With the arrival of winter, crucian carp fishing has become the first choice for many fishing enthusiasts. Crucian carp tend to become more active in icy weather, so choosing a good spot is crucial.
Before choosing a fishing position, we need to understand the Xi of crucian carp. Crucian carp is a demersal fish that prefers to move in pelagic waters. In winter, due to cooler temperatures, crucian carp migrate to deeper waters in search of more suitable water temperatures. Therefore, when choosing a fishing spot, we should choose a deep water area.
Below, I'll give you a few tips for choosing a spot for your winter crucian carp fishing to help you get back loaded on the icy river.
1. Choose a deep water area.
In winter, the temperature is lower in the shallow waters, and crucian carp tend to move towards the deeper waters. Therefore, it is wise to choose a deep water area as a fishing spot. In general, areas with a water depth of more than 2 meters are suitable.
2. Select the vicinity of obstacles.
Crucian carp prefer to roost near obstacles because these places provide shelter and food for them. Therefore, choose near obstacles such as aquatic weeds, trees, bridge piers, stones, trees, etc., which will make crucian carp feel safe and therefore easier to gather.
3. Choose an area with abundant aquatic plants.
The abundant aquatic area is a good place for crucian carp to feed and roost. In winter, although the aquatic weeds have withered and yellowed, they can still provide shelter for crucian carp. Therefore, it is also a good choice to choose an area with abundant aquatic plants as a fishing spot.
Fourth, choose the sunny place.
In winter, sunlight can bring a certain amount of warmth. Therefore, it is also a good choice to choose a sunny spot as a fishing position. Generally speaking, the east and south shores are more suitable as fishing spots.
Fifth, choose the old fishing position.
The old fishing spot is a place where people often fish, so there is often a large number of crucian carp gathered. It is also a good choice to choose an old fishing spot as a fishing spot.
Sixth, choose Wanzi.
Wanzi refers to the curved part of the river. In the bay, the current is slower and the food is abundant, and it is a place where crucian carp like to gather.
7. Choose a plough tip.
A ploughshare tip is a protruding part of a river. At the tip of the ploughshare, the water flow is faster and the food is more abundant. Therefore, fishing at the tip of the ploughshare is also a good option.
In conclusion, choosing a good spot is the key to winter crucian carp fishing. By choosing areas such as deep water, near obstacles, areas with abundant aquatic weeds, bays, ploughshares, sunny spots, or old fishing spots, you can increase your catch and enjoy your fishing time. Of course, in addition to the above tips, you also need to pay attention to the selection and use of bait, fishing skills, etc. Hopefully, these tips will help you get the most out of your winter crucian carp fishing!
