Catching perch in October. How and what to catch a perch in the fall?

Autumn is a great time for fishing for predatory fish. During this period, her activity sharply increases, and she is in constant search of food. Perch is no exception. This striped predator, going to winter, increasingly comes out of the depths and actively hunts.

September and October are considered the most suitable months for bass hunting. Fishermen at this time rush to the reservoirs in the hope of satisfying their hunting passion before the long winter. And the culinary properties of the striped predator at this time are simply excellent. Having fattened over the summer fat, it is much tastier than in the spring.

Catching perch in September

In September the perch did not depart from the summer regime. He is inactive, prefers to stay away from the shore and hunts without much enthusiasm. If the weather is hot, you can catch it only in the morning and in the evening. In the afternoon, the perch leaves further from the shore to cooler water. During this period, you can catch it on:

• Float fishing rod;
• Feeder tackle;
• spinning;
• Year old mormyshku;
• Donka;
• An elastic band.

Tackles for catching perch are selected based on fishing conditions and features of the reservoir. As a bait used worm, bloodworm, bait, as well as various artificial baits for spinning. By and large, catching perch in September is not much different from spring or summer fishing. With the first cold snap, his behavior changes dramatically, but catching a striped predator during this period will not be difficult even for a beginner.

Catching perch in October

Colds activate the perch and push it to find food. Increasingly, he is at the shore, eating small fry, as well as insects that fell into the water along with the autumn leaves. Flocks of small "sailors" around the clock chasing a trifle in the coastal zone. "Boiling water", formed by a frightened fry, will indicate the location of the predator.

A large humpback near the shore is not worth looking for. He seldom leaves his abode. Catching a large perch implies its enticement from pits, buckets, deep whirlpools and creeks that are remote from the coastline by means of poultry, lures or wobblers. You can also use feeder, float tackle or donku, however their effectiveness, in comparison with spinning, will be much smaller. The thing is that the fixed bait can not attract the humpback, as the bait will do.

Catching perch in October will surely bring a good catch and pleasure from fishing, if properly pick up the tackle and bait.

What is better to catch perch in October?

The most effective devices for autumn hunting and for "sailor" and humpback are:

• spinning;
• A summer mormyshka;
• Float fishing rod.

Catching of perch in autumn is most often carried out not from the bottom, as in spring or summer, but from the surface of water or in its thickness. This is also associated with seasonal features of predator behavior. During this period he prefers to hunt in such horizons. Therefore, the listed gear should have settings calculated for the average depth of the catching place.

Spinning equipment for perch

For spinning fishing for a small perch, you will need:

• Spinning rod of light class (up to 22 g) up to 3.5 m long;
• Inertia-free coil with a bobbin size of 1000-1500;
• A monofilament line 0.25 mm thick or a braid with a cross section of 0.2 mm;
• Fishing line for leash 0.2 mm thick;
• Carabiner for fastening bait;
• Bait in the form of a wobble, a turntable, a jig-head, a vibrotail or a small wobblers.

It is desirable that the rod form has an elastic top. This will make it possible to make a more precise casting and increase the effectiveness of the cutting. The coil can also be used without a friction brake. For small copies, it will not be needed. The steel lead in the rigging is also not needed - the perch line does not bite.

If you plan to catch a humpback, the tackle must be strengthened. The thickness of the line should be increased by 0.1 mm, and the coil should be taken with a clutch.

In order to properly assemble the tackle, you first need to fix the coil on the handle of the rod. For this purpose, a reel seat is provided on it. If the design of the blank does not provide for it, the coil can be fixed using an insulating tape or an adhesive tape. The line is passed through the access rings from the top of the rod and a simple loop is fixed on the spool. Its length should be at least 100 m. The line is wound on the spool by rotating its handle. Next, we tie a leash to it with the "loop in a loop" method, on which the bait will cling to the carbine.

Selection of spinning bait

Spinning perch in autumn can be successful only if the bait is chosen correctly. Do not use big spoons. From this, the size of the catch will not increase. In autumn, perch prefers to hunt for small prey, so a small twister or a small vibrational spoon-bait will do just fine. Not bad, the predator reacts to the silicone vibrotail. It is better if it will be a bright natural color, but in no way poisonous. Such colors are certainly not designed for this type of fishing, such as autumn perch fishing. The bait for this predator should resemble the fry or insect as much as possible.

