Fishing method of Spanish mackerel

The choice of Spanish mackerel fishing spot is very important. Usually, islands and islands should be chosen near relatively large reefs with clear and transparent water quality. Fishing Spanish mackerel can be bait or bait. The simulated bait is more suitable for island fishing, and the real bait is the best for boat fishing.

Rock reef fishing method

1. Long-throw-and-drag fishing method on rock reef: Long-throw-and-drag fishing method on rock reef is a practical method with the original form of "reed bud" fishing method, which has a history of nearly 100 years in Dalian. Because its fishing tackle is simple, convenient and flexible, and the hook rate is high, it is loved by the majority of fishing friends.

Fishing tackle is equipped with a long-distance throwing rod of 3.9-4.2 meters around 30th, with a rotating reel of about 6000 (in the past, there were mostly two bamboo poles with toothed reels and the main line was 0.6mm). Such as simano AERLEX5000 ~ 6000. Main line No.4 long-distance braided line, 100 meter is enough. In the past, a section of 0.2-0.3 mm steel wire rope was used to divide the line, which was about 400 mm long. At present, small-diameter coated braided steel wire or special anti-biting front wire is mostly used. The hook is a big hook, with a length of 1.20mm, a hook door width of 30 mm, and a hook handle made of lead, with a thickness of 10mm and a length of 60 mm, which is streamlined. (It is sold in fishing gear shops and can also be made of white ladle electrodes with a diameter of 2 ~ 3 mm) Bait-shaped, mostly puffer fish skin or white plastic cloth, is tied to the lead handle at the back of the hook with a string.

Fishing tackle matching: the main line passes through all the guide rings of the rod body, and there is a big 8-shaped swivel ring at the end of the line. Then tie the hook line about one meter long on the figure-eight ring.

Fishing point and fishing method: Choose the wind force of about 4 ~ 5 (preferably southwest wind or northwest wind), the morning and evening time of spring tide, the time of sunrise or dawn, or the evening time of sunset. The fishing position is selected in the place where the water quality is clear, the waves are rolling, and the countercurrent foam has a reef head and the sea surface is abrupt. The station must have room for manoeuvre, so as not to interfere with the swing of the pole. Throw the rod and the line, and try your best to throw the bait to the distant sea. When the whole fishing group splashes down to about two meters below the water surface, immediately press the rod head down and point to the sea surface, and shake the handle of the fishing boat at a uniform speed to take up the line, so that the bait looks like a small fish swimming. Pay attention to observe the sea surface at any time, because mackerel likes to eat a kind of fish (pectoral fin part), which is about 150 mm long and about 25 mm thick. The blue-spotted mackerel often jumps out of the water to intercept food when chasing. Fishing friends in Dalian call this phenomenon Spanish mackerel "starting to row". It means that a large group of mackerel gather on the sea surface or the upper water surface to feed crazily. At this time, the fishing group should be thrown back to the line immediately, and the fish can be obtained immediately, and every shot will hit. But in this case, we must pay attention to one thing, that is, when throwing the line, we are only allowed to throw it to the front and left and right sides of the fish's escape direction, and we must never throw it to the back or middle. Because this distance is the middle part of the pursuit of mackerel, once the line is thrown here, the mackerel will be scattered by the loud noise of the hook and bait, commonly known as "fried fish". In addition to falling short of success, it may also attract scolding from neighboring fishing friends.

There are two main steps to intercept the swallowing hook, one is to swallow it in one gulp, and the other is to turn around and leave the place. Therefore, the reaction on the fishing rod and feel is that the fishing rod is suddenly stuck in a uniform ring, accompanied by a strong pull back, and at the same time the rod body is swayed from side to side by the fish turning and swimming. Because blue mackerel often uses the method of "washing cheeks" to unhook and escape at the moment of loosening the line. Bring the line closer and copy it on the shore with a big net. If it is less than 500g, lift it directly out of the water and carry it ashore. As mackerel's teeth are sharp, you should be more careful when picking up the hook. The specific method is: hold the hook handle, push the hook into the mouth of Spanish mackerel, and then press it horizontally to change the direction of the hook, so that the hook can be fished out. However, it is suggested that it is safer to unhook with professional fish tongs.

Advantages: the fishing tackle is simple to match, the fishing point selection range is wide, the fishing method feels intense and the operation is simple.

Disadvantages: Because the fishing position is abrupt on the sea surface, close to the water surface, and the safety factor is small, attention should be paid to strengthening anti-skid and wave prevention measures.

2. Reed Bud Fishing Method on Rock Reef: Reed Bud Fishing Method is popular in Liaodong Peninsula in recent years, because of its simple fishing tackle and exciting fishing method.

