As the saying goes, "If you don't fish, you won't catch a lot." In our daily fishing process, especially in outdoor natural waters, making a nest can be said to be a very important link, because the biggest purpose of our nest is to gather the originally scattered fish near the nest into the nest, so that we can fish better.
Compared with popular fishing methods such as Taiwan fishing or traditional fishing, how should we make nests during the bridge and rafting process? According to the editor’s years of experience in bridge and rafting, in addition to choosing the right time for nesting, the method of making nests is also extremely critical. Today, we will discuss with you the question of how to make nests more effective when fishing on the bridge and raft.
1. The timing of making a nest
Maybe most fishermen will use bridge rafts to fish crucian carp in autumn and winter, because crucian carp is the most plump time of the year, and crucian carp are affected by the low temperature environment, and they are often more willing to stay in relatively deep places in the river. When we use bridge rafts to fish, we can often catch more and bigger.
After determining the target fish and fishing spot, the timing of making a nest is particularly important. Usually, we can choose to use wine rice to make a nest 1 to 2 hours in advance to gather fish. If we encounter a river gate opening or when the temperature rises in a large range, we can also advance the time for making a nest, and even go to make an overnight nest the night before. The purpose of this is to give fish more sufficient entry into the nest. When a large number of target fish gather in the den, we can naturally catch more after we get off the rod.
2. Methods of making nests
Perhaps many people directly throw the nest materials into the nests when fishing and making nests, especially when using nest materials that can be kneaded into balls. Some people are even lazy. Even for some loose nest materials, they will come up with a method to wrap them with toilet paper or soil. So when we fish and make nests on the bridge raft, what should we pay attention to?
During the bridge raft, the fishing position is just below the bridge. Usually, the nest material can be thrown directly from the bridge to the den, but here we need to pay attention to three situations. When the water flow is relatively fast, the wind is strong, and the bridge is relatively high, the editor also recommends that you use a nest rig to make a nest to prevent the nest material from falling into our den.
We can hang and fix the stainless steel bottoming hole ripper to the wire group, and then slowly put it into the nest. This way, the hole can make the nest material we throw more concentrated, and will not be everywhere due to some external factors, which is more conducive to the development of our bridge and raft work.
Finally, it is the choice of nest material. The nest material used in bridge rafts is not much different from Taiwan fishing, traditional fishing, etc. When fishing crucian carp, it is mainly wine rice. If you want to catch other fish species such as carp, grass carp, you can mix them with fermented corn, wheat and other nest materials with relatively large particles. At the same time, when we make overnight nests, the amount of nest material can be increased appropriately.
OK. The above are some personal experiences and skills about making nests on bridges and rafts. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. I will summarize and share my purely personal practical experience. Remember to collect, follow and support it.
