CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to make bait for silver carp?

Hand rod explosive hook floating fishing silver carp

1. Fishing gear preparation

1. Fishing rod: Choose a hard-tuned hand rod with a hard rod body, thick rod tip and a length of more than 4.5 meters.

2. Fishing line: It is recommended to use high-quality strong fishing line with a diameter of 0.3-0.4 mm.

3. Fishhook: Ise curved explosive hook with spring, size 11 or above.

4. Float: Choose a large float with a thick tail of No. 5 or above; if there is no large float, you can also put a small piece of plastic foam on the float foot of the thick tail float to increase the buoyancy, which does not affect the fishing effect.

5. Connection of the fishing group: The main line is as long as the rod, and two space beans are passed through the line to fix the float seat. A connecting ring is tied at the connection between the main line and the hook group. No lead sinker is needed, and the connecting ring is directly connected to the hook group.

2. Fishing Position

Silver carp and bighead carp like warmth, feed on plankton, and have poor tolerance to hypoxia. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a fishing spot with lush algae, dense plankton, sufficient oxygen, and a water depth of 3 meters. Fishing spots where people often fish are also good fishing spots because they often attract groups of sea bass.

3. Climate

The best time for floating fishing is from mid-May to mid-September, and July to August is the golden season. Silver carp and bighead carp feed most vigorously when the temperature is 25-30℃, and the feeding peak is from 8 am to 4 pm during the day; especially sunny weather, high air pressure, sufficient sunlight and high temperature are more suitable for floating fishing.

4. Bait

L Bait: Silver carp likes sour, fragrant and sweet food. Shrimps like sweet, sour, smelly and pungent food. Therefore, the bait should be made according to the target fish. Pay special attention to the prepared bait. It should not be too milky. The bait should be able to be powdered and scattered continuously after being added to the water. It is best to be scattered in 10 to 20 minutes.

2. Bait: Use 4 parts bran and 1 part cornmeal, mix with boiling water, add yeast, seal with plastic bag and place on the balcony for 4-5 days. When fishing, add some auxiliary materials according to the target fish, such as vinegar, stinky bean curd, expired milk, Chinese medicine asafoetida liquid, chain fish essence, etc., according to the target fish. After reaching the fishing position, take more bait and throw it to the fishing spot. In the whole fishing process, you should throw it once every period of time.

5. Fishing skills

1. Baiting: Take a bait as big as a date and pinch it on the spring, and let the 6 hooks scatter freely around it.

2. Adjust the float: After putting the bait on, adjust the float to the same size as the bait, so that the tail of the float is exposed by 2 to 3 meshes. If too many meshes are exposed, the bait ball on the bait will be

Increase it appropriately; otherwise, reduce the bait ball or increase the buoyancy of the float.

3. Fishing water layer: should be determined according to the season, climate and fish layer. (1) Generally, the temperature continues to rise from May to June, and the fishing depth should be gradually reduced from about 2 meters to 50-60 centimeters. In July and August, the temperature is high, and silver carp and bighead carp generally move in the upper layer, so the fishing depth should be 30-50 centimeters. In September, the fishing depth should be gradually deepened. (2) The influence of weather. When the weather is clear, the air pressure is high, and the temperature is high, you should fish shallow; when the temperature is low in the morning and evening, you should fish slightly deeper. (3) During fishing, you should follow the weather.

Adjust the depth constantly according to the changes in the fish layer. You cannot fish at one depth and must be flexible.

4. Watching the float: When fishing with explosive hooks, it is relatively simple to watch the float. In most cases, the float is black or drifting, and the fish often eats the dead hook. Therefore, during fishing, you should not lift the rod too early, and you should lift the rod when you see obvious floating signs.

5. What to do after catching the fish: After catching the fish, you should quickly pull it away from the fishing spot to avoid scaring away other fish. 1 Smaller fish can be directly dragged ashore, while larger fish should be caught after they are exhausted.

