Winter fishing, do you often encounter such a situation: all day long, the rod has not moved, not even a small trash fish, can only stare dryly, the Air Force home?Don't be discouraged, winter fishing isn't that hard, as long as you master a few tricks, you can catch a hot crucian carp in the icy water. Today, I will share with you the three "quasi" words of winter fishing, so that you can easily fish and no longer in the Air Force.
What are the three "quasi" words?It is to find the fish accurately, the rod to be accurate, and the line group to choose the bait. These three "quasi" words are the basic principles of winter fishing, and they are also the key factors that determine the success or failure of your fishing. Why?Because the activity pattern of winter fish is different from that of summer, the activity of winter fish is reduced, and they are reluctant to swim around, but gather in some specific waters, such as deep water areas, heavy obstacle areas, and flowing water edges. These waters, for fish, are good for maintaining body temperature, avoiding drought, hiding from predators, etc. So, if you want to catch a fish, you have to find the location of the fish, otherwise, you are wasting your efforts and hitting a nest in a no-man's land.
It's not enough to find the location of the fish, you also have to send the bait to the fish's mouth so that the fish can eat it. This requires you to cast the rod accurately and not deviate from the target, otherwise, you are wasting bait and hitting a nest without fish. In winter, fish have a small feeding range, and they do not take a bite and run away, as they do in summer, but eat slowly in their nests until they are full or disturbed. Therefore, your bait must be able to land accurately in the nest to increase the probability of catching a fish.
It's not enough to send it to the fish's mouth, you also have to make the fish eat and bite. This requires you to choose the bait of the line set accurately, not too thick and too big, otherwise, you are scaring away the fish and hitting the nest without a mouth. In winter, when the mouth size of the fish becomes smaller, they will not open their mouths wide to swallow a large piece of bait as in summer, but will gently try it with their cherry mouths, eat when they can, and spit out if they can't. Therefore, your line set should be thin, the hook should be small, the strand line should be short, the nest material should be fine, and the bait should be small, so that the fish can suck in, bite the hook, and not block the mouth.
The above are the three "quasi" words of winter fishing, looking for fish to be accurate, casting rods to be accurate, line group bait to choose accurate. As long as you do these three things, you will be able to catch crucian carp in the winter, and you will no longer be in the air force. Of course, these are the basic principles, specific operations, but also according to your actual situation, flexible, and constantly summarize experience, in order to better improve your fishing skills. Below, I will give you a few examples to let you understand the meaning and function of these three "quasi" words more clearly.
Example 1: Find fish accurately.
I have a fishing friend who is a master fisherman, and he never fishes in winter, and he catches a lot of crucian carp every time. I was curious about his secrets, so I went fishing with him. When he arrived at the river, he first took out a small iron hook, hung a grain of rice, and then put the hook into the water and shook it gently to see if there were any fish biting the hook. He said that this is his way of finding fish, if there is a fish bite, it means that there are fish here, and you can make a nest for fishing, if there is no fish bite, it means that there are no fish here, and you have to change places. He tried several places like this, and finally in a deep water area, as soon as the hook was lowered, a fish bit the hook, and he determined that this was the location of the fish, and began to make a nest for fishing. Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to catch a crucian carp, then a second, a third...I was greedy and wanted to try his method, so I took a small iron hook, hung a grain of rice, put it in the water, and shook it for a long time, but I didn't see any fish bite the hook. I asked him if I was unlucky, and he laughed and said, "Look at your hook in the **?".When I looked, it turned out that my hook was placed in a shallow area, and the water was only half a foot deep, and there were no fish at all. He said that in winter the fish are in deep water, and you have to put the hook in the deep water to find the fish. I listened to him, put the hook in the deep water, and sure enough, soon a fish bite. I happily set up a nest and started fishing, but I didn't expect that I would catch a lot of crucian carp all day. I said with emotion, it turns out that it is so important to find fish accurately.
Example 2: Cast the rod accurately.
I have a fishing buddy who is a novice fisherman, and winter fishing is always air force and he can't catch a fish every time. I wanted to help him, so I went fishing with him. When I got to the river, I found a deep water area, made a nest, threw the bait into the nest, and started fishing. It didn't take long for me to catch a crucian carp, then a second, a third...He was very envious and wanted to try my nest too, so he took a bait, threw it out, and began fishing. However, all day he did not move his rod and did not catch a single fish. He was very frustrated and asked me if his nest material was not good, and I said, it was not the nest material, but your inaccurate casting. He didn't believe it, and said that his bait was also thrown into the nest, so why couldn't he catch fish?I said, look at your bait landingWhen he looked, it turned out that his bait had landed on the edge of the nest, not in the middle of the nest, so he could not catch fish.

Example 3: The line group nest bait should be selected accurately.
I have a fishing buddy who is a fishing enthusiast and always can't catch big fish in winter, and he can only catch a few small crucian carp every time. He was not satisfied, so he went fishing with me. When I got to the river, I first chose a heavy obstacle area, made a nest, and then hung a small earthworm with a thin hook and a short line, exposed the tip of the hook, threw the bait into the nest, and began to fish. It didn't take long for me to catch a big crucian carp, then a second, a third...He was surprised and wanted to try my nest too, so he took a bait, threw it out, and started fishing. However, at the end of the day, he caught only a few small crucian carp and not a single big fish. He was very strange and asked me if it was his bad luck, and I said, it was not a matter of luck, it was that your line set was not suitable. He didn't understand, and said, his line set of bait is the same as mine, why can't he catch a big fish?I said, look at your line set bait. When he looked at it, it turned out that his line set was very thick, the hook was large, the strand was very long, the nest material was very thick, and the bait was very large. He said, "Isn't that good?".I said, this is too obvious for the big fish, and they will feel that it is dangerous and dare not eat it. Moreover, if your bait is too big for the fish to eat and bite, it will be difficult for you to catch a fish. You have to use a thin line to hook a short line, the nest material should be fine, and the bait should be small, so that the big fish can eat it, bite it, and not block the mouth. He listened to me, changed the line to the bait, and sure enough, he soon caught a large crucian carp, then a second, a third...He said happily that it was so important to choose the bait of the line group.
The above are the three "quasi" words I share with you for winter fishing, to find fish accurately, to cast rods accurately, and to choose line group bait. I hope it will be helpful for everyone, so that you can catch a lot of crucian carp in winter fishing. Of course, these are my personal experience, not necessarily suitable for all waters and fish species, we also have to adjust flexibly according to their actual situation, and continue to learn in order to better improve their fishing level.
