La pêche à la mormyshka. Première partie. Que faut-il faire à l'avance ?

Successful fishing requires not only luck and skill, but also careful preparation. In our article, we have collected the main nuances concerning the issues of winter fishing for mormyshki, first of all with attachments. Of course, personal experience and practice can not be replaced. However, those who are just beginning to master this type of fishing, without theory can not do without theory. Let’s start with the first stage of preparation.

I. Prepare fishing tackle for fishing with mormyshka.

Snasti on a choice

In the cold tying miniature mormyshki – an occupation is not pleasant. If possible, you can prepare in advance several rods with different montages. Facilitate the work of the fisherman can hookovyaz, so as not to suffer in the cold with small knots.

The rod.

Catching fish on mormyshka can imply the presence of different rods.

– Size and intended prey.

1. More massive models with a handle will be suitable for bream. This underwater inhabitant is cautious. When hunting him, it is allowed to make pauses, leave the bait for some time on the bottom or in the water column.
2. The most common preference is given to light “balalaika”, which are convenient for walking fishing. Such rudilniki are especially well suited for winter fishing for perch or roach. In this case, it is assumed an active search and constant animation of the bait to arouse the interest of fish.

Balalaikas come with separate handles. In sport fishing, modifications are more often used, where the reel and handle are a single unit.

Everyone selects a model for himself. One of the criteria is the comfortable location of the handle in the hand. The material of the fishing rod should not be afraid of frost, blows on ice. The whip should not be too rigid. The ease of rotation is important for the reel. Now more about the nuances.

– Reel-handle.

1. If there is any stamp on the plastic body, then there will be burrs. Run your finger over the surface and be sure to grind all detected roughness, for example, with abrasive paper.
2. It is recommended to cut a fleece washer under the adjusting bolt/screw. Why is this necessary? If you do not finish the screw, the soft insert will serve as a kind of friction. Even on a tiny bait sometimes bites big fish. In case of sharp jerks, the washer will help prevent the line from breaking.
3. Champion of the Chelyabinsk region on sport mormyshka, Evgeny Zamyatin, gives this advice. The inner part of the body can be “lubricated” by scratching the bobbin with an ordinary graphite pencil.
4. Collecting the bobbin after all manipulations, make sure that the fishing line is not jammed between the parts.

Nod

It is considered to be the main part of the winter fishing rod, as the animation of the bait depends on it. It also acts as a signaling device for timid nibbles. It is made of lavsan, polycarbonate, even flat spring steel. The first material is advised most often.

1. The nod should not be too soft or stiff. The nods have a test range. It is selected under the weight of the mormyshka. Under the weight of the mormyshka, a correctly selected piece bends by about 30 degrees.
2. Absence of the “memory” effect. The nod (as well as the whip) should not deform under loads.
3. Bright, noticeable in the snow coloring.
4. It is possible to meet the opinion that the nod is selected for the fish that is planned to catch.

Line

Size:

Fishing for mormyshka implies the use of thin fishing lines. The optimum (most commonly used) fishing line diameter is 0.08-0.10 mm. Beginners for mastering mormyshchnyh fishing can put 0.12 mm.

There are cases when the reduction of the size of the mormyshka and monofilament thickness with complete passivity of the fish suddenly brought a catch, so you should not neglect thin lines. As written above, you can equip several rods with different lines and mormyshki.

Memory:

Negatively on the wiring will affect the so-called “memory”. The fishing line should be elastic enough not to “memorize” the shape and not to twist. In transparent winter water will be invisible fluorocarbon. In general, the choice of monofil for winter fishing is devoted to a separate article.

Tip. After a heavy, forced fishing it is recommended to tie the mormyshki.

II. How to choose a mormyshka?

A separate article is devoted to the choice of winter mormyshki. Let’s dwell on the main points. Mormyshki can be designed to work together with the nozzle and without (mothless).

1. The nozzle models

The task of bait mormyshki – to deliver the bait to a sufficient depth to the fish. When using such models, the potential prey is primarily attracted by the treat itself. That’s why errors in animation are not so critical. Often nibbles occur even on a standing mormyshka (especially when it comes to passive and capricious fish). Therefore, beginners are more rational to learn exactly using baits.