6. When fishing for silver carp and bighead carp with a hand rod, the key is to form a fish nest. Therefore, two or three people casting rods to the same fishing spot together can not only attract fish quickly, but also keep the fish school together for a long time. To fish for silver carp and bighead carp, you must first understand and be familiar with their physiological characteristics and habits. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, you can then choose a good fishing spot, prepare bait that silver carp and bighead carp like, choose fishing gear and fishing group suitable for fishing silver carp and bighead carp, and master various effective fishing methods for fishing silver carp and bighead carp, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

1. What are the habits and characteristics of silver carp and bighead carp? (Only those related to fishing)

Silver carp and bighead carp are collectively called "silver carp and bighead carp". Silver carp (also called jumping silver carp, silver carp) and bighead carp (also called flower carp, fat head, big head) are both silver carp, but their physiological habits have both commonalities and individual differences. Silver carp and bighead carp are phagocytic fish. They like to cluster in the middle and upper layers of deep waters. They have the habit of migrating in rivers and lakes. They usually live in larger natural waters such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. The suitable water temperature is 18-30 degrees. They dive into deep water to hibernate in winter. This is their commonality. The difference is: silver carp is more impatient and easily frightened and jumps, while bighead carp is gentler and slow in action. Although both are filter feeders, silver carp mainly feeds on plant algae in the water, while bighead carp has a different diet. It mainly feeds on zooplankton in the water, such as rotifers, cladocerans, and copepods, and also feeds on a variety of plankton algae. Silver carp and bighead carp have similar preferences for the smell of vegetarian food, but there are also differences. Many anglers know that silver carp and bighead carp like sour and smelly baits, but to be more specific, silver carp prefers a mixed smell of sour, sweet, and smelly, while bighead carp prefers a mixed smell of fishy, ​​fragrant, and smelly. Their commonality is that they like smelly things, but their differences are that silver carp likes sour and sweet, and bighead carp likes fishy and fragrant.

2. The hotter the weather, the better for fishing silver carp; the hotter the weather, the better for fishing bighead carp

The suitable water temperature for silver carp and bighead carp is relatively high, so silver carp and bighead carp are mainly caught in late spring, summer and early autumn. Even in the hot summer and early autumn, you should choose sunny weather to fish during the day to get better results. From 10 am to 6 pm is the best time to fish silver carp and bighead carp. Some anglers also like to fish silver carp and bighead carp at night. Although silver carp and bighead carp can be caught at night in midsummer, the effect is far different from that during the day. In addition to choosing sunny weather, you should also pay attention to wind direction and wind force when fishing silver carp and bighead carp. Generally speaking, you should choose a breeze below level 3 or a southerly wind. Such weather is generally higher in temperature. If it is a northerly wind above level 3, it is mostly cooler and cooler weather. This kind of cooling weather is more suitable for fishing crucian carp, carp, grass carp, etc., but not for fishing silver carp and bighead carp. When the wind is too strong, the surface of the water in open natural waters will be wavy, which is not only not conducive to observing the tiny movements of the float, but also difficult for the plankton and algae in the water to accumulate in the upper layer of the water, which is not conducive to the feeding of silver carp and bighead carp. Therefore, silver carp and bighead carp disappear in such weather and are difficult to catch. Even if you make a nest when fishing, it is difficult for the nest bait to form a fixed nest area in the middle and upper layers of the water.

3. Check the weather and wind direction, and choose a location based on the terrain

Choosing an ideal fishing spot is a crucial part of the fishing process. When choosing a fishing spot for silver carp and bighead carp, you must first observe the wind direction. You should choose a fishing spot with the wind or the wind, and try to avoid a fishing spot against the wind. According to the terrain of the waterside, you should choose a leeward place or a backwind bay where algae accumulate on the water surface; you should choose the junction of the wind-blown waves on the water surface and the calm water surface; you should choose a deep water place with a steep bank. If you are in a lake or reservoir with cage fish, you should choose a leeward place near the cage, or near the domestic sewage discharge inlet, which are all good fishing spots for silver carp and bighead carp.

4. Fishing gear and fishing methods should be used flexibly

Hand rod fishing and casting rod fishing are both good ways to fish for silver carp and bighead carp. But if you want to fish for big silver carp and bighead carp, you must use a casting rod. Hand rod fishing for silver carp and bighead carp can be bottom fishing, fishing away from the bottom, fishing in the middle of the water, and fishing floating. Bottom fishing is generally only used in spring and autumn when the temperature is low. In summer, the latter three fishing methods are mostly used, and floating fishing is the most common method. The use of fishing groups varies from person to person, and each has its own advantages. Some people use double hook fishing groups, some use single hooks, and some use three or more hooks. Using double hooks to float floating fishing is the most common hand rod fishing method. I also use double hook fishing groups when I use hand rods to fish for silver carp and bighead carp, but it is slightly different from the double hook fishing groups I usually use when fishing for other fish. The modification method is: shorten the length of the double hook brain line to 8 cm for the upper hook and 12 cm for the lower hook, add a small bait spring with the thickness of a chopstick head and a length of 1.5 cm to the ring connecting the double hooks, and then put a small white foam particle the size of a mung bean on each hook. When fishing, rub the bait on the bait spring, and after entering the water, the bait is atomized and scattered. When silver carp and bighead carp suck the scattered bait, the foam particles on the hook increase the water resistance and are easily sucked into the mouth with the water flow. And because the hook tip is exposed, the fish is powerless when it wants to spit it out. Most of the floating is black, and the fish is caught when the rod is lifted. The rod should be lifted in time when there are floating phases such as pause, large floating, continuous inching, and horizontal movement.

