Tackle is the most important for successful fishing. Before purchasing this equipment, you need to heed the advice of experienced users or a sales assistant, as it is easy to get lost in the abundance of angler products. You will need a lot of equipment for your hobby, so get ready to spend.
The most versatile and necessary thing for fishing is a float rod. She is loved by many for its convenience and simplicity. A float rod consists of a rod, line, float, lead, lead and hook.
Choose a rod of high quality, durable and lightweight. It should be balanced and fitted with line guides. The small hook plays a big role when fishing, because it is he who should hold your prey. Choose something that is sharp, sturdy and discreet. Try to bend the hook, a good tackle will spring. When choosing, consider the size of the expected catch. For small fish take # 1-3; for roach, bleak, crucian carp, small bream - No. 4-6; for large bream, carp, asp, carp - No. 7-10; to catch pike perch, pike, catfish and other large fish buy No. 10-15.
The fishing line also requires close attention, because it must also withstand your catch. Do not use old gear as it becomes fragile over time. The line should be invisible in the water, without kinks or irregularities along its entire length. This tackle also needs to be bought by size (diameter).
To catch small fish, take the diameter of the line from 0, 10 to 0, 15 mm; for crucian carp, ruff, bleak, perch - from 0.15 to 0.18 mm; for larger specimens of the same species - from 0.25 to 0.3 mm; for carp, pike perch, grass carp - from 0.35 to 0.4 mm; for catfish, silver carp, barbel, grass carp - from 0.5 to 1 mm. Choose the color of this inventory as well. Use clear, colorless fishing line during the day; dark blue, green, light brown and gray products are available for night fishing.
For a float rod, you will also need reels. A small product will not harm the maneuverability and lightness of the rod, you will wind the line manually. But for catching large fish you will need reels without inertia, they will help to draw out large prey.
Fishing success can also depend on little things like a leash. It protects the line from breaks, distributes the load evenly, and makes the hook less visible. For a leash, take the diameter of the line less than the main one by 0, 10 mm, its length should be 20-25 centimeters.
The most popular type of lead is regular lead pellet, which can be simply clamped around the line with your fingers. You can buy this tackle in the shape of a spindle or a stem.
Floats are needed so that the hook is at the depth you need and so that you can see if the fish is biting. Choose them, too, based on the size of the catch. Light and small floats - for "little things", they are used near the coast, complete with a rod of 2-4 meters. If the water is calm, take the product with the least resistance, catch perch, roach, bream and crucian carp. If you are seeing strong currents, choose a keg float. For long-distance casts, special gear with sufficient weight is needed.
When you learn how to handle a float rod, consider purchasing a spinning rod. They are used to catch predatory fish with a moving bait. For spinning rods, you also need to pick up gear.
