Features of fishing from the shore on spinning

What is fishing from the shore on spinning

This type of fishing has long been known not only to sportsmen fishermen, but also to amateurs. Most spinningists this is how they began to master the catching of predatory fish on artificial lures. Therefore, everything seems to be clear and understandable here, but, as everywhere, there are certain nuances and patterns, knowledge and understanding of which makes catching fish much easier. This applies not only to the selection of gear, but also to the correct choice of water body, and especially the local place of fishing, taking into account various factors.

Types of shore spinning

Catching spinning from the shore can be divided into different directions, each of which requires an individual selection of tackle and fishing conditions:

• jig – to this type I refer to the classic jig fishing with the use of soft silicone baits and foam fish, as well as all sorts of spaced jigs;
• wobblers – here we mean both pike fishing for large minnows and chub fishing for microcrackers;
• spinning fishing for blades;
• microjig – catching predatory and non-predatory fish on miniature soft baits.

Of course, this is a fairly narrow division and each direction can be divided into a greater number of species and subspecies, but this is a topic for separate articles. Here I want to talk about the general principles and nuances, if possible maximizing the disclosure of each spinning direction.

How to catch, where to catch, on what to catch

Jig fishing

Classic jig fishing is gaining popularity due to the simplicity of learning the basics and relatively inexpensive equipment. A jig rod for shore fishing should ideally be long – 2.5 – 3 meters, as the throwing distance plays a big role. Stroi Extra Fast, i.e. “stubby” blank with a playing top, which is necessary for the animation of the bait and which allows you to track the tip of the bait or the fall of the load on the bottom. Jig is the most convenient to get fish from the depth. Since the jig rigging has excellent flight characteristics, you can cover not only coastal holes and coastal dumps, but also deep places that are at a decent distance from the shore. You need to be very careful when choosing a braided cord. Firstly, a quality jig cord greatly increases the sensory power of the tackle. Secondly, the thickness of the cord depends on the weight of the used sinker, on the current the difference in the weight of the sinker can reach more than 10 gr. when using a thicker cord. Jig is a universal tackle, so in some cases, using large baits with a load of a few grams, you can catch pike even on small, hardened micro rivers and in overgrown lakes.

Leash jigs:

And other similar ones also belong to jig tackle, but have their own specialization. First, the rod – it should also be sensitive, but the line is no longer “stake” and Fast or Regular Fast to increase the distance of throwing. Such jigs are used in difficult to pass jig bogged places, on shoals or with a fast current.

The main objects of catching on jig and leash jigs will be pikeperch, pike, perch, yaz, less often chub and stud. Given that some leash jigs will not be able to use a leash and pike catching must be very careful that she did not cut the tackle.

Spinning fishing from the shore on wobblers

Catching fish from the shore on wobblers is interesting and diverse, it gives the opportunity to cover different underwater horizons and catch any predatory fish. The main difference when fishing from a boat is the increased risk of parting with your favorite, expensive and catchable bait because of a snag. If on the boat you can swim to the place of snagging and release the wobbler unhook, then from the shore it helps in exceptional cases. Sometimes, if you really want to fish in an unknown place, it makes sense to first throw inexpensive and not particularly valuable bait, which is not a pity to part with, to check the place for snags, nets and other things.

One of the main types of fishing in this area is the jerk animation of minnow-type wobblers. The rod for “twitching” should have a number of parameters. First, the length – despite the fact that when fishing from the shore the distance of throwing plays a big role, to increase it at the expense of the length of the rod is not possible, because with a large length loses the accuracy of animation. This parameter everyone selects individually, but mostly “twitching” rods have a length of 1.8 – 2.2 meters. Secondly, the structure of the rod. Since the jerk animation is quite a lot of pressure on the blank, the extra fast is difficult to set the wobbler the right movements because of the fact that only the tip works, the ideal would be Regular Fast, so that when animating the wobbler blank worked on the entire length, also this moment increases the distance of throwing.

