First, the selection skills of fish sinker
Although the fish sinker is small, it has a great effect, and it has a great relationship with the amount of fishing. The following I will introduce the selection skills of fish pendants.
Hand Pendant
The selection principle of the hand pole pendant is: it should be light and not heavy, small and not large, generally closer to the shore, the fish are more vigilant, and the slightest noise will be far away escape. With light weight and small weight, it will enter the water silently and will not frighten the fish, which can ensure more fishing. This is also the essence of the so-called ‘ghost fishing’ when fishing for crucian carp in Taiwan.
Selection of sea rod
sinking
The situation involved in sea rod fishing is more complicated, and generally it can be considered from the following aspects.
??According to the hardness of the fishing rod, choose the fishing rod with a short body and a thin tip. For example, the sea rod below 2.7 meters is usually soft and should be equipped with a light weight of more than 50 grams; the rod body is long and the rod body is thick. It is advisable to match the weight of more than 60 grams.
??Choose the drop according to the water bottom conditions. The water bottom is flat. When the silt is not thick, round drop, spherical drop and oval drop can be used; when the silt is thick and the water is shallow, flat drop and sheet drop can be used; If you are unfamiliar with the underwater situation, it is more suitable to use a flat pendant, because it is not easy to enter the mud, and it is not easy to hang on the bottom.
??Select the pendant according to the different hook groups. If the bomb hook is used, the live pendant is used; if the string hook is used for fishing, the dead pendant is used.
?? According to the speed of the water, choose the sinker to fish in the waters with fast flow rate, and you should choose the streamline type sinker, such as jujube-shaped, egg-shaped, etc., and the weight should be larger; fishing in still water or waters with slow flow rate, The light pendant is used, and the shape requirements are not very strict.
Second, the connection method between the fishing line and the lead sinker
There are two main ways to install the sinker on the fishing line. In fishing line activities, the dead sinker is the sinker fixed on the fishing line, so the connection methods are also these two.
(1) The connection between the fishing line and the live weight
The connection between the fishing line and the live weight is very simple, and this type of weight generally has a through hole Or a metal ring through which the fishing line is passed. For example, some sea rod sinkers can be connected by live sinkers.
(2) The connection between the fishing line and the dead weight
There are many ways to connect the fishing line and the dead weight, mainly because the form of the weight is different . For the through-heart sinker, it can be fixed with a connector or inserted tightly; for the open sinker, lead sinker, etc., the pressing type can be used to deform it and press it tightly on the fishing line.
