When fishing after heavy rain, should we fish on the bottom or float?

Whether fishing deep or shallow on rainy days depends on the season. If it is summer, shallow fishing is most suitable. The following are some suggestions for bottom fishing and floating fishing:

1. Bottom fishing (bottom fishing): After heavy rain, the water flow will become turbulent and the water level may rise. In this case, fish usually move closer to deep water areas or places with slower currents. Choose a bottom fishing method, use a heavy float or sinking bait, and place the hook on the bottom to attract fish that feed on the bottom.

2. Float fishing (float fishing): If the weather becomes clear and sunny after the rain, the water level returns to normal, and the water surface becomes calm, you can consider choosing the method of fishing and floating. By using a float rig and suspending floating bait, you can attract fish to feed near the surface.

Things to note in specific fishing situations

1. Fish habits: Different types of fish have different adaptability to changes in weather and water quality. You need to understand the habits and preferences of the target fish and choose the appropriate fishing method.

2. Experimental fishing method: If you are not sure whether you should choose bottom fishing or floating fishing, you can adopt a tentative fishing method. Try one fishing method first and observe the catch. If the results are not good, you can switch to another fishing method.

3. Local experience: Consult local experienced fishing enthusiasts or ask the managers of fishing spots for advice. They usually have a relatively accurate understanding of local fish conditions and fishing methods.

4. Environmental awareness: Keep the environment clean and pollution-free. Don't litter and respect nature and other anglers. Follow relevant fishing gear use and waste disposal regulations.

5. Safety first: Ensure safety during fishing. Be aware of potential hazards such as water depth, currents, rocks and slippery surfaces. Use life-saving equipment if needed and stay connected to others.

6. Patience and care: Fishing requires patience and care. Observe the water surface, fish movements and bait reactions. Be prepared to wait while keeping an eye out for subtle changes and signals.

7. Learning and experience accumulation: Fishing is a process of continuous learning and experience accumulation. Communicate with other anglers, read fishing technique books and reference resources, and improve your fishing skills and knowledge.
