Pomfret fishing is a highly skillful fishing activity that requires a certain amount of skill and experience. When it comes to drift fishing, mastering the right methods and techniques is crucial to a successful pomfret catch.
First of all, we need to understand the habits and characteristics of pomfret. Pomfret is a pelagic fish that prefers to move in deeper waters, usually swimming in the water column at a distance of 10-50 meters from the surface. Therefore, we need to choose the right float and rig according to the fishing location and the active water layer of the pomfret.
In terms of drifting, we need to adjust it according to the bite characteristics of the pomfret. Since the pomfret has a small mouth and has less force when biting, the float needs to be adjusted to be more sensitive in order to catch the fish's bite in time. Specifically, we can choose to use smaller floats and adjust the balance of the rig so that the bait can be suspended in the water and wait for the pomfret to come and feed.
In the selection of fishing rig, we need to pay attention to choosing the right main line and hook. Due to the greater activity of pomfret, we need to choose a thicker main line to ensure the stability of the ** group. When it comes to hooks, you need to choose a smaller and sharp hook for better penetration into the fish's mouth. In addition, in order to better attract pomfret, we can add some colored or fluorescent accessories to the fishing rig, or use special attractants to increase the attractiveness of the bait.
In terms of fishing methods, we need to adjust according to the activity rules and habits of pomfret. In general, pomfret prefer to be active in low-light water, so we can choose to fish on cloudy days or in the morning and at dusk when the light is softer. When casting the rod, the bait needs to be thrown into a relatively open body of water to attract the attention of the pomfret. While waiting for the bite, we need to be quiet so as not to disturb the fish.
In addition to the above aspects, we also need to pay attention to some details. For example, when choosing a fishing spot, you need to choose a flatter spot with fewer obstacles to better observe the float and rig. When casting the rod, use even force to avoid the bait scattering. When lifting the rod, it is necessary to grasp the strength and timing to avoid unhooking or disturbing the fish due to excessive force or premature lifting.
In conclusion, pomfret fishing requires a certain amount of skill and experience. In terms of drift fishing, we need to adjust and choose the appropriate fishing rig and fishing method according to the habits and characteristics of pomfret. Through continuous practice and learning, we can better master the skills of pomfret fishing and improve the success rate of fishing.
