In winter fishing, the choice of bait is crucial, as the fish are less active and their appetite is reduced. Here are some suggested baits that may work well when fishing in winter.
Fishy, fragrant bait: Due to the low water temperature in winter, the density of the water increases, which is not good for the diffusion of bait. Therefore, the use of fishy, fragrant bait can increase the taste stimulation of the fish and increase their desire to eat.
Live bait: The desire of fish to feed will be reduced in winter, and the use of live bait such as bloodworms, small red earthworms, Antarctic shrimp, etc., can stimulate the fish's desire to attack. At the same time, when using the bait, you can gently drag the line set at intervals of a few seconds to make the hook bait move, so as to ** the fish.
Bait (nest material): When fishing in winter, the choice of bait is also crucial. You can choose to use flavored bait, such as "medicinal rice", wheat bran, broken rice, corn residue, rapeseed cake, brewer's grains, etc., and add a small amount of food flavor, koji wine, sugar, etc. to improve the effect.
Animal powder bait: According to the long-term bait habits of fishing waters, you can choose to use animal powder bait, such as bloodworm meal, shrimp meal, fish meal, etc.
Fishy bait: When using pasta bait, you can choose fishy bait. Try to reduce the dough as much as possible on the premise of wrapping the hook to make it easier for the fish to eat the bait.
Additives: In order to enhance the effect of bait, some bait odor additives can be added, such as fishy odor additives (bloodworm powder, shrimp meal, fish meal, etc.), flavor additives (koji wine, cloves, woody fragrance, angelica, fine spice, etc.) and sweet additives (honey, cyclamate, brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar, etc.).
In general, the bait for winter fishing should be mainly fishy, supplemented by fragrant and sweet taste, and pay attention to the freshness and dynamics of the bait. In addition, according to the characteristics of different waters and fish species, the reasonable selection of bait and the use of additives are also the key to improving the effectiveness of winter fishing