Casting and basic methods of spinning wiring for perch

The casting of the tackle is carried out with a sharp swing of the rod forward with the preliminary opening of the fixing bracket. It is desirable that the lure fall slightly beyond the intended site. This will make it as close to a pack of predators as possible.

In order to catch perch in October for spinning was the most effective, it is important to choose the type of fishing. If you could visually locate the flock, you need to cast, wait until the bait drops to the bottom, and begin smooth even wiring. No sharp movements or pull-ups do not need. This can frighten the perch.

If the predator is not visible, this does not mean that it is not. Most likely, he is waiting for his victim in ambush. To entice him, you should cast into the intended place and intermittent harsh wiring to try to irritate him and force him to attack the bait. A lure or a wobbler should not go along with it on the bottom, it is better to keep the bait in the middle water horizon.

Summer mormyshka for perch

Mormyshka is for the most part a winter tackle, but it is also successfully used in other seasons. It is a small lead or tungsten figure resembling an insect, in which a hook is stuck. Some models of mormys are painted in bright colors that attract fish, which allows them to be used for fishing without bait. But in our case it is better to use the most common lead pellet with a hook.

Catching a perch on a mormyshke in the autumn involves the use of fishing rods 3-4 m long. Since fishing is carried out from shore, this size will be enough to successfully harvest coastal thickets and clams.

Installation of summer mormyshka for perch

The rod can be anything, albeit wooden. The only requirement to it is a rigid top. A piece of aluminum wire 5-7 cm long is attached to it with an insulating tape or an adhesive tape. At the end of it, a nipple tube of the same size is put on the end, beforehand passing a line through it. The nipple forms a kind of nod that will signal the bite.

Leskov will need no more than 3 m, since fishing will be conducted almost at a plumb. You can tie it to the tip of the rod in any convenient way. Mormyshka is mounted on a leash or even on the main line - at the discretion of an angler. The way it is tied does not play a special role in the outcome of fishing.

Bait and the principle of fishing for mormyshku

As bait, you can use pieces of red rubber, the same color thread, but best of all, of course, bloodworm - the favorite food of the perch. With such a bait, the catch is guaranteed.

The method of fishing for mormish is quite simple. Casting is done over a distance equal to the length of the rod. The rod itself can be mounted on the holder or, in case of active biting, be in the hands of the fisherman. To attract the attention of a predator, you can play with a tackle, pulling it up with a small amplitude up and down.

Floating tackle on perch in autumn

Catching of perch in October can also be carried out with an ordinary float fishing rod. This classic object is easy to equip for predator fishing. This will require:

• The rod is 3.5-5 m long, fast or slow;
• Simple inertia-free coil of 1500-2000;
• The main line is 0.25-0.3 mm long, 50-100 m long;
• Line for the leash with a thickness of 0.15-0.2 mm;
• Float (better for sliding equipment);
• Cargo (weight is selected under the float);
• Hook (better single, No. 4-7).

Installation of a float rod for perch

The rigging is mounted on the same principle as the spinning: the line is passed through the rings and wound onto the spool of the coil. In total, it needs up to 100 m.

On the main line is attached a sliding float with a single-point attachment and an upper limiter in the form of a rubber bead. The weight of the load is determined by a preliminary test in standing water. He should not drown the float below the antenna.

The leash is knitted by the "loop in a loop" method, and its end is equipped with a hook. It can be either single, double or triple. If it is supposed to catch a small perch, it is better to use a conventional hook. Doubles or tees should be used for fishing on trophy specimens.

Baits for float equipment

For bait, you can use a bloodworm or an odor. Great, if you can catch the fry and bait it on the hook. It is better to plant the nostrils, one or both lips.

Fishing for perch on a fishing rod with float equipment is carried out in the usual way. The cast is made, the tackle is tightened until the line is in a stretched state. The rod is mounted on the holder. Gear is controlled visually. If the float pointed to a bite, a cut is made and the catches the catch.