There are two fishing rigs for casting fishing: "water monster" (hanging basket) and bomb hook. The advantage of using "water monster" is that it is easy to load bait, easy to operate and relatively easy to master. The disadvantage is that the fish catching rate is low, especially in waters where people often use "water monster" to float and fish for silver carp and bighead carp. The advantage of using bomb hook fishing rig is that the bait is well atomized and the fish catching rate is high, but the disadvantage is that the bait loading technique is strong, the softness and viscosity of the bait are required to be high, it is difficult to master, and a certain amount of bait use experience is required. When I use casting fishing, I usually use a modified bomb hook as the fishing rig. The modification method is very simple: move the bait support spring on the original bomb hook upward by about two centimeters, and then fix it, so that the relative position of the bait spring and the hook is slightly changed, so that after the bait is loaded on the bait spring, the hook can hang down below the bait ball, thereby increasing the fish catching rate. When fishing for silver carp and bighead carp with a casting rod and float, it is best to use a No. 4 gyro-type short-tail vertical float. After throwing it into the water, as long as there is bait on the hook, the float will stand upright or tilted in the water. If there is no bait on the hook, the float will lie flat on the water surface, which is convenient for observation and timely bait change. Its performance is much better than that of a ball-type float.

5. Using live bait will definitely yield results

There are many good baits for fishing silver carp and bighead carp, such as: Longwanghen's silver carp and bighead carp bait (I prefer Longwanghen's bait), Fishing King's Crazy Silver Carp and Bighead Carp, Laogui's Silver Carp and Bighead Carp bait are all good baits. Why do some people use them easily, while others use them poorly? The key lies in whether the method of use is appropriate and whether the details of use are done well. When I use a hand rod to fish for silver carp and bighead carp, the method of using the bait is: first take a bag of silver carp and bighead carp bait, add a small amount of white sugar and stinky tofu, then add water and stir it into a porridge state, and then use a basin to pour it into the water at the fishing point. This method of making a nest can attract fish quickly. After making a nest, take another bag of bait, add a small amount of white sugar, stinky tofu, and white powder, stir evenly, and then add water to quickly stir it into a very soft bait ball. Do not stir for too long or too hard, otherwise the bait will stick to the hook and not be atomized. When fishing for silver carp and bighead carp with a hand pole, the bait should be atomized and scattered within 5-10 minutes to increase the fish catching rate. If you use a casting pole to fish for silver carp and bighead carp, the bait should be as soft and loose as possible when using a water monster to facilitate atomization and continuous overflow from the hanging basket; when using a bomb hook, after loading the bait on the bait spring, stick the hook evenly around the bait ball, do not press too deep, just stick it lightly, so that the hooks will not be entangled with each other during casting or the hooks will turn back and rest on the main line. After the bait ball enters the water, the hook can quickly fall off the bait ball and hang down below the bait ball. The stickiness and looseness of the bait ball should be such that it can be completely scattered after about 30 minutes of entering the water (it should not be too sticky, otherwise it will form a ball and fall off the hook as a whole).

Fishing tackle should be a 4.5m or 3.6m 37-tone rod, because silver carp will have a strong and violent head and a hard rod will easily break the line, so a soft rod and thin line can restrain the fish's force. The fishing line should be 1.2# main line, 0.8# sub-line, and a new Guandong No. 1 hook, which can catch 2 kg. The new Guandong hook is a small diameter hook, suitable for piercing silver carp, and the thin hook is easy for the fish to suck in; fishing for silver carp adopts the floating fishing method, and the float should be a bamboo foot hard tail floating float.

