CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Is Qingjiang fish the same as catfish?

Are Qingjiang fish and catfish the same?

Not the same.

There is t fish among Qingjiang fish, but t fish is not just Qingjiang fish. There are still great differences between the two in appearance, taste, growth environment, etc., so you must carefully distinguish them when purchasing.

Although t fish can be eaten, you should avoid being pricked by its dorsal fin spines and pectoral fin spines when catching them, as there are poison glands on the dorsal fin spines and pectoral fin spines. If you are pricked by them when catching them, you will experience local swelling, severe pain, burning, etc. Therefore, you must wear gloves and take protective measures when catching them.

Main species of Qingjiang fish

The annual fish production in the Qingjiang Reservoir area reaches 5,000 tons. The main species are: Qingjiang black sturgeon, red sturgeon, spoonbill sturgeon (duck-billed sturgeon), dingo, yellow catfish (yellow bone fish), river grouper (fat catfish), barbed hook, hybrid sturgeon, black carp, red carp, mandarin fish, white carp, whitebait, large-mouth catfish, crucian carp, silver carp and green shrimp.

Scientific name: long-snouted d, river grouper, fat fish.

How to make fishing bait

Adapting to the times

In early spring, fish that hibernate over the winter are hungry and will eat anything. Red worms and earthworms are suitable as bait.

In early spring, the weather is fine, the earth is covered with green, and nature is full of vitality. Earthworms can still be used to catch crucian carp, but young grass and reed cores should be used instead for grass carp.

In midsummer, when the sun is scorching, the green grass is getting old, and the tender grass and reed cores are no longer effective. You should use various homemade baits with the right flavor instead.

In early autumn, the cool breeze brings coolness and insects become active. You should replace the usual sour and fragrant noodles with insects, which will achieve twice the result with half the effort...

Adapting to local conditions

In areas where wheat, corn, soybeans, and sorghum are produced in abundance, fish like to eat a mixture of bean cakes, bran, and cornmeal, as well as various flour baits.

In rice-rich areas, fish love to eat rice, rice cakes, etc.

In areas rich in sweet potatoes, butter cake is a top-quality bait.

In pastoral areas, mutton, mutton liver, and mutton fat should be used as the main or auxiliary ingredients of bait.

The coast should focus on using small fish, shrimps and insects that are abundant in the local area and grow on the shore.

Around reservoirs that are rich in tussah silk, tussah silk excrement should be used as bait.

The water surface near the vegetable field should use more cabbage worms...

With this general understanding, any angler can walk to the water's edge with a rod in hand without being at a loss. Of course, the many special baits introduced below are what any angler should further master, practice, revise and improve.

One meat bait

1. Universal fishing bait - earthworms. (Omitted)

2. Top-quality bait: maggots

The method of collecting maggots is: take a piece of fat meat with skin, put it in a place with strong light outdoors, and maggots will appear in just a few days in summer. You can then collect them in a container with some sticky bait powder.

Hooking: The tail of the maggot is thicker and flatter, with three holes on it. The hook tip should be inserted into one hole at a time, and you can only release your hand when the barb penetrates into the body.

Maggots are raised with rice porridge or bean dregs, which can be used as bait after one or two days. If not used, they will turn into pupae after a few days. So when they grow to the ideal size, they should be scalded to death with boiling water, and then dried to 70% to 80% and stored in a small bottle. In order to extend the shelf life and increase the fishing effect of maggots, and make them soft and sweet, a little white sugar can be put in the small bottle, all the maggots can be evenly immersed in the sugar, and the bottle cap can be tightened and placed in a cool and ventilated place.

4. Use of mosquito larvae (omitted)

5 Tips for Fishing Mandarin Fish (Mandarin Fish) Using Loach (Omitted)

6. Earthworm and shrimp double bait fishing

In fish ponds, if bait has been thrown in before fishing and the fish are not eating, or if the water is deep and the transparency is low, the single hook and double bait method should be used.

Peel the shrimp and put it on the hook handle; put the bright red live earthworm on the front of the fishhook. In this way, the shrimp can attract the fish's attention, and the live earthworm can arouse the fish's appetite, thus achieving the purpose of attracting the fish to take the bait.

7. Fishing for Herring with Snail Meat

Using snail meat as bait and corn flour as sticky bait is very effective for catching black carp.

9 The Art of Catching Snakehead Fish (too long, omitted, there are articles on this topic on the old website)

11 Rabbit tail fishing yellow catfish

Peel the rabbit's tail, chop it into meat paste, and mix it with a dough bait made of 30% pea powder and 70% flour to make a special bait for catching yellow catfish.

15. How to Catch Catfish by Threading Earthworms

From spring to early summer, it is suitable to use green earthworms, from midsummer to autumn, it is suitable to use clam meat, frogs, caterpillars,

Use a whole earthworm, the bigger the better. Insert the hook from the neck of the earthworm and out from the other side, then wrap the earthworm around and insert and out again until the tail. When inserting the hook tip into the tail, leave the tail tip outside so that the head and tail can both wriggle.

