How to catch large pond catfish

The bait should be meat bait such as small frogs, small loaches, small fish, and large earthworms. It is best to use small soil frogs, but large earthworms can also be used. Use the tip of the hook to hook into the anus of the small frog and reach the upper shell of the frog. The tip of the hook is not exposed. The method for using a large earthworm is to hook the tip of the hook from the head of the earthworm to most of the earthworm, leaving the tail of the earthworm dragging on the tip of the hook. That is to say, fishing in summer should be divided into three times: morning, noon and evening. At the same time, it should also be based on the temperature and weather changes at that time. In normal weather: ① Morning. Around 4 to 8 o'clock, the mixed water fishing bait is 10 to 15 cm away from the water surface and uses the shaking method. The clear water bait should be about 25 to 30 centimeters away from the water surface, and the dragging method should be used. ②Noon. After 10 a.m. and before 4:30 p.m. The water temperature is higher in summer and generally exceeds 30°C. Fish often swim in waters with a lot of aquatic plants or shady areas. Therefore, it is best to be in waters with many aquatic plants or shady areas at noon in summer. If you encounter water chestnuts and lotus root leaves, fish along the water. Hook the hook under the edge of lotus root leaves. If you use other aquatic plants to catch the bait from the grass, place it gently. Do not use the shaking method, let alone the dragging method. If the water is clear, place the bait deeper according to the situation. ③The effect is best in the evening, including at night, because after the sun sets, firstly, there is no strong light; secondly, there are no other animals intruding; thirdly, the water temperature drops, which is suitable for it to move around and look for food, and fish of all sizes move slowly along the water's edge. They swim for food, so summer evenings are the best time. But there are also disadvantages, mainly the difficulty in seeing the depth of the water, the distance from the edge and obstacles. The solution is to observe the terrain and water conditions during the day for night fishing. There are a few points to master when fishing at night: First, slowly pull the bait along the water edge, about 10 centimeters away from the water surface. If you use the shaking method, you can only shake it gently, and the bait should be 3 to 5 cm away from the water edge and water surface. Second, you must know how to throw the hook at the right time. If you throw it too early and the hook tip does not enter the mouth, it will be easy to detach; if you throw it too late, the fish is highly sensitive and flexible and may spit out the hook at any time, and you may not get a harvest. It is best to wait for the fish to bite. The best effect is to throw the hook when the hook is running back. Third, keep your steps light when walking around. Fourth, don’t use a flashlight to shine on the water. Fifth, don't speak loudly. Sixth, the speed should be controlled to move one step in about two seconds. Seventh, whether the water is clear or mixed at night, the bait should be shallow rather than deep. Autumn fishing is the best season of the year, especially between the beginning of autumn and frost, when the effect is better. In order to hibernate, they forage along the waterside in the morning, noon and night. Both the shaking method and the dragging method can be used for fishing. However, if you encounter clear water, you must put the bait deep and use the dragging and placing methods. After the frost, the water temperature gradually drops below 15℃, and the catfish fishing is coming to an end. However, if there is good weather, you can also get harvest at noon in the leeward and sunny waters with aquatic plants and small branches. Things to note: It is a very sensitive and tricky fish, and all its movements are very flexible. If it is caught with a fishing net in a ditch or pond, it will take at least 3 to 5 days before it dares to take the hook. If you find a net fishing in a ditch or pond, do not set a hook in it. Remember not to use a fishing rod that is too hard. The rod is too hard and has no toughness. In addition, fish are highly sensitive and can spit out the hook at any time, resulting in no harvest. No, if the hook tip is not very sharp, it will not hook into the mouth shell, and it will be easy to unhook. Regardless of the season, if you encounter winds above level 5, it is not suitable for fishing because the water waves are large and fish rarely swim around the water for food and generally sink to the bottom. If you want to fish, you can only find the edge of the water that is backed by wind and waves or a place with aquatic plants and water gaps. First lower the hook from the corners, tips, bays, and concave and convex places of ditches and ponds. At the same time, it depends on the slope of the edge. During the day, catfish look for food at the edge of the water with a small slope. In the morning and evening, catfish often swim to the edge with a large slope to feed. At night, catfish often move in waters with a large slope. Turbid water is good water for catching catfish. There are two types of muddy water, one is surface muddy water and the other is green muddy water. If there is no grass, you must fish along the water edge, using either the shaking or dragging method.

Remember not to fish in the middle of the water. In muddy water with grass, fish at the edge of the water first and then the nest
