Just like that, cancer will not climb into the bait. He needs to be interested in some kind of bait. If this succeeds, then several dozen crayfish can be collected in a trap. Despite the fact that crayfish can also be caught with a fishing rod, this is not a very serious occupation that can get on the nerves of any angler. The fact is that it is very difficult to catch cancer with a fishing rod, since it is difficult to produce an effective bite.
Crayfish are omnivorous and will not refuse any bait, especially spoiled meat or fish. This means that their favorite food will be the most effective. Cancer is also well caught on canned peas. You can use the bait as follows: take a piece of gauze and pour a jar of canned peas on it, then tie the gauze so that the peas do not spill out and fix it in a trap in this form. If crayfish are found in a pond or lake, then they will feel the bait very quickly. This method is also available for winter crayfishing.
Many fishermen advise using makukha or black bread as bait. At the same time, being in different conditions, cancer reacts differently to different types of baits. And yet, baits of animal origin that are not the first freshness, like dried frogs and fish, work best. Alternatively, you can use various food waste, as well as the insides of pets or the head and intestines of a herring. If you buy spoiled canned food in the store and make several holes in the jar, then such a bait may turn out to be the most effective.
You can always find spoiled fish near the shore, which is ideal for catching crayfish. If you really want to catch them, since fishing was not entirely successful, then not far from the coast, directly into the water, you need to throw out rotten food waste. Some time will pass and several pieces of crayfish will gather in this area. So that later it was easy to catch them with your hands, the waste should be thrown away in a shallow place. Having found that the crayfish have gathered and began to try the waste, you can start catching them. Moreover, you need to do this quickly, since they are not as slow in the water as it might seem. It’s better if you do it together.
Caught fish can be used as bait. To do this, the fish is left in the sun. After a while, it will dry up a bit and can be used as bait. If there is a desire, then you can build something like a fishing rod. Take a wooden stick and tie a rope to it, and dried fish to the rope. After that, this primitive, primitive tackle is lowered into the water along with the bait. You don’t have to have a hook to catch a crab. The crayfish will cling to the fish with claws, after which it is carefully pulled out of the water. You should not make sudden movements, otherwise the cancer will throw the bait.
Crayfish fishing is a very interesting activity. If you need a little crayfish, for example, for dinner or lunch, then you can catch them with your hands, if there is an assumption about their location in the reservoir.