Bait can be fermented bean curd residue (with honey, stinky fermented bean curd, vinegar), accurately thrown, the total amount should be large, each time can be less, for 3-5 minutes. Let the bait slowly enter the water to form an atomized three-dimensional nest, the bait is white or gray. Fermented bran can also be used to make nests, the principle is low cost. When fishing in reservoirs, bait should be used to achieve the purpose of quickly gathering fish. In small fish ponds, you can directly use fishing bait to make nests to lure fish. Lure fishing for silver carp is similar to lure fishing for crucian carp. Unlike lure fishing for carp and grass carp, it is immediately lured and fished. The emphasis is on continuous atomization, fishing in the atomization, forming a feeding environment that makes the fish feel safe and suitable. When fishing for carp and grass carp, you have to wait for a while before the fish come, and you can't swing the rod frequently. Because carp and grass carp are cunning and silver carp are stupid, as long as you don't scare the fish away, you will generally catch them one after another.

Bait, because silver carp like to eat loose, sour, sweet, fragrant and fishy food, the formula should add snowflake powder, shrimp powder, white powder, garlic powder, drawing powder and other baits, which are white and gray with small specific gravity. Master the atomization of the bait. The silver carp and bighead carp produced by Tianyuan Company are very good.

The key to fishing bait is its physical property of "dispersion". When the bait reaches the point, about 1/2 of it will be atomized, and it will be completely dissolved in about 20 seconds, and the float will rise; if the fishing point is deep or the fish density is small, the bait can be stickier and dissolved within 1 minute. Pay attention to the frequency and rhythm of casting the rod slightly faster to effectively lure and retain fish.

Adjusting the mark, my method of adjusting the mark for fishing silver carp is based on the specific gravity and size of the bait. If the specific gravity is light and the hook and bait are small, adjust it to about 8 mesh. On the contrary, adjust the float until the entire float tail is exposed to the water surface and adopt the floating fishing method. You can use the upper hook to hang the bait, and the lower hook is not hung or all hung with bait. After the mark is adjusted, you can start to lure fish. The density of silver carp is high, and the school of fish will arrive in about 10 minutes. The fish bubbles of silver carp are densely packed with more than a dozen soybean-sized white water bubbles connected together. Because silver carp belongs to the upper layer of the water, the waterline is initially set at 1 meter (the water depth of the fishing point is within 3 meters).

Fishing platform, air pressure and water temperature are two main factors that affect the water layer of silver carp. Fish deeper when the air pressure is high, and fish shallower when the air pressure is low. In terms of temperature, the general situation is: fish deep (near the bottom of the water) in spring and autumn, fish about 0.5-1 meters on the shady side at noon in summer, and fish within 0.5 meters in the evening, or even shallower. However, due to the continuous atomization of the bait, the silver carp will chase the bait and swallow it, and change its swimming depth at the appropriate temperature. An obvious sign is that when the bait reaches the fishing point, the float shakes left and right to a large extent, but there is no rubbing action. There are many times when the rod is lifted without fish, and sometimes the fish body can be hung. It can be confirmed that the fish is in the upper layer, and the fishing platform should be adjusted shallow in time. If the float shows signs of falling but there is no fish when the rod is lifted, it means that the fish is still in a deeper water layer, and the adjustment of the fishing platform needs to be tried several times.

When fishing, the reaction of silver carp to the bait is very small, sometimes only one-third of the mark, which requires the angler to react quickly. When the fish swims into the bait, the float will shake slightly or the tip of the float will float up and down. When the float appears to move down forcefully by one-third of the mark, half a mark, one mark or more (the fish signal is similar to that of floating crucian carp, and black floats are mostly caused by bighead carp), the fish will be caught by lifting the rod. The timing of lifting the rod should be grasped at the moment when the fish just sucks the bait into its mouth, which requires years of experience of the angler. At this time, the upper lip of the fish or the lower hook pierces the lower jaw of the fish. When the float appears to float up and down with small movements, it is actually the fish that is sucking the atomized powder near the hook bait. Sometimes the fish lips, gills or fins can be caught by lifting the rod.

When you fish, don't rush to land the fish when it's hooked. Slowly fish. Lead the fish out of the nest first to avoid breaking up the fish in the nest. When you fish a big fish, when the fish is about to exert force, you should give it force first. If you give it force, the fish will not be able to exert force. The key is that if the fish wants force, you give it force. If the fish doesn't want force, you should pull back the rod. This is the principle of using four ounces to move a thousand pounds in Tai Chi. Finally, the big silver carp will obediently enter your landing net.