Fishing tackle is equipped with: 2.7m ~ 3.0m special 10 ~ 30g reed poles, several floating reed poles or "spoon-shaped iron plates" with different grams. Matching spinning reels, such as Simano 3000 ~ 4000. The main line is a special auxiliary line, which has low plasticity. The sub-wires are generally "nylon front wires" or plastic-steel covered wires with a length of about 100 cm.

Fishing point and fishing method: the choice of fishing point is basically the same as that of rock reef fishing method, except that the water quality is clear, there are waves rolling, and the reef head with countercurrent foam belt is abrupt from the sea surface, so it is best to choose the intersection where flowing water flows. The station must have room for manoeuvre, so as not to interfere with the swing of the pole. Throw the pole and the line, and try your best to throw Luya to the foam belt in the distant sea. When Luya splashed under the water, he immediately pressed the fishing rod head down to the sea surface, and at the same time shook the handle of the fishing boat at a constant speed to take up the line, so that Luya struggled and swam like a wounded fish from time to time in the "swimming" to lure the blue mackerel to prey. If you take up the line until no fish are hooked, you should throw out the fishing group again and operate the line as before until the fish are lured to intercept the swallowing hook. At the same time, we should pay attention to observing the sea surface at any time, so as to adjust the Luyak number at any time and adopt the submerged floating type. However, it should be noted that when the fish near the shore have no hooks, the line should be closed quickly to avoid losing the bait. After all, the good road is precious.

Advantages and disadvantages: slightly the same as ocean fishing. It is precisely because of the better tonality of fishing tackle that fishing will be more exciting and interesting.

Fishing boat fishing method

1. Towing fishing method

Trawling mackerel is commonly known as "dragging mackerel" in Dalian. Through the power-driven towing of the ship, the bait floating under the water surface swims as fast as a small fish, thus inducing the mackerel to chase and swallow with the bait, which means "attraction".

Equipped with:

One or two poles of 100 are used for special boat fishing and are matched with horizontal fishing boats. There are more than 6 main braided wires with a length of about 200 meters. The bait was thrown with a rock reef. The 0.3 mm steel wire rope of NaoSi is about 500 mm long (it is sold in fishing gear shops, or replaced by fresh water string hook steel wire, but its hook frame needs to be cut off). You can also use a road bait with an anchor hook at the tail below the abdomen; However, it is necessary to add about 50 grams of lead pendant at the front end of the brain line in front of the bait.

Fishing position selection and fishing method:

Choose to go out to sea in the weather with wind force of 2-3, and the fishing position should be about 50 meters in the radius of the reef island in the sea. Tide requires that the tide falls by half (that is, half tide, also known as "falling half shelf") or "backflow" (about half an hour after the tide reaches its lowest point, the time when the tide just begins to rise) and the "backflow" period after the high tide. Specific fishing method: you need to choose a fishing boat with small horsepower. When the ship's horsepower is too high, the twin propellers at the stern will turn up bigger waves, with longer track and larger area, which will easily scare the Spanish mackerel to escape. It is best to use a Yamaha small boat to hang up, usually about 8 horsepower. The speed is about 8 knots per hour. When the boat enters the fishing point, the speed of the boat slows down to about 4-5 knots. After throwing the fishing rod and bait, the ship continued to put the line into the water. When it is about 80- 120 meters away from the ship, the ship will accelerate to about 6 knots, so that the fishing line behind the ship will be slightly straightened and the bait will be brought to about one meter below the sea surface. Then insert the fishing rod into the special card seat beside the boat or hold it in your hand to keep the angle between the fishing rod and the sea surface. This fishing method is mainly embodied in the rod body. When fishing, the fishing rod suddenly moves up and down quickly, and then the fishing rod bends as a whole. This time is the best time to fish. Lift the pole in time, slow down or stop the ship immediately, and then shake the handle quickly to return to the line. Therefore, the fishing method is mostly aimed at the big herring. If the fish is too big, we should adjust the pay-off. Because the fishing ground is large, remote and without obstacles, the fish can struggle to catch the line, but they should always keep the fishing line tight to prevent the big fish from unhooking when washing their gills. Until the fish no longer need the line, then roll the wheel to take up the line, and repeat it several times. The mackerel is dragged to the side of the boat, exhausted, and hooked in the cabin with a big net or a plane to catch the fish proudly.