The green earthworms used to catch catfish should be placed in a basin and raised for two days in advance, and the soil in the basin should be mixed with chicken blood.

The fishing hook should be a crooked-handle hook, which has a longer handle to prevent the catfish from cutting the fishing line with its sharp teeth.

Catfish can be fished day and night, but night fishing is the best.

16. Night fishing bait should be more fishy

When fishing at night, the fishy smell of bait should be enhanced, as carnivorous fish and omnivorous fish are generally interested in fishy smell.

Common baits with strong fishy smell include pork liver, livestock spleen, eel meat, etc.

17 Freshwater lobsters do not need hooks (also known as "sea lobsters" here).

18 Ayu Fishing (Omitted)

19 Fishing for stone worms and stone flowers (omitted)

20. The best bait for Taimen is small live fish.

21 How to fish for eels

Eel is also called white eel. Use green earthworms to fish. Use a dip net to catch it. (Edited)

22 Snail Fishing

Black carp is a carnivorous fish, and the best bait is snails.

First, smash the snail shell, hang the snail meat on the hook, leaving the hook tip exposed. This fishing method often results in accidentally catching carp.

Black carp likes to be quiet, so all fishing movements should be light and do not change bait frequently.

23. The best bait: swallow meat. (Don't use it, it's a sin)

24: "Fragrant Porridge" to Treat Red Earthworms

Collect some mint grass and boil it into a porridge. After it cools down, add the red earthworms to be used the next day into the porridge. The next day, pick up the red earthworms and use them as bait. The fishing effect of this kind of red earthworms is far better than that of red earthworms that have not been treated in this way.

(There is no such grass on our mountain. I wonder if any anglers from other places can help me try.)

26 Pests are good bait.

27. Preparation of insect bait flavored water.

Soak various insect baits in a seasoned water before attaching them to the hooks. After two or three quarters of an hour, these insects become seasoned fishing baits. Ingredients: 100 grams of water, 10 grams of MSG, and 3 grams of salt.

29 Drunken Prawn Fishing

Use double hooks. One hook is hooked from the chest and abdomen, with the hook tip reaching the hard shell in front of the head without showing the tip; the other hook is used to hold a drunk shrimp (just put the shrimp in white wine and choke it) and the hanging method is the same.

32 Fermented bait for fishing silver carp and bighead carp

Add some Chinese medicinal galangal powder to the cornmeal (like sprinkling pepper on food, not too much), scald it with boiling water, steam it, and after it cools down, knead it into a dough of moderate hardness, then put the dough in a plastic bag, seal it tightly, and let it ferment and turn sour.

33 Fish Eye Fishing (Omitted)

34 Bean worms for fishing carp and crucian carp

In rivers north of the Yangtze River, bean worms are the best bait for fishing carp, crucian carp, or a hybrid of crucian carp and carp (some places call it the same fish). It is suitable for fishing in autumn.

35 Special Shovel Bait - Earthworm Paste (Omitted)

37 Silkworm Pupa Fishing Cold Water Fish

In the west and northwest of my country, cold-water fish such as the heavy-mouthed schizothorax are abundant, and they mainly live in the lower layers of river bends, eddies and rapids where the bottom is sand or gravel.

Silkworm pupae are the most effective bait. Other insects, larvae and earthworms may also work, but they are not as effective as silkworm pupae.

38. Pickling shrimps with chive juice to catch grass carp

Shell the shrimps and soak them in leek juice after a day and a night. Then use them as bait. It is especially effective for grass carp.

This type of bait should be kept 10-20 cm away from the bottom of the water.

41. Cook the pork rind until tender

Pork skin is a good bait, and it would be a pity to throw it away. However, the skin must be cooked thoroughly (but not melted), otherwise it will not only lose its aroma, but also the hook will be able to pierce quickly after the fish bites the bait.

Undiced pork rinds make great bait and are durable.

44 Carp fishing bait should be adapted to local conditions

Residential areas: green onion;

Cow bathing place: add cow dung to various fishing baits.

Middle Yangtze River: Half-baked sweet potatoes dipped in sesame oil.

Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau: 3-in-1 dough (1/3 cornmeal, 1/3 flour, 1/3 broad bean flour)

Where oak trees are planted along the coast: add oak silkworm feces to various fishing baits.

Poyang Lake: 2-in-1 dough (half flour and half broad bean flour)

Yellow River: bean worm.

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: Half-cooked potatoes;

Guangdong and Guangxi: bean sprouts or mulberry;

Taihu Lake: earthworms, using broad bean powder as bait,

Northeast: Red worms

Shandong: Clam meat

Ningxia: Silkworm

The Upper Yangtze: Maggots

To put it simply, the nest material is rapeseed cake, and the bait is red worms and earthworms.

You still need nesting materials. It’s better to buy ready-made ones instead of making them yourself.
