Spring fishing for crucian carp begins from mid-April to early May, depending on the geographical location of the area. As the water warms up, first small, and then large specimens appear, waking up after hibernation. The presence of crucian carp is signaled by chains of bubbles rising to the surface of the reservoir. Spring is considered the best season for this fish.
It is necessary
- - float plug, fly or feeder rod 6 m long;
- - landing net;
- - nozzle (worm, maggot, bloodworm, bread, dough, porridge).
Instructions
Step 1
Before you catch crucian carp in the spring, decide on a fishing spot and choose the best one. At this time, crucian carp is actively looking for food and "grazes" in shallow water and among last year's vegetation in search of animal food. Explore shallow areas, about 1 meter deep, next to thickets of reeds or cattails. In these places, crucians await the release of dragonfly larvae, which were laid down last summer.
Step 2
The places where they leave the bays are ideal for catching crucian carp. Large crucian carp loves places near flooded trees and snags, which lie in the middle of the bay in shallow water. Try to catch him in such a place in the morning or evening hours. Summer tactics with bait in the spring does not work - crucian carp almost does not react to it.
Step 3
In spring, to catch crucian carp, use long, up to 6 m, float plug rods, light rigs, since you will have to catch near coastal bushes and vegetation. With a plug-in rod, you can operate quietly and accurately place the lure in the desired location. After the crucian carp bites, such a rod will make it easy to handle it, since it is equipped with shock absorbers. Plus, when changing locations, you can easily lengthen or shorten the rod without changing your rig.
Step 4
Use strong fishing line with a diameter of 0, 14-0, 16 mm to catch crucian carp. Since fishing will take place in shallow water, there is no point in using a leash so that the knot does not cling. Choose a hook size 10, and the bait is a worm, bloodworm, or maggot. Just in case, take with you an attachment of both animal and vegetable origin: dough, porridge, bread.
Step 5
Carp must be fished out carefully, because, caught on a hook, it behaves very actively. Let him get tired and do not rush, limit his movement to force the play. After the next jerk of the crucian carp, slightly pull the rod towards you. When the fish is on the surface, carefully slide it into the landing net.