Advantages: This fishing method can be described as the most leisurely fishing method. Put the line into the sea, get on the boat, watch the blue sky and white clouds, listen to the sound of waves and seagulls, and occasionally glance at the fishing rod, just waiting for the fish to bite. When the fishing rod shakes its grip, it is more exciting to deal with fish, which makes the majority of fishing friends deeply love this method. Many years ago, a fisherman in Dalian fishing area used this method to catch a big fish one meter long and weighing about 9 kilograms in the southern part of Pian Island. It was a beautiful talk for a while, which made many fishermen "flock" to the waters to try it.

Disadvantages: the weather conditions are harsh, living in the deep sea, and the safety factor is relatively small. Therefore, we must pay attention to the weather forecast when fishing in this way, and we can only go to sea under the premise of absolute safety. At the same time, it is necessary to prepare more drinking water, food and necessary life-saving equipment to avoid unnecessary injuries caused by sudden weather changes and ship retreat.

2. Positioning and hanging fishing method in culture raft area

The closed fishing range of Spanish mackerel is limited to the shellfish culture area (such as scallop culture area) to catch some small Spanish mackerel, with an average individual weight of about 400 g ~ 750 g, and the fishing opportunity is from mid-September to1early October every year.

Fishing tackle equipment: No.30 hard-adjusted sea pole or No.50 boat pole, preferably 3-3.6m in length, with rotating reel. There are about five main lines, and the brain line is still a thin steel wire, only a little thinner, about 0.2 mm, because the teeth of mackerel are very sharp, and the general nylon fishing line is easily bitten by its sharp teeth. The same is true of other fishing methods above. The brain line is about 200 mm long. The hook is Changhai No.301or No.22 hook, and the bait needs small live fish (which can be obtained from the cage for cultivating shellfish) or big loach, but the effect is slightly worse than that of small live fish. Prepare another big float, two space beans and a lead pendant slightly lighter than buoyancy.

Specific fishing position and fishing method:

Fishing positions should be selected in shellfish culture areas, and there should be areas where aquaculture workers can operate on the spot. At this time of the year, the cages of shellfish such as scallops are hung for a summer, and most of the meshes of the cages are covered with sea mud and marine garbage, which affects the permeability, light transmittance and growth of shellfish. Therefore, aquaculture workers need to lift the cage out of the water at this time, tap the net with wooden utensils, and then rinse it in seawater several times to make the sundries fall off and expose the mesh. Because of its "filth", including all kinds of shrimp, small fish and plankton parasitic on the net wall, it forms a small range of "muddy water", which attracts all kinds of small fish to come to feed, such as "Spanish mackerel" (anchovy) and "stick" (a kind of upper-level small-pointed fish). At the same time, it will attract Spanish mackerel (Spanish mackerel), forming a chain state of "mantis catches cicada, yellowbird comes last". This is the best time for fishing.

Specific fishing methods: sail the boat into the "muddy water area", pull out the fishing line with the same length, clip two space beans on the fishing line 2 meters, put on a float (the float must be the one with a hole at the bottom), put on a through-hole lead pendant, tie a connecting ring at the end of the line, and then connect the steel wire with a quick pin and a hook to the connecting ring to complete the pairing. Take a fresh small fish and hang it lightly on the back of the fish (remember not to hang it too deep, so as not to affect the freshness), put the fishing line horizontally and vertically in the swimming place where you can see the small "Spanish mackerel food" or "big stick", and take back the fishing line slightly. When the float is stable, the underwater bait keeps swimming at a distance of 2 meters from the sea surface, holding the fishing rod and waiting for good news. At the same time, pay attention to the water surface. When small fish such as Spanish mackerel suddenly scurry around and jump out of the water, it must be a signal that Spanish mackerel is coming to start chasing food, so "get ready" and pay attention to the floating trend at any time. The hook swallowing reaction of this fishing method is mainly manifested in floating. You can't lift the pole when the float swings from side to side. At this time, it is mostly caused by hanging live bait or Spanish mackerel passing by. When the float suddenly inclines to the "black float" and the pole body feels shaking, you should immediately lift the pole hook and pick it in the cabin. Therefore, most of the mackerel caught by this fishing method is about 30 cm, and the average fishing rod can bear its weight of 400 ~ 750 g, so you don't have to worry about breaking the rod, just lift it directly.

This fishing method is a new fishing method which is different from the traditional fishing method (that is, throwing or dragging the line) when the author went to Dengshahe sea area in Jinzhou District, which is more than 80 kilometers away from Dalian in the early autumn of 1996. It's just that local people don't need to float or drop lead when fishing, they just need to sink the bait to half the water by feeling. Compared with the author's lead-dropping and space-bean-hanging fishing methods, the fishing method of controlling the feeding layer bait of the blue-spotted mackerel is not effective, which often leads to unhooking and running away because of the inaccurate timing of lifting the pole. Only three days later, the author took another fisherman to this sea area for the second time, and used the "hanging fishing method" to catch more than 60 fish, nearly 40 kilograms, in just over four hours. This method was widely used in the local area, but the fish caught were different because of the specific collocation of its fishing group.