Practical skills: First, cast the rod lightly. Since the bait is scattered (even more scattered and sparse than the bait when floating crucian carp), the action of casting the rod should be gentle to avoid falling halfway. It is recommended that the main line is slightly shorter than the rod by about 15 cm. It is also possible not to use a turret or press the water. Second, cast the rod accurately and hit it at one point. Since there is no turret reference, you can refer to the reflection of the opposite terrain. Practice has proved that the float in the reflection is clearer. Third, catch the first bite. Generally, the silver carp will swallow the hook after the bait reaches the point, so the angler should react quickly and have solid basic skills. Fourth, transfer the position in time. In the process of fishing silver carp, we often find that after about 10 fish are hooked in a row, no fish are hooked (in a pond with medium density). Although the nest is continuously made, it is all small fish that disturb the hook, indicating that the silver carp school is alarmed and flees and moves. At this time, you should make a quick decision, stand at a high place to observe the movement of the fish school, find a quiet and suitable fishing position to start again, and the scene of continuous hooks will appear again. Fifth, how to overcome the small fish disturbing the hook. First, understand the density, size and density of silver carp in the local mixed-breeding ponds, and then decide where to go. If there are many whitebait and barley ears in the pond, the sourness and atomization of the bait can be appropriately increased (add a little garlic powder, sour food can repel miscellaneous fish). In addition, when the silver carp arrives, the small fish will be scared away. Sixth, distinguish between miscellaneous fish disturbing the hook. Generally, when miscellaneous fish disturb the hook, the float moves upward, and the amplitude is small and there is a sense of shaking. However, silver carp and bighead carp move steadily, and the float has a strong dull feeling. Seventh, when fishing for silver carp and bighead carp, you must raise the rod quickly, use inch strength, and have the ability to not get the hook out of the water if you don't catch a fish. The lips of silver carp and bighead carp are thin and tender, and they are easy to tear without inch strength. Therefore, you must also use a scoop net to scoop. Eighth, fishing for silver carp and bighead carp with hand pole, using floating fishing method (from one drift depth to near the bottom of the water), generally fishing in one drift depth in summer, use light specific gravity bait with light specific gravity bait in summer; in spring and autumn, bottom floating fishing, the viscosity of the bait can be larger. In summer, the bait sinks to the bottom and attracts carp, etc. Therefore, after fishing for silver carp for a while, add some bean dregs, 918, etc. to the bait, change to bottom fishing, and big carp will be caught immediately.

In short, the equipment and techniques used in table fishing for silver carp are the same as those used in floating fishing for large crucian carp. The frequency of hooking silver carp by floating fishing with a hand rod is much higher than that by floating fishing with a sea rod. Also, since silver carp are large, if you catch them several times a day like you do with crucian carp, the catch will be very considerable.

Supplement: The floating fishing technique is generally used for silver carp fishing, that is, the hook and bait do not fall to the bottom, but most people can't get rid of the habit of bottom fishing. The key to floating fishing is to find the depth of the fishing platform. When the fish school comes, it takes several attempts to find this depth, and it changes due to changes in time, water temperature, air pressure, etc.

Use new Guandong hooks or barbless 4-5 Norwegian hooks, which are of smaller diameter and thicker than those used for crucian carp. Most people think that silver carp have big mouths and are used to big hooks (which also serve the purpose of hanging fish). This is wrong. Use small hooks and light hooks. This is the key to sucking in fish. All fish are caught on the upper lip. This is a civilized fishing method.

The bait should be loose, loose, and light in weight. This is something you must master.

I think human interference is the biggest when fishing, such as fishing near, talking, walking, etc. You should be more careful when fishing for silver carp, because they are in the middle of the water. So you should choose an unmanned area.

Normally we will find that silver carp are in the middle of the water and will not move no matter how hard you try to lure them. This indicates that the air pressure is low and the fish are not active, so you should also pay attention to changes in air pressure.

Bait ratio: I first used Lv Diaowang's. Formula 1 is 400g snowflake powder + 30g shrimp powder + 30g white powder + 40g Marukyu No. 1 (garlic flavor) or 10g garlic powder + sweet and sour food (homemade, optional) + 30g protein drawing powder (according to actual increase or decrease), the bait is white and gray, with a small specific gravity. Formula 2 is 100g Dongjun crucian carp + 50g potato starch + 10g strawberry essence + 20g white powder, the bait is pink and white, with a medium specific gravity. Formula 3: For ponds where fish eat feed, add garlic powder to fish feed appropriately, and increase the fishiness of the bait according to the fish's mouth. Master the atomization of the bait. Formula 4: silver carp and bighead carp produced by Tianyuan Company.

