Spring fishing on the crucian carp

Springtime, when the water warms to a temperature of 12-14 degrees above zero, in the coastal zones of lakes and rivers, overgrown with reeds, you can well and gladly hunt for crucian carp.

It is established that the hollow structure of the reed stalks has the ability to accumulate solar heat, so the water around them is two degrees warmer than in the open. For a person, this temperature difference seems insignificant, but for the inhabitants of the reservoir it is of great importance. In such places, life in the aquatic environment begins two or three weeks earlier, which has a significant impact on the activity of carp in search of food, and spring fishing at this time can always be successful. It is only natural that the sun with uneven uniformity illuminates the coastal areas. For this reason, the crucian makes migration in shallow water with reed beds. It should be noted that spring fishing, carried out in a shady place, will not bring much luck, and on the lighted site, on the contrary, it promises good luck.

Fishing for crucian in the spring has its own characteristics: for example, you found a well-lit open place between thickets of cane 2-2.5 meters wide, and you have a natural question - in which place will the best bait yield? From the experience of professional fishermen it is known that crucian is very strongly attached to a certain temperature regime of water, a forage base from natural algae, and no bait will move it beyond this place. It follows that the crucian depends very strongly on the reed thickets and, making a sortie 20-40 cm from them, grabs the nozzle and pulls it back to its usual place.

Nothing special is the spring fishing on the Volga and other lowland rivers, the coastal zones of which, like on lakes, are covered with thickets of cattail, reeds and reeds. And even if the fishermen use the same bait and attachment, spring fishing in the reed area and in the open area has exactly the opposite results. What should contain the bait in order to make this fish leave its place in the thickets? There is a simple, but quite effective way: you need to take the cuts of a dense fabric (pantyhose is quite suitable). Fill with live worms with good activity, tightly tie and throw near the thickets. Moving around, worms in the water create vibrations that entice carp from the reeds.

Now it's up to the nozzle. What to apply, so that the spring fishing will not bring disappointments? The optimal option is a complex nozzle made of two small spikes and a small worm. A good result is the replacement of maggots with larvae of burdock moth. A seductive attachment for a large crucian is a chic in his house, but here there is one trick: the piercing of the crochet must be done so that the head of the larva leaves and can not get back. As in the rivers and lakes, where there is a submerged shell on the depth, the larva of the bug beetle with the worm will be an excellent attachment for the crucian carp.
