Nine out of ten anglers hate small trash fish, I am no exception, especially in the summer water temperature high trash fish activity is more serious, throw two grains of corn down they have to nibble a few times, to add trouble to the fishing, not to say that the key is to seriously affect the mood, simply disgusting. But then again, I don't hate all the miscellaneous fish, such as the creek grouper, which I not only hate but also very welcome them to make a nest, after all, sixty or seventy yuan a pound (some areas sell for more than a hundred). Like to fish for creek grouper, mainly because this fish is more expensive and rare, in terms of appearance it is not too prominent, and today's introduction of this small size fish I think is more distinctive than the creek grouper.
The name of this fish is called "crucian carp", although it has a crucian character, but it is not crucian carp, and crucian carp is not a level in popularity, I believe that ten out of ten anglers know crucian carp, and "crucian carp" can have a name that is already good. I saw this fish when I was very young, and when I didn't know the name, I mistook it for freshwater grouper, and at that time my idea was that all the fish with spots on the body and didn't know were called groupers

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > an introduction to crucian carp</h1>
The scientific name of the Chinese of the crucian carp is called HuaYu, also known as yellow palm fish and mountain carp, which belongs to the order Cyprinidae, carp family, carp genus, is a native fish species in China. This fish is widely distributed, except for some plateau areas, almost all over the major river systems, from large rivers to lakes and ponds have their figures, some anglers are curious: since the distribution is so widespread, why haven't I seen it? I can't answer this question for the time being, but the next time I catch this fish, I can ask.
When I checked the information on the Internet before, I found that some anglers had caught crucian carp, most of them were unknown, and some said that this fish looked like the national second-level protected animal "rouge". The cochineal fish is particularly prominent at the beginning of the dorsal fin on the back, while the crucian carp is only slightly raised on the back of the head, if I have to say where it is, I think it is probably that both fish have black stripes, but if you look closely, the cochineal fish has three black stripes and the crucian carp is four. In terms of body size, the cochineal fish is also much larger than the crucian carp, according to the encyclopedia, the adult cochineal body length can reach up to 1 meter, the maximum weight is 30 kg, and the largest individual of the crucian carp is only 20 cm, this gap is a bit large.
This is the cochineal
Or back to the crucian carp, this fish juvenile fish is more obvious than the adult fish markings, to the reproductive period body color and each fin becomes thick black, the male fish snout has a white bead star, larger particles. The picture above is probably during the reproductive period, who let him eat my bait, but fortunately, I put it back later (mainly only one fished, not even enough to plug the gap between the teeth to go to what use).
This is the Chinese salmon, also known as the crucian carp
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >what kind of place does crucian carp like to stay? </h1>
As mentioned earlier, this fish is widely distributed, can be seen in rivers and lakes, mainly inhabits the tributaries of mountains and streams and other river sections, living in the middle and lower water bodies with slow water flow. I checked the information, the Internet said that this fish does not have too many requirements for water quality, but every time I catch it is in a place with clear water quality, like before I stayed in Hangzhou for five or six years, the big and small rivers there have never seen the figure of this fish, go to the river and reservoir in Huzhou Deqing several times and have not been caught, or it is too bad luck.
The water quality in my hometown is OK, there is no large factory, there is no particularly serious sewage discharge, at most a little domestic garbage, so this fish is still relatively large, but because of the electric fish, the number has declined in these years (the number of other fish has also decreased). Combined with my own fishing experience, I found that this fish likes to stay in the rocky area with slight flowing water, or on the edge of aquatic grass, active in the heat, the probability of catching in summer and autumn is very high, some people say that this fish likes to swim in groups, but I have not caught many at once. My guess is related to the size of the individual, the number of individuals is large, the few sizes I caught are OK, may like to eat alone.
