スティックベイト・ウォブラー：その特徴は？

What is stickbait?

Stickbait wobblers (stickbait) is a universal blade-less lure. Stickbait means “stick bait” in English.

Stickbait has a spindle-shaped body without a diving blade. The structure resembles a volker. But stickbait, as a rule, have negative buoyancy. They are made of plastic or different types of wood. Covered with a layer of varnish and have a variety of colors. Stickbaits are equipped with one or more hooks. Hooks are used single, double and triple. The number of hooks depends on the size of the bait.

Stickbait is as quiet, and with a rattle inside. Often the hooks are decorated with flies, wool or lurex, this gives additional attraction for the predator and is a point of aiming at the attack.

Many anglers make stickbaits on their own. Handmade lures are very easy to make, cheap and are not inferior in catchability to branded ones.

Features stickbait

1. good aerodynamic characteristics

One of the main advantages of stickbait is its aerodynamic characteristics. Even if there is no long-range throwing system, the lure flies, as they call it, over the horizon. This property is very helpful to the spinningist to bombard a large water area to identify an active predator. In this stickbait resembles an oscillating troll. Even, rather, pilker, only with a slower game. Even in strong winds, when wobblers don’t fly well at all, stickbait is good at punching through the wind. In a strong wind, before putting an oscillating troller, you can try a stickbait.

Stickbaits look like very simple lures, but this is only at a superficial glance.

2. Versatility

They are adapted to play in any layer of water. As a rule, they belong to the sinking class. But when fast wiring due to the resistance of the water stick can play in the surface layers. Some models even jump out of the water during fast wiring. This behavior of the bait well attracts active predators, imitating a fleeing, lost orientation of the fry. This is very much liked by stud and chub.

3. require the skills of the angler

Stickbaits are suitable only for experienced anglers. Only from the correct feeding of the bait depends on the success. Unlike, for example, from crankbaits, which due to their own game can forgive mistakes to a novice fisherman.

Technique of catching stickbait – it is twitching, stop-and-go and all sorts of variations on the theme of pulls and twitches. Without animation, the lure will sink either brick or wiggling sides. Wobbler is designed for active play. His prey is hunting active fish.

4. The objects of fishing for stickbait are stud, perch, chub, trout, pike, pike perch, pike perch, salmon and other species, including many marine species. Almost any fish can be caught on this bait.

For catching pike, models of large sizes from 9 to 15 centimeters are used, and for catching stud, perch, chub and trout, as a rule, smaller sizes are needed. For pike, it is mandatory to use a leash.

釣況

Stickbait works well in the summer in warm water. Fish in this period is the most active and with pleasure chases sticks. Stickbait is an excellent scout. It can be accurately thrown far away. It can be used as a scout for areas, as well as fishing different layers of water when you do not know where the fish is. Explores first the top layer, then the middle layer, then the bottom layer. And all this is done with one lure! The near-bottom layer can be fished with jig wiring. Give the stick to fall to the bottom, and then a sharp movement of the rod or the turn of the reel to make a step. Such wiring is fraught with snags. To conduct the stick in this way, you need to be sure that there are no hooks. To increase the passability of the lure through water obstacles, you can equip it with a hook that does not hook.

Stickbait is often used in sea spinning fishing. There, a very long throw is required and the fish are almost always hungry and active.

Some stickbait, especially those that pause slowly sink, demonstrating excellent roll, used in winter fishing. They are effective to trolling plumb way. The bait is thrown upward, after which it sinks, deviating from the vertical and wiggling sides. Thus, in winter catch pikeperch and pike.

If the stickbait to install only the rear double hook, the stings of which are directed upward. Then such a wobbler will be less clinging to vegetation and will be more passable in snags. Such a stick passes through the carpet of lily pads easily as a glider. In the windows free of lily pads, the wobbler sinks, wiggling sides. You can use and double with wire protection of the hook stinger.

Features of wiring

Wiring stickbait can be uniform, if the stick has its own game. Even with stops, smooth and sharp pulls, twitching with variations. In wiring it is necessary to change not only the type, but also the speed of movement of the bait. From the speed of work (wiring) directly depends on the interest of fish. It is necessary to experimentally pick up the type and speed of animation. As a rule, for catching bass, frequent and not strong jerks are used. For catching pike is suitable uniform with pauses. For catching jherech is used uniform wiring with different speeds. With sharp jerks stickbait swings in different directions or, as a good glider, makes tack left and right in the water column.

For each stickbait in each case, the wiring should be different, original, so it all depends on the fiction and skill of the fisherman.

Some stickbait in the water occupy a horizontal position, some after ducking sink tail down. In the first case, after throwing, as the bait is brought down, it is advisable to wait for a pause, as far as the depth and speed of immersion of the wobbler allows. The predator is attracted by the gurgle from the fall of the bait and at this time is possible attack. If the nibble did not occur, we do the wiring. In the second case, after docking immediately start wiring. Such a stick plays on a stretched fishing line, the pause should be made without weakening the tension.

Catch on stickbait can be both from the boat and from the shore.

Color stickbait, as well as the color of any spinning bait in general, is not of primary importance. It is customary to use bright, acidic or shiny colors in murky water, in clear water it is advisable to use dim, natural shades.

Snast for stickbait

It is desirable to use a spinning rod of fast or super-fast structure. The length of the spinning rod is chosen from the conditions of fishing and affects the range of throwing. Stick is not a stubborn lure at all. A large load on the spinning when wiring does not create, so it can be combined with any tackle. The main thing is that the mass of the wobbler corresponds to the test range of the rod. Only for the so-called “stickbait-jerks” need a powerful jerk tackle.

Stickbait – a truly universal bait for catching active predators.

結論

So, let’s summarize the material of the article.

1. Stickbait does not have a blade, is characterized by an elongated, flattened body, that’s why it received the name “stick-bait”. The runnable geometry improves casting performance.
2. Feature. As a rule, require active animation, therefore recommended to anglers with a certain experience. To each stickbait wiring is selected individually.
3. Objects of catching: almost any sea and freshwater fish. Conditional prey depends on the size, depth and other characteristics of the model.
4. Sticky work well in warm water.
5. Recommendations for tackle:

紡績

• Stroi. Preferably fast (fast) or ultra-fast.
• Length. From the conditions in which you plan to fish.
• Test. As always, should correspond to the weight of the stickbait used.
