When is the best time to fish in winter?

Fishing is good in winter when the weather is warm and cloudy, the weather is sunny for a long time, and on the eve of a cold wave.

1. Warm and overcast weather

When there is sunlight in the sky, but there are floating clouds blocking the sunlight, the temperature is warmer than when it is cloudy. This kind of weather is called warm and overcast weather. In warm and overcast weather, there is generally no wind, and even if there is, it is very small. Such weather is very suitable for fishing. Even in winter, it is much warmer than usual, and the body temperature will not be too low, which is a good time for fishing.

In addition, warm cloudy days mostly appear in the warming period after a cold wave. During this period, there is stable sunlight. There is still some time before a new cold wave, and the atmospheric pressure is also stable, so fish feeding It will also become regular and very suitable for fishing. However, we should note that because the sunlight does not directly hit the water surface, the fish will still stay in the deep water area.

2. Prolonged Sunny Weather

As the name suggests, the water temperature remains average even on continuous sunny days. Generally, it is considered a long-lasting sunny weather if it is sunny for four or five consecutive days. If it lasts for more than a week, it is even better. Fishing timing.

In the long sunny weather in winter, the color of the sun is particularly bright and fiery red. The sunlight at this time is also very warm and comfortable, especially at noon, when the body temperature is high, commonly known as "Little Indian Spring". Fishing What people call "fishing for the sun in winter" actually refers to this kind of weather.

This is because the continuous sunny weather for many days has caused the water body to warm up significantly. Affected by the water temperature, the fish leave the water bottom where they have been waiting for a long time and swim to various water layers for activities and feeding. Waters with sufficient sunlight Even more so, the fish become extremely active and easier to take the bait.

3. The eve of the cold wave

Before each cold air arrives, the weather will have a process of warming up. As the water temperature continues to heat up, although the air pressure is unstable, this kind of weather is Great time for fishing. Because the weather gets warmer, fish will go to the water to look for food. At this time, the fish will be very active, their range of activities will continue to expand, and they will even go to shallow water areas to look for food. As the water temperature rises, the oxygen content in the lower water layer decreases, and fish will swim to the upper layer with higher oxygen content. Sometimes there are traces of grass carp, crucian carp and bream activities.

Fish are very sensitive to the weather and can predict the coming cold wave, so they will first look for food in the water and actively forage to conserve heat to withstand the cold winter. Therefore, when the cold snap comes, you will find that fish bite the hook better than in other seasons, and there may even be a phenomenon of grabbing food. Therefore, don’t miss this opportunity when fishing in winter, as the fish catching rate will be greatly improved.
