Probably every fisherman dreams of catching such a fish, which he will tell his family and friends about as the biggest and most important trophy. For many fishermen such a coveted trophy is a white cupid.

This cautious fish is not easy to catch, however, knowing some of the peculiarities of the white cupid's behavior and the secrets of its catching, it is still possible to do it. It is important to take into account the season, time of day, weather, in order to choose the right bait.

General information about cupid

Despite the external differences from carp and carp, the white amur belongs to the family of carp. This fish has an impressive size, and its weight can reach 30 kg.

The motherland of the cupid is East Asia. The presence of this fish in Russian lakes is a sign of its artificial breeding. The fish that are naturally fish are found only in such rivers as Don, Yenisei, Volga and Amur. This fish is herbivorous: absorbing a huge amount of algae, it cleans water with inefficient water.

Cupid is demanding for the cleanliness of the reservoir, as well as for the concentration of oxygen in the water. In this regard, it is quite often possible to meet this fish in paid reservoirs.

As a rule, cupids keep a pack, are characterized by good survival. In winter, they fall into a hibernation. Spawning of the white cupid occurs in June - July and only in flowing waters.

Catching a white cupid is the dream of any angler. However, deciding to "hunt" for this fish, it is worth knowing a number of secrets and peculiarities of catching. So, the spring and autumn months, especially sunny and windless days are considered to be an excellent time for catching Cupid.

Where to look?

Cupid - a large fish, but it lives in small reservoirs. Catch a white cupid, for example, in the Volga - a great success. The situation is simpler with small ponds: here this fish can be observed in large quantities.

When "hunting" for Cupid should respect the maximum silence, as this fish is very shy. Floating at a depth of only about 1-2 meters, the white cupid reacts very sensitively to the fishermen who appeared and can swim almost instantly into the water thickets at the sight of danger. Catch fish from such a "safe place" is extremely difficult.

In the event that the Cupid still "hid", lovers of fishing will have to find an interval in the aquatic vegetation and for a long time to feed the fish.

"Treats"

Catching Cupid is almost everything. Young corn, cucumbers, bean pods, young stems and leaves of dandelions, pearl barley and flesh of reeds go in the course. Some seasoned anglers manage to "hunt" for a white cupid, using cherry, cherry and plum.

The cupid grown in artificial conditions has its own preferences. It is easier to catch on peas, wheat, dumpling, worms, bloodworm.

If the trough is used when fishing, it is usually stuffed with mamaliga. As a bait, a perfect option will be mixed feed, bread and various kinds of cereal in loose form.

Special attention is paid to fishing gear when catching cupid: excellent options are carp fishing rods and fishing rods.

Features of spring fishing

Catching a white cupid in the spring is an extremely fascinating and fruitful activity. It is during the spring period that favorable conditions arise for "hunting" for the specified fish. So, the water warms up to 13-15 degrees in the spring, while the water vegetation is still insignificant. Cupid after long winter months is hungry, so it easily pecks at various bait (whether it's corn, pearl barley or young cabbage leaves).

Catching cupid in spring should occur in calm sunny weather. This fish does not tolerate noise, so fishing should be done in silence (otherwise the cupid will get scared and swim away into the thickets).

Catching a white cupid in spring is carried out for a variety of bait. However, there are the most popular types. Such treats as if specially created for the category of "cupid fishing". The bait is this:

- corn (by the way, favorite delicacy of the white cupid);

- stalks of young reeds;

- leaves of young cabbage;

- clover;

- Leaves of peas;

- pearl barley.

It is not necessary to throw the bait into the water in the expected location of the fish, but slightly to the side. It is worth knowing that the amour bait captures instantly, so the cutting should be fast and long.

Realizing that the extraction on the hook, it must be smoothly led to the shore, avoiding sudden shocks and turns. If the cupid can escape into the water thickets - it will not be possible to pull it out. Since the cupid is a very strong fish, the process of transporting it ashore, as a rule, is long and time consuming.

Catching Cupid in the summer will be much more difficult due to the fact that he has plenty of food during this period, so he will be less willing to react to bait.

May - the beginning of the season of catching a white cupid

The most successful will be fishing in May. This month, cupid fishing can be carried out both during the day and at night. It is worth knowing that with the onset of darkness, Cupid bites as well as in the morning, but its vigilance loses a little (in the daytime, the white Cupid is much more cautious than at night).

On hot and sunny days, large representatives of this fish are more often caught in the morning and evening. But small fish (weighing up to 1 kg) are perfectly caught throughout the daylight hours. In cloudy weather and large specimens of white cupids fall for the bait throughout the daylight hours. For fishing it is better to choose the leeward side.

Catching the cupid in May is also easier because it is during this period that the willow blooms begin. As is known, it is the willow inflorescences that are the favorite delicacy of the white cupid.

However, the nuance is that the willows - the trees are moisture-loving and they grow at the very edge of the reservoirs. Inflorescences of this plant, similar to small bumps, after flowering immediately fall into the pond and become easy prey for Cupid. Therefore, catch is necessary at a time when the inflorescence of the willow is only being formed and the fish can not get it on its own.

When catching Cupid in May, you can sit in the same thickets of willow. If you throw the above inflorescences in the water, the cupid will not take long to wait and immediately rush to swallow the bump. After this, you can safely plant the inflorescences on the hook and run them into the water.

Summer - the height of fishing

For fishing in summer, a warm (but not hot), windless weather is perfect. At the same time, ideally, the water temperature should not be more than 18 degrees. For this reason, the peak of catching the white cupid falls at the beginning of summer.

In the summer, you can find the cupid in the thickets located near the coastline. This is where the fish are looking for food. The Cupid can also be on the shallow reaches, since the water there is quite well warmed up.

