Already discussed about the passive trout fishing using zherlits and rods-postavshik. The simplicity of the device and placement of gears gives anglers the illusion. Chief among them is the fact that the balance of a dozen gear gives a guarantee of success. The second illusion is that you can pick up a particular “trouble-free” lure.
The belief in this approach becomes the reason of failures, which categorically written off the lack of fish in the pond. And fish in the pond may be too much. Let’s try to discuss briefly, what is the actual cause of failed fishing.
Despite the fact that the fish in the pond a lot or even very much, she may be inactive. Due to pressure peaks, because of pressure from anglers due to the lack of appetite. Here I want to draw attention to the fact that the brown trout feeds on practically, if the water temperature is below 5 degrees. She may act aggressively to protect their possessions, but not to eat. In practice, this means that the fish pays no attention to pasta, shrimp, squid and caviar, but attacking spinners surround a bright and provocative colors.
As the water temperature in winter is near the border of five degrees, the fish in one part of the reservoir may take the bait on the tackle, and in another part of the reservoir to react only with artificial lures. Moreover, it is that the differences in the response of fish depends on the water level. So you should think about it, what a descent to make on the tackle.
With regard to edible baits, often conclusions about their comparative effectiveness is incorrect. All of the pastas from the same manufacturer at its core contain the same attractant with the addition of different flavors. The flavor can only attract fish from a distance. But will the trout bait will depend on the attractant, but rather, on how he knows the fish on the stern, where the fish gain weight in Karelia. As trout of good quality are grown on imported feed, there is a high probability that imported toothpaste contains a chemical compound. By the way, it is highly likely that partially mimic the attractants and composition of salmon ROE. With regard to fry, namely the verhovki, in winter it is rather an imitation of a third-party stimuli than familiar food. Verhovka will be familiar to trout food after the ice melting and water warming up to 7-10 degrees.
Wrong choice of the location and horizon fishing is one of the main causes of failure. It should be added that while many anglers believe the quality of gear a non-factor. This is not so. In most cases, trout does nothing stationary bait, and pushes her, pinches, that is trying. If during sampling the same paste in your mouth fish feel excessive resistance, it throws the bait. You have to use the balance of minimal weight, and in the case of heavy lures to opt out of balance.
Thus, it appears that the fishing on postawski not so passive, if you actually catch instead of waiting for that fish payaetsya itself. But still, the speed of the fish finder is extremely small, and the day is still short, and the outputs trout are not as long and frequent as in the spring.
Personally, I three years ago refused from the stationary gear at all and only use artificial lures. In the first place are lures and sinking lures. Many successfully can be caught on all kinds of soft lures silicone from which it is difficult to single out the most effective. Who else adapts, but once you’ve mastered the game, catch all. I don’t like soft bait that catches the most assorted size fish. Very often it happens that it is the small bite for this trout pond. The advantages, of course, should be attributed to the fact that on smaller “edible” tails, “crabs”, “frog” bites more and fishing more fun.
To increase the likelihood of catching larger fish, I use or spoons from the famous canadian company and its Chinese clones of length 60 and 70 mm, or vibrating lures from another, equally well-known companies of the 21st century. I should note that trout is a fish that can be caught on any known or self-made lure. The main thing from the angler, to find active fish and to pick up the game spinners. In most cases, it turns out that productively is relatively short and not too rapid feed of the lure. The trout have time for any speed of the lure movement, but posting too fast is not effective.
I imagine it approximately so. Bulky and not hurrying to escape the lure probably associate trout with a competitor to seize territory. And quickly running away with leaving the “battlefield” competition. Don’t forget that in cold water the trout eats, it eats, very reluctantly. But attacks on rivals very readily. This confirms another fact. I long ago came to the conclusion that you can stand on one hole during the day and catch one, two, three and even more fish. But you can’t catch anything. But if you constantly move, often completely randomly, checking as “new” and “old” holes, then bites will always be more. It is characteristic that after lowering the bait is most likely that the bite will occur on the second or fifth sweep of the spinners. Usually, the first bite a clear. If the fish is missed, we often immediately occurs and the second bite. If after two dozen strokes of the fish are not apparent, then the wait can last for hours. But if the hole in which it takes was previously, periodically return, you can happen bite. I think it’s not that trout moves through the reservoir, and that the next time you try and test the wells once the lure enters the field of view of the fish, and the reaction occurs immediately.
It is debatable, in my opinion, is the question about the color of the spinner or Wobbler. Trust in a particular color to some extent justified in cases where the active fish are located only in the “boilers”, where the concentration of the trout very large. In such cases it is necessary to catch in a limited area on several holes. After two or three rounds of holes makes sense to change the coloring of the lure. Which is to a greater extent depends on the taste or preferences of the angler.
Trout excellent remarks not only lure any color, but a jig with a diameter of half a millimeter. I loved the trout pond in most cases hunt for perch and almost every bite happen fishing for trout on a small jig with a crank. At the time I was able to save the situation in a completely bellevie days, replacing the spinner oscillating on imp medium size. This makes sense only if the fish somehow showed her presence but all further efforts were futile. Personally, I almost always catch on I will flash a silvery colour, without spots, stripes, dots. Or Wobbler painting “red head” and “perch”. In stock at my bait almost all colors, just in case, which sometimes occurs.
I have abandoned the classical planning balancers. Due to soldered hooks too many gatherings of fish.
I would also like to say a few words about gear in General. I came to the conclusion that despite the small depth of fishing, which rarely exceed three meters, and in the middle of winter trout is often closer to shore, it makes sense to use a fishing line with a diameter of about 0.25 mm. And not to exclude the cliffs, and for the purpose of braking the fall of spinners. Heavy duty balancer can take even more thick fishing line, but not thicker than 0.3 mm. There is another interesting technique that I recently, but, in my opinion, very successfully used. It lies in the fact that on the tee spoons sits a piece of foam. I came to the conclusion that color is not important. It is important that the infusion inhibits the decline of the spinner and makes the trajectory of the fall more gentle. And lifts the tee during the pause at the bottom point. It is that without replanting the fish has the bait sideways, and with grafting enough.
