Zywiec takes one of the most honorable places in the bait arsenal of experienced anglers. Fishing with live bait is often much more effective than with artificial bait. Depending on what kind of tackle, in what way and in what conditions fishing is carried out, it is worth putting on live bait in a certain way.
It is necessary
- - live bait;
- - fishing rod;
- - hooks (single and double);
- - steel leash;
- - a carabiner for attaching hooks to a leash.
Instructions
Step 1
Put on the live bait by hooking it with the hook on the lower lip. This is the fastest, easiest, but also the most unreliable way of attaching the bait. Its advantage is that the live bait is not seriously injured during insertion and casting, so it remains active for a long time. The disadvantage of this method is that the fry often get off the hook. In a similar way, live bait is planted when fishing in reservoirs without a current on a float rod, when casts need to be made quite often.
Step 2
Fasten the live bait by hooking it under the upper fin. This is the most common way of attaching live bait when fishing with float and bottom rods in bodies of water without flow. Live bait, put on in this way, sits quite firmly on the hook (which, by the way, can be double or triple). However, with careless insertion or casting, the spine of the fish can be damaged, and it will quickly die.
Step 3
Use the combined method of putting live bait on the lip and upper fin. Thread the single hook all the way through the bottom lip of the fry, pull out the line, and thread the hook under the top fin. This method of fastening is more reliable than the previous one, but it is very traumatic - live bait can quickly die.
Step 4
Pass the line through the mouth and gills of the bait fish, then hook it under the top fin. This method is similar to the one described in the third step, however, it injures the live bait less, although it is more difficult to execute.
Step 5
Pass the hook and line through the mouth and gills of the live bait, and then hook the hook under the rear lower fin or around the tail. This method is used when attaching a bait for its subsequent posting with a spinning rod.
Step 6
Attach a thin steel lead to the line. Gently slide it under the gill cover of the fry and expel it through the mouth. Attach a double hook to the end of the leash using a small carabiner. Pull the leash back so that the shank of the hook is in the fish's mouth and the ends remain outside. With the right hook, this method of attaching the bait is one of the most reliable. In addition, it practically does not injure the live bait, which allows it to remain active for a long time.
