This fish belongs to the carp family, which means that the same gear is suitable for catching it as for carp fishing. As a rule, these are powerful rods equipped with a powerful reel on which the required amount of fishing line of a certain thickness is wound. Very often, after bites of grass carp, fishermen have broken rods. Therefore, the equipment of gear should be approached responsibly. If bites of large individuals are expected, then it is better to use a “braid”, with a thickness of 0,3 mm and hooks of sizes 10-12. An ordinary bell can be used as a bite signaling device, although few people use it lately.
Catching grass carp on a spring
The spring is a kind of feeder designed for bottom equipment. As a rod, it is better to use modern, feeder blanks. They are convenient in that the bite is transmitted to the tip of the rod, which is the bite signaling device. It is better to bait foam balls on the hooks so that they do not get lost at the bottom, but are in the water column. Alternatively, this is a combination of a foam ball with some kind of bait. In this case, you need to make sure that the hooks with the bait are raised up from the bottom.
Other types are also suitable as feeders, such as the “method”, “nipple” or ordinary cylindrical or square feeders.
Catching cupid on a float rod
The use of float gear is possible if the subtleties of catching this fish are taken into account. The main condition is that the bait is at a certain depth, which is controlled with the help of foam and a pellet, which is part of the equipment. The bait should be 5-20 cm above the bottom level, which is determined experimentally in the process of fishing.
Catching carp on technoplankton
With the advent of technoplankton, it has become much easier to catch grass carp. What types of baits were not used when catching it, given the fact that grass carp is a herbivorous fish. Technoplankton barrels can be used for any type of fishing: both bottom fishing and float fishing. Hooks, as in previous cases, are supplied with foam balls or a combination of foam with nozzles of various origins. Once in the water, technoplankton creates a cloud of nutrients that attract grass carp. Very often, fishermen leave their hooks naked, but disguised in a barrel of technoplankton. In the process of absorbing technoplankton, grass carp also sucks in hooks, which it is unlikely to get rid of.
Catching grass carp on boilies
For catching grass carp, boilies are used, including hair rigs. Either floating boilies, or peas or corn are attached to the hair. If corn or peas are used, then there is a need to combine such baits with foam. In this case, it is necessary to observe the sequence of the location of the bait and the foam. Styrofoam is planted last, so that the hair with corn or peas seems to stick out of the ground.