Rocky areas, places with aquatic plants, they all love to go
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > how to fish for crucian carp, what is the emphasis on fishing rods, line pack configurations and bait selection? </h1>
As already introduced, this fish is very small and the largest is 20 cm, and the mouth is very small, so if you really want to fish it, it is recommended to use a fishing rod below 4.5, the line group 0.8 + 0.4 or even smaller, the fish hook is preferably a stream hook or a sleeve hook. I generally don't take the initiative to fish for it, so the fishing hook is selected in the No. 3 arm hook or the No. 4 arm hook, and the No. 1 hook is enough for special fishing. Floating drift is naturally also the smaller the better, the fishing rod is short do not have to worry about throwing inaccurately, floating with less than 1 gram of lead is enough, adjust the fishing should be lowered or lower the fishing height, try to let the hook bait stick to the bottom, convenient for fish to eat. This kind of fish does not need to catch particularly deep water, generally about two or three meters on the line, if you can't catch it, it is estimated that there is no or very little in the water.
In terms of bait, it is recommended to be fishy, and the crucian carp is an omnivorous fish species, eating benthic invertebrates, crustaceans, algae, and plant detritus. As I said earlier, they are often seen in the rocky area of the slightly flowing water, because the running water will rush down some food to stay in the stone crevice, and then they will go to the diamond seam to find food when they are hungry, and it turns out that they are looking for food all day long, and maybe finding food is also one of their pleasures. I am all with the commodity bait to catch the crucian carp, and basically with fishy or fishy, sure enough small fish are more interested in fishy, specialized in fishing this fish is recommended to use delicate, light proportion and a certain atomization of the bait, summer miscellaneous fish nest serious do not want to use too fishy, you can try the algae element, this bait is also a classic product, spring and summer fishing crucian carp I often use, can also be.
Small hooks and thin lines of small bait, fishing small fish fishing sets and bait are very exquisite
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the ornamental value of crucian carp is much higher than the edible value</h1>
This only represents my personal opinion, I see that there are anglers on the Internet who say that this fish is very expensive, selling to more than 100 yuan or even 1,000 yuan? There may be places that are relatively rare, things are rare and expensive, in fact, the price of many things are fried in this way, this fish is not delicious, don't look at the messy introduction on the Internet, which kind of fish on the Internet is "delicious meat, rich in nutrition", and even introduces fish such as engineering crucian carp are said to be delicious meat, it is really speechless. I think that the crucian carp you want to eat is not as good as raising for ornamental purposes, and then put a few salmon, wide-finned carp, stupid fish, it is also very good-looking, the cost is still low.
In the past, our side of the river where you can catch the crucian carp, although not much fishing, but from time to time can encounter a few, but in recent years a lot less, some people say that the water quality has deteriorated, but I believe that it is caused by electric fish, such as yellowtail catfish, earth catfish, creek grouper, the number of thorns have declined, the previous year I also caught red-eyed rainbow trout in the river, this year do not say that the catch, not the air force is already lucky. Here also hope that you fishing friends cherish the appropriate release of fish resources, while caring for environmental protection of water resources, if you see the electrician please report in time.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > and finally briefly introduce a fish of the same family as the crucian carp, that is, the small</h1> carp
I've caught this fish, but I've only caught it once or twice, and I didn't know what its name was before, and I didn't get an accurate answer when I posted it online. This time in the preparation of the article of the chinese carp (crucian carp) to check a lot of information, accidentally saw the blackfin carp, small carp and other words, in order not to make the wrong object, so I also checked the blackfin carp, small carp and other fish species, did not expect that this is called "small carp", is the fish I have always wanted to know the name of ~ as shown below
The small mackerel was caught in the wild river two or three years ago
This fish, also known as lotus leaf fish and red-faced fish, is smaller than the chinese carp, and is generally an adult fish with a body length of 5 cm. The body color of the small fish is yellow and black, the most distinctive is that there is a black stripe on the side of the body, from the head to the tail, the fins are pale yellow, orange, and there are small black spots on the fins. The reason why the small fish and the chinese carp are put together is not only because they belong to the same family, but also because the two fish are very similar in terms of living environment and diet. I don't know if you have ever caught these two lively and gluttonous fish? If so, share your fishing experience with everyone.