In addition, the rod should be rigid, so that the blank is loaded during the jerk, but did not fail. The main object of catching on the jerk animation of minnow wobblers is, of course, pike, in the bycatch of all others. Thus fish can be caught in any place, at any depth. It is only necessary to pick up the bait with the appropriate depth. The exception is a fast current, it is difficult to achieve the necessary animation of the bait at the jerk wiring and it is better to use even or stop&go.

The second popular type of fishing for wobblers is fishing for crankbaits and sheads – these are lures that have an excellent independent game and most of them do not require additional animation. Therefore, the stiffness of the rod should be softer than that of a twitching rod, the line is also Regular Fast.

Crankbaits are most relevant when catching chub, yazya, zherekh, pikeperch on micro rivers and coastal shoals with rolls. Periodically good perch, especially on dip variants. Sheds are best suited for fishing coastal holes and dumps in search of pikeperch and perch.

Also separately can be allocated catching on surface and subsurface baits such as poppers, volkers and minnows with a depth of up to 20 cm. Such baits are great for catching pike and perch in shallow areas of rivers and overgrown lakes. The rod for such baits requires twitching, as the main animation is set jerk wiring.

Catching fish spinning from the shore on the trollers

The most popular and the simplest type of spinning fishing, which came to us since Soviet times. In many fishing spots for a long time it is quite difficult to coax trophy pike on blades. And in remote and inaccessible corners of our homeland, where there is no fishing pressure and the fish is not so sophisticated, blades remain the main lures of the local population with few exceptions.

In central Russia, you need to be sophisticated to catch well on these baits. Large oscillating blades are mainly used to catch pike in all sorts of places, there are blades, unhooked for catching in overgrown areas. Fidget spinners are most often used for catching small pike and perch. The rod in this case is better to take a long, under 3 meters, soft Regular Fast. The main key point is the range of throwing. Blades are not stubborn lures, so the rigidity will be unnecessary.

But on all reservoirs still does not lose the relevance of catching studs on pilkers, narrow runnels with the best throwing distance. Often above the blades tie a wabik – a hook with a down. The roach is sought on sandy spits, stony rolls and even over pits, where it likes to hunt on the surface. In hardened places or in places with shallow depths, it is better to use pilkers with a wide body, which are less deepened. Since the stud is a cautious fish and large specimens rarely let the angler get close to him, the throwing and long rod is the most key point of the equipment.

Separate from the classic oscillators with twisters and pilkers go myrokolebalki and microvertushki for ultralight fishing. On such lures can catch predatory and non-predatory fish. Conditions for such fishing are quite diverse. All kinds of lakes and reservoirs, calm plain rivers and mountain streams with trout and grayling, trout paid ponds. Everywhere it will be possible to persuade fish on such tackle. For this kind of fishing the light trout sticks are most suitable, having a Regular Fast medium stiffness.

Microjig fishing

A versatile and exciting way of spinning predatory and non-predatory fish. In micro-jigging the lightest and most delicate tackle and jigs are used. In this way you can catch absolutely any fish, in any place and on any body of water. Whether it is a micro river, bank dump or a vast sandbank. Minus one – you should not even think about a large trophy. But it is compensated by a large number of nibbles and their diversity.

Rods for microjigging have one fundamental difference, which is the type of tip, which are of two kinds:

Tubular is the classic hollow tip of a spinning rod, which is a single unit with the blank. Such a rod is much easier to catch on the current and animate the bait with jerks, as well as such a rod has a greater sensorics. The disadvantage of such a rod is the cost. Since it is difficult to achieve the necessary delicacy of ultra-light tackle and sensitive work with micro baits. Solid – it is a monolithic inlay with an admixture of fiberglass. Such a tip visually responds perfectly to any nibble, any touch of the lure with the bottom or any obstacle.

What attracts spinning fishing from the shore

Spinning fishing, in fact, is fishing with artificial lures. This is exactly the way when the angler catches fish, rather than the fish biting on its own. Spinning fishing from the shore is active fishing, sometimes you have to go a dozen kilometers in search of a long-awaited trophy. Such fishing will never give boredom and will give a lot of bright emotions.
