sea crucian carp, really not a fish, sea crucian carp is small, is another species of marine fish. Today I will briefly introduce the black snapper, which does look like freshwater crucian carp, its body shape, the color of its scales, etc. This may be the origin of the name of the sea crucian carp. Black snapper individuals generally grow to 50 cm and weigh up to 8 pounds in 15 cm to 40 cm individually, which refers to the (black snapper) northern red gagi fish, that is, true snapper, real seabream individuals are larger than black seabream, up to 60 cm larger, weighing up to 15 kg or more.

habit
Let's analyze the bumpy life of snapper, snapper is a perennial fish, the specific long life does not know, (please also know friends to share to the comment area, if you want) snapper fry live in the shallow sea, this period of sea bream in the north called sea bream, until the winter to swim into the deep water area for winter, or even long distance migration, or farther, and then no longer come back, swim around. It is not until the sea bream is 4 years old, when they fall in love from April to May in the spring, that they return to their birthplace, and after spawning, they return to the deep sea. These adult seabreams come to the beach every spring to breed.

Black snapper is mostly male in juvenile life until the age of 3 or 4. If there are no females in a school of fish, at some point a part of the snapper will become females, which is not very interesting, nature is amazing.
Here to say more, most of the Bohai seabream, will go to the Yellow Sea, [this is a personal analysis, uncertain] so guessed, because in Weihai, Rushan, and other places, the right season, often can catch more than 1 to 2 pounds of seabream, this is two or three years of fish, but in the Bohai Sea it is difficult to catch 1 pound to 2 and a half pounds of black seabream, which may prove something.
Next, we are analyzing the living habits of sea bream, which eat omnivorous fish, eating both plant "algae" and carnivorous food in the sea, but more meat-eating. The main food of northern snapper is sand silkworms, small fish, small shrimp, small crabs and so on. As long as it can become its prey, all small marine animals are in its diet. When they grow up, the snapper is even more rampant, with four front teeth that can compete with the teeth of a small teddy dog, and the bite force is huge. In addition to fish, shrimp and crabs, sea oysters have also become its food, adult black seabream is very fierce, but also comes with a suit of armor, often fishing for black seabream, basically have been pierced, so it is said that sea bream in the sea basically no natural enemies.
To say more; northern snapper and southern snapper have different recipes, and due to the different aquatic communities of the northern and southern regions, seabream develop different habits from the juvenile stage.
Analyze the living environment of snapper; snapper generally live in reef areas, breeding rows, oyster rows, etc., where there are many obstacles, so that they may be considered safe. Only in the spring will they venture to shoals, beaches, the confluence of the HaiHe River, the Gulf Stream, etc., where the water flow is gentle to spawn. Usually, there are few large snappers landing, and even if there are some dangerous reefs, the water depth is more than 5 meters in the remote sea, and the underwater terrain is complex, so that it is possible for the sea bream to live there with confidence. So in a sense, fishing for black seabream on weekdays is a dangerous thing. Fishing spots are dangerous. Anglers pay more attention to non-slip and must wear life jackets. Pilotage tips
Due to the cleverness of snapper, fishing boats rarely specialize in catching snapper, generally catching other species of fish, and catching snapper by the way. The large number of snapper caught is good luck.
Choose a fishing spot
Fishing for snapper, if there is a boat with conditions, choose to fish in the breeding row, reef area, shore in the reef area, and pay attention to safety in rock fishing. Conditions in the handicap are optional on artificial islands, windproof slopes. Today we focus on the analysis of the spring shore fishing for black seabream. Spring is mentioned here, and the black snapper swims to shallow waters, with slow-flowing shoals at a depth of 2 to 5 meters along the coast. It can be seen on the edge of the reef, the windproof slope, and even the sandy beach with a depth of more than 2 meters. Choose the best fishing spot for the reef, after the artificial island, and finally the windproof slope, or the beach is far away but the chance is smaller.
Line groups
Boat fishing varies according to personal preference, water depth, and fishing group. Today we focus on spring shore fishing for black seabream. Personally, I usually choose artificial islands or reefs, rock fishing methods, or windproof slopes far into the beach to fish for sinking bottoms, with floating hooks fishing groups.

bait
Snapper is not picky about the bait in the north, generally use sand silkworms, or Lugu shrimp, (I think Lugu shrimp is the best to use, personal combat experience), shrimp meat, of course, with chicken intestines, etc., the south generally uses Antarctic shrimp, or secret shrimp meat, fish pieces, hanging soft shell crabs, etc. can be caught. Small summary; sand silkworms and Lugu shrimp are common in the north, and I prefer Lugu shrimp. Antarctic shrimp are used more in the south, followed by shrimp meat. Every place has its own style. Adapt to local fish recipes, which is why the bait is different for north-south snapper fishing.

Timing of fishing
The timing of fishing for sea bream is very important, the northern spring fishing for sea bream, Shandong Bohai Bay waters are generally at the end of April and May out of this time, is the spring black snapper annual landing period, after this period, they all swim back to deep water. Then we analyze the date of the sea bream, and then there is, in this short period of less than a month, those few days are the most suitable, that depends on the weather conditions, wind direction, tide, water color. It should be analyzed according to the location of each sea area. In the analysis of what time of day fishing is more appropriate, personal experience, at 3:30 in the morning the tide rises 3 minutes, noon are considered no fish, but at 12:30 noon, there was a tail of more than 5 pounds of black seabream harvested at half tide. At dusk, the sunset is half tide, until the high tide has the most chances, the night is quiet, and the fish are easy to dock. I have caught snapper in these periods of time and shared it with you.

summary
Spring rock fishing for black seabream is a special period, is the seabream love period, but also the northern sea angler, once a year can see, large size sea bream opportunities. Anglers don't want to catch spawning fish, and they want to catch rare, rare northern black snapper. Feel its cow-like strength. What to do about this. Pilotage suggests that it is best to catch a big belly and release it, so that there is no psychological discomfort in autumn fishing for sea bream, because you put a big black seabream, there are more, tens of thousands of small sea rich, you fish hundreds of fish will be at ease and the small sea carp has no gender.
We are the most ordinary sea anglers on the earth, not engaged in biological research, entertainment, talk too much, comments are difficult to listen to
Don't forget to pay attention, these are all in real combat. It's the northern black snapper season, and I hope you like it. Hope the master message adds
Catch a big snapper, don't forget to come back and celebrate. It's best to take a picture