Shape of the mormyshka

It is impossible to give an unambiguous answer. Each fisherman has his own experience and his own conclusions. We can only cite common opinions:

For example, the curious perch likes spherical or faceted, glittering and bright models.

The roach likes miniature spherical and drop-shaped mormyshki.

Bream – elongated forms: ovsinki, cloves, uralki.

In addition, it is believed that the curved shape of the muzzle, such as a banana, is more convenient for nibbling – such a “treat” fish more often swallows the whole.

Hook

According to most pros, the hook for mormyshka should be sharp and thin. How to check the sharpness? It is enough to run the sting of the hook on the nail. The hook should “stick” to the nail and not slip off it. The sting should pierce the moth when you touch it. In this way the bait will not be destroyed.

2. no bait

A separate conversation – this is catching on no-settle mormys or mothless mormys. They sometimes include the so-called “devils”, “goats”, “witches”, “nailballs”, “kosheglaziki”, etc. Catching on mothless pots requires a certain skill and preparation. Here everything depends on a properly tuned rod, the variety of wiring. Since this material is aimed at beginners, let’s focus on the technique of catching a mormyshka with an attachment.

Matériau

Tungsten mormyshki

Tungsten is a metal with high density. Therefore, mormyski of it with small dimensions sink faster, more convenient when wiring on the current and depth. The most common of tungsten muzzles are all sorts of poles, as well as nails, kosheglaziki.

Lead muzzles (and alloys)

From lead, most often made of chertiks, goats. Lead compared to the same tungsten is light. Accordingly, a mormyshka from it turns out to be more voluminous than from tungsten. Their main feature – a smoother, non-aggressive game, which may be more like passive, capricious fish.

III. Equipment and clothing

Even a novice winter fisherman is unlikely to forget about the rod, spare mormyshki and nozzles. However, it is worth reminding about some elements of equipment.

1. equipment

You can’t go anywhere without a drill in winter. Even if the place is familiar, you always need a lot of holes. Knives in the process can become loose. You need a screwdriver to tighten them. Spare knives are needed in case of breakage or blunting. This is especially true when measuring the depth in an unfamiliar place. You can simply not guess, hit the bottom of the shoal with a drill and plant the knives.

Necessary accessory. Needed to clean the hole from the shuga. Flexible plastic shumovka is more mobile and easier to clean from ice. There are professional anglers who prefer titanium models. Choose what you like.

When fishing for mormyshka in winter, it is rational to use thin fishing lines. That is why it is impossible to pull out of the water the desired large trophy without an additional device.

No one is safe from snags. Mormyshki are not very expensive tackle, but you do not want to lose them either.

If the fishing takes place in a strong frost, the larvae can freeze in an ordinary plastic moth. A container made of foam plastic will be optimal. You can take care of thermal insulation in advance. Some fishermen tie a string to the hoe and wear it under a jacket. There are models with attachment to the knee or palm.

It matters not only the capacity, but also the height. It is selected individually, so that a person can sit comfortably. If the box is too high, then you will have to sit for long hours in the overlay. The back will get tired. Ideally, when fishing for mormyshka in winter, the box should also be wide, so that it covers the hole from the wind.

The main rule of winter fishing – keep your hands dry. You have to wipe them regularly so that they do not freeze. In addition, thin fishing line will start to stick to wet fingers.

2. clothing and footwear

Not only for fishing for mormyshka, but also for any kind of winter fishing clothes should be light, warm and waterproof. Why, probably, it is not worth explaining. About what general nuances of choice there are, there is a separate article on the Spinningline portal. Let’s dwell on some private moments:

– reinforced knees with warm inserts on the pants;

– bottom flap on the pants to keep water out;

For those who catch from the knees – an accessory is a must. Its thickness is selected individually. It should be such that the shin is not pawed and you can sit for a long time, until the legs do not start to get stiff.

– should have several pockets. Be sure to put hand warmers in one.

– Be sure to have several pieces for changing with and without fingers. Gloves get wet, and in time to warm your hands is very important.

– Warm and with a quality EVA sole, so that it does not break in the cold.

Proven models of Torvi and TroutPro

Even those who go out on the ice once a year, such an accessory will come in handy. Walking on a slippery surface is a challenge. And add the weight of your gear, the drill behind your back, etc., and the weight of the ice. Do you need to think about balance all the time?