Advantages and disadvantages: This fishing method is easy to learn and well matched. The fishing rate is almost 100%, but the fishing location is complex and needs various factors to act at the same time. Only in this way, this fishing method can only be implemented in shallow shellfish culture areas, and the feasibility of other sea areas needs to be tested by practice.

3. Iron plate Lu Ya fishing method

The "iron plate Lu Ya" fishing method on board is a popular fishing method in recent years because of its simple fishing tackle and exciting fishing method.

Fishing tackle: Choose Luya pole with the length of 1.8m or 2. 1m, and match it with rotating reels such as Simano 3000 ~ 4000, or double-shaft professional Luya reel (commonly known as duckbill reel). Such as shimamo-mg 1000. The main line is a special auxiliary line, which has low plasticity. Sub-wires are generally "nylon front wires" or plastic-coated silk wires with a length of about 120 cm. How many iron plates are there ranging from 30 to 50 grams?

Fishing group collocation: the main line passes through all the guide rings, and the head of the line is a small or medium 8-shaped ring, or it is directly connected to the auxiliary line by the "line knot" method, and then connected to "Luya".

Specific fishing method: it is best to choose the fishing point in the extended sea area of the island reef where fish often swim. There is no need to throw the fishing rod too far. When the "iron plate" drives the main line to approach 8 ~ 10 meters below the water surface, the lifting rod twitches to take up the line intermittently. At the same time, pay attention to the "twitch" process when fishing, and then "twitch" the line to the surface. If you miss the fish, you will still fish as before until you catch the fish.

There are two main steps in the interception and swallowing of mackerel in iron plate fishing. One is to suddenly stop the mouth, and the other is to turn around and leave the original place. Therefore, the reaction on the fishing rod and feel is that the fishing rod is suddenly blocked in the process of returning to the line, and the rod body is greatly bent, and it is dragged down with great strength like hanging the bottom. At the same time, due to the fish's struggle and swimming, the rod body swayed up and down. At this time, the rod should be lifted immediately, so that the hook is deeply stuck on the fish jaw and stopped. At the same time, shake the handle and slowly press the rod body to the water surface to keep the rod body from breaking due to excessive force. Moreover, it is necessary to keep the fishing line tight, and there can be no loose line phenomenon, so as to avoid the decoupling of the blue-spotted mackerel. On June 5438+ 10, 2006, the author caught mackerel with "iron plate" fishing method on the boat, and "caught" a big fish of nearly two kilograms on the high raft in the west of the island around 10 in the morning, which caused a sensation throughout the island.

Advantages and disadvantages: This fishing method is simple and easy to learn. Only with proper collocation, the fishing rate is almost 100%. However, this fishing method requires constant twitching and entanglement, and requires more efforts, patience and perseverance. Once you don't master it well, you will often lose the bait because of hanging the bottom.

In addition, there used to be a way to catch mackerel in the boat, that is, two people rowed a boat and one stood at the bow to observe the fish. Find the fish situation and speed up the paddling. When the fishing group can reach the extended position of the blue spotted mackerel group, one person can paddle and one person can fish. Those with good skills can also row and throw lines for fishing.

Season and time

Mackerel is a temperate and tropical marine fish, which requires high water temperature and quality. It is difficult to find it in the heavily polluted sea area. In Dalian, mackerel has appeared in the coastal areas since the beginning of June every year. At this time, the locals call it "spring mackerel", and its migratory population density is small, mostly foraging in shallow waters (areas with high water temperature), and the individuals are small. From early September to mid-June, 10, the number and density of adult mackerel swim back, weighing more than 600 grams, with high foraging enthusiasm and fast swallowing of hooks. Fishing time should be chosen from dawn to sunrise, sunset to dusk, and there is little foraging at noon. Especially around the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, it is the best season to catch mackerel. During this period, most of the reefs along the coast of Dalian were crowded in the morning and evening, throwing poles and lines, one after another. When the fish is hooked, the excitement of the fisherman and the silver light and shadow occasionally fall on the bow and shore, and the reef head is the most beautiful scenery.

location

The best place to catch mackerel is the section from the north bridge of Binhai Road to Yanwoling, the stone trough of Laohutan, the old island of Lingshui Bridge, and the waters near Erluanzi and Sanluanzi.

Among them, Beida Bridge 1 1 can catch eels at night. Spanish mackerel stewed frozen tofu, braised Spanish mackerel and roasted Spanish mackerel.