Cupid - finicky fish, so in the summer you need to use certain varieties of bait. The fish bites well on reeds and young cucumbers. Excellent proven itself and catching cupid on corn.

It should be noted that in summer, in connection with the abundance of food, this fish reluctantly reacts to the standard bait. Therefore seasoned fishermen use the so-called sandwich from cucumbers and early corn.

The resulting "delicacy" is placed on the hook mixed with the round logs of the most ordinary polystyrene. Polyfoam slightly lifts the bait above the bottom, making it more visible.

Reed as a bait

Being a herbivorous fish, a white cupid seldom floats past a bait in the form of a cane.

Catching cupid on reeds is almost always successful. Use this bait should be correct:

- First you need to cut off a cane shoot with a length of at least 50 cm. At the same time, the bottom of the plant should be cleaned of leaves.

- Fasten the reeds to the hook, and carefully hide the hook under the leaves.

- The trunk of the plant is wrapped with a fishing line.

To throw a bait in water it is necessary so that it was near to growing canes, creating visibility of simply broken plant.

The white cupid almost always reacts to the indicated bait, and the fisherman needs to be very careful and do not miss the moment when the fish begins to eat reeds.

The main feature of using this plant as a bait is that only the lower part of it is in the water. The cane must itself be on the surface of the water.

Sometimes it is difficult to do this, because when catching fish, the float and the sinker are not used in this way (for this reason, difficulties arise when bait is thrown into the pond).

How to catch fish on the feeder?

Catching Cupid on the feeder is quite difficult to implement in terms of bait fishing places. What is the reason for this? The fact is that catching a white cupid on a feeder comes from an impressive distance from the shore.

For a better bait place uses a special volumetric feeder with the test, it can be cast for a long distance.

After cutting, you can proceed to the courage of a cupid. It is very careful and careful to conduct this procedure, as the fish can swim into the aquatic vegetation, from which it is unlikely to be obtained. Feeder rod when fishing in this way should be as reliable and strong as possible, so that at the right moment the fisherman can actively begin to vyvazhivaniyu cupid. Lesku should use a wicker with a leash. The use of a braided line makes it possible to make the tackle more sensitive, which is of great importance during fishing.

When catching cupid on the feeder, special attention should be paid to the feeder rig. The ideal option is the paternoster. It matches the main line, which minimizes the likelihood of breaks. The peculiarity lies in the fact that a particle of foam is inserted into the feeding trough, which coincides with the shape of the feeder itself (for example, in the form of a square or washer). Such a feeder will swim out of the water, and, accordingly, the food will be washed over the entire surface of the reservoir. On a similar trick a white cupid reacts in almost all cases.

Catching a white cupid on a feeder can also occur using conventional feeders, without foam. However, you still need to keep in mind a backup option.

When using the feeder, it is necessary to use a paddle with a long handle and a large head. Leash should be selected from 20 to 80 cm in length. Such a dispersion is obtained because of the use of foam, since if a hook is put on a polystyrene ball, it will raise the bait to a distance similar to the length of the leash.

We prepare boilies for fish

Boyle is a bait based on protein balls. Outwardly, it can have absolutely any shape: globular, pyramidal or oblong, similar to a capsule.

Such a bait is hooked on in an unusual way: the boyle is positioned behind the hook and does not fit onto its forearm. This location of the bait does not allow mining to swallow the whole. This fish does not frighten such a bait. At the moment when the cupid swallows the bait, the hook clings to his lip.

It is important to know that the attachment for such a bait is the hair. The basis of hair equipment includes:

- the hook;

- Boyle;

- leash.

The hook on which the above-mentioned bait is held securely attaches itself to the sinker. When the white cupid reacts to the bait and swallows it whole (along with the hook) - the sinker promotes self-intersection. This is due to the fact that the line is in constant tension, and the stinger with the fork of the hook is bare. For this reason, it is quite difficult for fish to spit out the trapped bait and hook.

There are many recipes for making boilies. However, for catching a white cupid there is a special, special. So, to make a boil for this fish, you will need:

- soybean and corn flour - 200 g;

- eggs - 10 pcs. (Per kilogram of dry weight);

- granulated sugar - 50 g;

- Milk powder - 150 g;

- semolina - 400 g;

- Sunflower oil - 3 tbsp. Spoons.

All the above ingredients are mixed, tinted in the desired color and flavored. The resulting dough is rolled onto a number of small balls (3-5 cm in diameter). After that, the balls are boiled for 3-4 minutes and dried.

An important stage in the preparation of boilies is their aromatization. For catching a white cupid as natural flavors, you can use:

- peanuts;

- leaves of mint or black currant;

- cocoa or ground coffee beans;

- garlic;

- Various culinary seasonings: basil, cinnamon, cumin and others.

Mostly, boilies are made by experienced fishermen on their own. However, in the absence of time and desire to cook the boilies themselves can be purchased at any specialized store.

The boilies themselves can be of two kinds: floating and drowning. The way of their manufacture is different: thus, a sinking boil will be obtained if the ball of dough is first boiled and then frozen. A floating boil is cooked in a microwave oven, but in the process of fishing it is less reliable. It does not last long on the water surface, it crumbles and loses its shape.

According to most experienced fishermen, catching cupid for boilies is more successful when using a floating type of bait.

Instead of confinement ...

Thus, to catch a white cupid is not an easy task. Being a careful and careful fish, the cupid will not react to an unknown bait, left in an unusual place. To "hunt" for this fish should always be prepared thoroughly: bait, tackle, bait - everything should be done in the best possible way.

Only thorough preparation and study of the peculiarities of the behavior of the white Cupid at a particular time of the year will make it possible to pull a worthy trophy in the form of a large individual ashore. Have a successful fishing!