Feeding characteristics and signs of silver carp and bighead carp

Know about silver carp and bighead carp Silver carp: commonly known as silver carp, silver-grey in colour. Bighead carp: commonly known as flower carp, fathead, black back with irregular black spots, big head. Silver carp and bighead carp both like oxygen, jump well, and cluster well (but there are few mixed clusters). They are relatively gentle, live in the middle and upper layers of the water, and are afraid of being disturbed. In addition to phytoplankton, they like to eat all kinds of algae and sour and smelly baits.

The feeding characteristics of silver carp and bighead carp Silver carp's feeding action is agile and slight, usually it sucks and spits out food while standing still. Bighead carp's feeding action is more stable, usually it takes food into its mouth first and swallows it slowly on the spot.

Signs of feeding for silver carp and bighead carp are generally slight and repetitive, rarely dragging the tag, black tag or large tag delivery. Signs of feeding for silver carp: the buoy shakes up and down quickly and slightly, or the buoy sinks a little bit and then quickly returns to its original position, repeatedly. Signs of feeding for bighead carp: the buoy suddenly rises (or sinks) about half an eye and remains motionless (or shakes slightly).

Equipment and methods for fishing silver carp and bighead carp It is best to use a harder rod for fishing silver carp and bighead carp, and the hook, line and marker should be thicker (such as 6~8 hooks, main line 3, sub-line 1.5, large buoyancy carp marker). The reason is that silver carp and bighead carp have a strong momentum after being hooked, but the sustainability is not good, and there is no stamina. After stabilizing for 3~4 rounds, it will be easily caught. Fishing for silver carp and bighead carp mostly uses large buoyancy markers in semi-water floating fishing, and bottom fishing is also possible (it is best to adjust the fishing to be sensitive - at least one hook touches the bottom or hangs off). You can also use a sea pole "flying hook" to float fishing (or bottom fishing).

Preparation method:

Buy a pack of silver carp bait, there are many kinds, just pick one, and then a pack of silver carp flavor, and then some corn flour or bran cakes, and a piece of tofu (the water tofu we usually eat) and mix well. It’s okay if it’s a little dry, but don’t mix it too wet. Then you can have a harvest.

Silver carp, also known as water carp, jumping carp, and silver carp, belongs to the Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae, and is one of the four famous mountain carps. It has a flat and slightly high body shape, a spindle shape, a blue-gray back, and white sides and abdomen. The head is relatively large. The eyes are located very low. The scales are fine. The horny ridge in the middle of the abdomen extends from the bottom of the pectoral fin to the anus. The pectoral fin does not exceed the base of the pelvic fin. The color of each fin is grayish white. The morphology is similar to that of bighead carp, but silver carp is impatient and good at jumping. Silver carp is a large freshwater fish raised artificially. It grows fast, has few diseases, and has a high yield. It is often mixed with grass carp and carp. Its meat is tender and nutritious, and it is one of the excellent fish species that is more suitable for breeding. It is one of the main freshwater farmed fish in my country. It is distributed in major water systems across the country.

Silver carp has a big head and mouth, mainly filters plankton, which can play a role in cleaning water quality. In winter, this fish rarely eats at the bottom. When the minimum temperature is higher than ten degrees, silver carp will have the desire to eat. This fish does not eat live bait such as earthworms, bloodworms, shrimps, etc. When fishing for silver carp, use a large line and a large hook with a large bait. The hook should be at least No. 7 New Guandong and No. 8 Yisini or above. The bait should be light and atomize quickly. It is best if it can be completely atomized within two minutes of entering the water [commercial bait: various silver carp and bighead carp bait]. Fish in half water, start fishing from one meter, and move the float towards the pole 40 cm each time when there is no bite [the deeper you fish] until it is 20 cm from the bottom. The float can be exposed to the water surface by 1-5 mesh after hanging the bait [it doesn’t matter how many you adjust and how many you fish]. The hotter the weather, the more fish are on the water surface. After catching a fish, the silver carp's first impact is quite strong. You cannot play tug-of-war with it when reeling the fish in. You have to let go of the hand rope. After several back and forth movements, slowly lift the fish's head out of the water, let it take a few breaths of air, and then you can scoop the fish when its belly is facing up.

Rice bran + vinegar + silver carp meal bought from a fishing tackle shop for 1 yuan a bag, no water added. The rice bran bait should be very fine and green. This bait works very well. I always use this to fish.

Buy a few packs of Guanggao Zhenpu bait and add a little garlic powder. The main thing about fishing for silver carp and bighead carp is to find the fish layer. Fishing for silver carp really does not require any technical skills, but it is quite enjoyable if you use a hand rod. If the key source of the sea rod is thick, I will not talk about the cracking, which is too unskillful.
