Ποια πετονιά είναι καλύτερη για χειμερινή αλιεία;

Harsh Russian winter is no reason for keen fishermen to sit at home. We pick up warm equipment, tackle and go ahead – to entice the wary fish to bite. The temperature regime dictates its own rules. And fishing line for winter fishing should be chosen according to certain criteria.

  1. Strength with a small diameter. We have surveyed our experts, all of them put durability (including knots) in the first place. However, the fishing line should be thin. First of all, the fish is “capricious”. It is distrustful of the proposed baits, looking at the “treat” before the attack. The thicker and more noticeable the fishing line, the more likely that the fish will be frightened. Secondly, in winter in the course of light, miniature baits, and too thick diameter will simply spoil the game. So, a good line for winter fishing – thin and strong. The diameter can be neglected in the spring time, when the fish feeds intensely and greedily before spawning. The standard diameter for winter is 0.1 – 0.12 mm. The exception is catching on a reaper, then you can use a fishing line with a thickness of 0,35 mm.
  2. In second place is the lack of memory. The fishing line should not twist. This property is also relevant in summer, but when fishing from the ice, the coils on the monofilament simply will not give full control over the bait. It is important this quality and when catching pikeperch. In winter, it occurs at a considerable depth. Therefore, it is for hunting the fang predator fishing line is preferable rigid, but without the “memory effect” to feel the nibbles. For other species of fish is allowed to use a softer monofilament.
  3. The third point can be highlighted imperceptibility. Yes, it depends on the diameter. But in this case we are talking about the transparency of water in winter in reservoirs. Therefore, for fishing from the ice is popular fluorocarbon and fishing lines coated with it.
  4. The fourth quality is resistance to abrasion. Logically, when you pull the fish, the line often rubs against the ice. In addition, scuffs on the monofilament will make it more visible to potential prey, which is a disadvantage.
  5. The fifth point is hydrophobicity or, simply put, the ability not to “drink water”. For this reason, monofilament is always preferable to braided cord. No matter how dense the weave of the threads, still water molecules can penetrate into the microscopic space between them. Some manufacturers use special impregnations.

So, the main qualities that will facilitate the choice of fishing line for winter fishing, we listed:

  • thinness and strength (ability to hold a knot)
  • lack of “memory” effect
  • imperceptibility
  • resistance to abrasion
  • hydrophobicity

However, all of them will not matter if in practice the properties of monofilament, declared by the manufacturer, do not correspond to reality. Without practice, “by eye” to check the fishing line is impossible. How not to make a mistake? Listen to the experience of those who prefer to spend their free time in winter on the reservoirs.

Alexei Belyakov:

Among my favorites: Salmo Micron and Trabucco T-Force (Winter Ice). Micron is more expensive because it is calibrated. Trabucco is durable (although its diameter is larger). They hold knots perfectly well and do not curl.”

Vitaly Kim:

I use Colmic fishing line. What does it like? It corresponds to the diameter. And the strength corresponds to the specified.”

Ivan Kashitsin:

Even in winter I continue to catch on spinning. That’s why I use Varivas Super Conductor and Varivas Kobun Master braided cords. In general, there is no such notion as “braided cord for winter”. But thanks to a very dense weave, these cords absorb water poorly, which makes the rings freeze a little less.”

Want more options? Then here are Spinningline’s top picks for the best winter monofilament fishing lines:

  • Salmo Grand Ice Magic. (Strong on knots and elastic in the cold).
  • Varivas Super Hera Harisu Nylon. (Minimal stretch and softness. Not afraid of abrasion and holds the knot well).
  • Cralusso Hooklength Prestige. (No memory, absolute transparency in water, durability).
  • Akkoi Mask Frozen. (Elasticity at all temperatures, complete absence of memory effect, abrasion-resistant, invisible in water, durability).
  • Freeway Hyper Light. (Well calibrated, transparent, no memory effect).
  • Colmic Mimetix. (“Holds” knots, low stretch, no memory. Additional protective coating Fluorine Process).
  • Trabucco T-Force Winter Ice. (Absolute transparency, silicone coating against freezing, durability).
