Tackle for bream

You can catch fish in many ways, for which you can use a variety of components. An experienced fisherman knows that it is better to collect catchy tackle for bream on your own, while initially you need to decide on the method of catching. This representative of cyprinids is not difficult to find both on rivers with a small current and on reservoirs with stagnant water, while it is better to use bottom types of gear to catch it. We will study the subtleties of the collection and the features of fishing for this or that tackle in more detail.

Types of gear used

Any equipment for catching bream is not difficult, to assemble with your own hands you need to have minimal skills: be able to knit the simplest fishing knots and choose all the components correctly.

Anglers with experience recommend catching a cunning inhabitant of a reservoir using the following methods:

• float gear;
• feeder;
• donkey;
• on the ring;
• sideboard.

Alternative types are also used, among other things, they have proven themselves well:

• makushatnik;
• pacifier;
• hair montage on bream;
• elastic.

A snack will also bring a good result, but not everyone wants to use it.

Next, it is worth dwelling in more detail on each of the above options, find out the features of the collection, and only then choose the most appropriate for yourself.

Donka

This type of gear will help to catch not only bream, any kind of fish that prefers living at considerable depths can be caught by it. The main feature is any desired number of leashes with hooks, while feeding is carried out with balls from the hand. The gear collection goes like this:

• when choosing a blank, preference should be given to rods of the Crocodile type, their test indicators usually have a maximum of 250 g. But the length is chosen purely individually. Usually, rods 2,1-2,4 m long are used for fishing in medium-sized water areas; for large reservoirs, a rod of at least 3 m is needed.
• A good power coil is purchased, inertialess coils have no competitors in this. For this type of equipment, options with a spool of 2500-3000 or more are used. The number of bearings can be different, 2 inside and 1 in the line layer will be enough, but a larger figure is welcome.
• As a basis these days, it is preferable to stay on a braided cord, its thickness should be at least 0,18 mm. You can put a fishing line, but its diameter should be an order of magnitude thicker. The best option is rainbow from 0,35 mm.
• An important element that distinguishes the donkey from the feeder is the sinker. It is knitted at the very end of the base, but the weight is selected depending on the characteristics of the fished reservoir: for standing water and 40 g it will be enough, at least an 80-tigram option will help keep the tackle on the course.
• Leashes are knitted to the base in front of the sinker, their number can reach 10 pieces. They are located at a distance of at least 30 cm from each other, and the length of each often reaches one and a half meters.
• Particular attention is paid to hooks, they are selected for the bait used and in such a way that they fit in the mouth of a potential victim.

With the help of donks, they fish for shallow shores with shallows, it is the casting distance that will allow you to catch fish from considerable depths.

Feeder

The feeder is, in fact, the same donk, but a feeder is additionally included in the installation. This equipment is used for bream throughout the year in open water, freezing is an obstacle for this type of fishing. The feeder is used for fishing from the coastline, it is not difficult to assemble everything, but there are still some tricks.

Feeder gear for bream fishing do this:

• The first step is to choose a rod, not everything is as simple as it seems at first glance. The length is considered an important criterion, it is selected depending on the size of the fished area. On small lakes and river backwaters, which usually have a lot of bushes and trees on the shore, it is more convenient to use options up to 3,3 m. Reservoirs and large rivers are not very good for such a feeder length. In order to catch a large body of water, the blank must be longer, at least 3.9 m. Test indicators are also important, products up to 60-80 g are enough for standing water, but for sites on rivers, the minimum weight used is 80 g, but the maximum often reaches 180 g .
• The reel for the feeder is significant, with its help the casting distance of the assembled tackle is regulated. For this option, a non-inertial type of product is used, and it is better to choose options with a baitrunner. The size of the spool for feeder fishing is used from 3000 or more, this will allow you to wind a sufficient amount of warp for long-distance casts.
• The basis of the tackle can be either a cord or a monofilament fishing line. But with the thicknesses you need to understand in more detail. The cord used for collecting gear must have at least 4 weaves, while the diameter will need to be from 0,16 mm for the lake and up to 0,35 mm for the river. The fishing line for bream is selected according to the same characteristics as for the donkey, at least 0,3 mm thick, but the maximum is regulated by potential trophies, or rather their size.
• A feeder is attached to the base, and it will deliver the food to the right place. For lakes and bays without a current, ordinary watermelons are used. Their weight can be up to 20 g, but metal options are used for fishing on the river, while the weight is taken more, starting from 60 g. The capacity is average, too much food in one place does not always have a positive effect on the bite.
• Leashes are already knitted behind the feeder, for their manufacture you need a fishing line or cord with breaking rates a couple of kilos less than that of the base.
• The hooks should fit the bait, the sting should only peek out a little, and the bait itself should be in the middle of the bend.

Do not forget about the accessories used, it is better to refuse shiny products altogether, but it is better to choose discontinuous indicators with a minimum size.

Floating rod

You can also catch bream on a float, for this they use blanks 4-5 m long, but it is better to make tackle stronger. The main characteristics are best represented in the idea of ​​​​a table:

The coil can be put both inertialess and ordinary.

Sideboards

These gear for catching bream are used from a boat or from ice, they are distinguished from other options by the following features:

• blank length up to a meter;
• can be fished both with and without a reel, while the base would be stored on the reel;
• a nod is a signaling indicator of a bite.

They equip a blank for fishing in winter with a base of a smaller diameter, a maximum of only 0,16 mm for a monk, but for a cord, 0,1 will be enough. All other components are selected according to the above characteristics.

tackle ring

Tackle is used for bream in the summer, while fishing is carried out only from boats. There are features in the collection, we will analyze them in more detail.

Catching on the ring has long been familiar to bream hunters, this method was used by our grandfathers and quite successfully. You need to complete it like this:

• the sideboard is equipped with a base 0,25-0,3 mm thick, at the end they must put a leash from a monk with a diameter of 0,15;
• separately they make a large capacity feeder, it can also be a bag with a load.

On a fishing line with a diameter of 0,45-0,5, the feeder is lowered to the bottom under the very boat. Additionally, for collection, you will need a lead winding ring with cuts made in special ways, it is through them that the base from the bead and the fishing line holding the feeder are wound. The cut allows you to place the leash exactly in the cloud of turbidity, which is so attractive to bream. This type of gear is used from early spring to late autumn, until the ice covers the reservoir.

But no one can answer how to catch bream on a spinning rod, since this type of ichthyite is peaceful. This tackle will not be able to attract the attention of a cunning resident, he will definitely bypass it.

Alternative rigs

The direct relationship of the cunning inhabitant of the reservoir to carp allows you to use the same tackle for bream in the summer as for catching other members of the family. It is inherent in the absorption of turbidity with particles of food, so it can be caught on boilies, a makuchatka, a nipple, and even on an elastic band. It is these species that are considered alternative among anglers with experience, they are used when there is no bite at all for the above-described bites, and a donk is needed to cast the tackle.

There are several ways to attract the attention of bream in water bodies:

• fishing on the crown, while the equipment is identical to carp;
• hair rigging for bream is also popular, often bringing good results, especially in early autumn;
• the nipple for bream is used both home-made and factory, the latter are called banjo;
• gum has the same equipment as on crucian carp or carp.

More details about each of the alternative equipment can be found on our website. Articles are specially designed for a detailed study of a single topic individually.

The tackle used to catch bream both on the river and on the lakes is quite diverse. The correct selection of components and skillful collection will definitely become the key to playing the trophy. Each option must first be tried, only practice will allow you to decide what exactly is suitable for each of the participants personally.
