With the onset of cold weather and ice cover, there is a radical change in the behavior of anglers. Now you don’t need a boat to get to the most difficult places. And it is possible to fish a deep snag with minimal loss of baits. Someone chooses the path with the least resistance, filling the entire water area with zhurlyitsami. But a real sportsman prefers active search and artificial lures. If we are talking about sports fishing of predatory fish, then this implies, first of all, winter trolling, about which we will talk.

Beginner troller-universalist should have at least three sets of gear for any predator and different conditions.

1. For perch

The entire tackle assembly for bass fishing is a compromise between lightness and durability. Sportsmen bass fishermen in every way to reduce the weight of the fishing tackle, usually making it by hand from durable foam and carbon fiber whips. The main task is to increase sensitivity without a strong loss in strength. Delicate tackle not only improves communication between the angler and the fish, but also increases the number of nibbles. Requirements for tackle:

• Therod should be very light, no more than 20 grams. It should be 30-40 cm long for small swings. The whip should be rigid and not recoup inertia when the bait falls.
• The reel is not necessary. First, it significantly weighs down the tackle. Secondly, bass fishing usually occurs at shallow depths and does not require a large stock of fishing line. Thirdly, when catching perch does not require a friction to cushion the jerks of strong fish. Even if a pike bites, dropping 3-5 meters of fishing line is usually enough to exhaust the toothy.
• Line 0,12-0,18 mm. The thinner the fishing line, the more nibbles, but less chance to get a trophy in the hole. A beginner is better to use a thicker monofilament.
• Lures: light blades up to 3 grams and small balancers #2-#3. Usually perch are caught in the bays of rivers, lakes and reservoirs, where the current is quite conventional, so light lures are used.

2. For pikeperch

Snastes for catching pikeperch are fundamentally different from perch. Pikeperch over 1 kilogram is much more often caught than perch of similar size. If we take into account that the fight with the fang predator often occurs at great depths, strong currents and near snags, it is quite obvious that the sensitivity and lightness of the tackle are sacrificed in favor of power. Requirements for tackle:

• Therod should be from 50 cm in length. The whip by its structure should resemble a stake both literally and figuratively. All this is necessary for a confident hooking of pikeperch, whose jaw is known for its hardness. To cut through it, and even at great depths, when the fishing line is stretched, you need a sharp swing with a large amplitude.
• Reels for pike-perch fishing rods are used multiplier, inertial-free. Multiplier is more convenient to use and much lighter. Inertia reel is used much less often, and not quite the usual way. Resetting the fishing line is not by opening the choke, but by switching the lever of the backstroke of the bobbin. The advantage of the non-inertial reel is a finer setting of the friction.
• Thefishing line is used from 0.25 mm. Here again you need to look for the golden mean. The larger the diameter, the stronger the sailing. The stronger the current, the thinner the monofilament should be, but, of course, without “fanaticism”. Also fishing lines of larger diameters are much more willing to create a beard when handling the reel awkwardly.
• Lures: heavy and medium blades 5-20 grams, balancers #5-#9. Since pikeperch are caught not only on river beds, but also on the reservoir, where the current is almost absent, the range of baits used is quite wide.

3. For pike

Pike fishing tackle is something between the tackle for perch and for pikeperch. Purposefully for toothy predator hunts less often than for representatives of perch, and this fish is usually a pleasant bonus. But if the question arises “where to look for pike?”, the answer is usually found in the bays of large rivers and lakes, where the spotted predator is kept in large numbers almost all year round. The current in such places is absent, and you can apply light baits and more delicate tackle than for pikeperch, but with a greater margin of safety than for perch.

• Pike fishingrods are usually 40 to 60 cm long. The whip is ultra-fast, which allows you to catch large fish and has a high sensitivity.
• Reels are used the same as when catching pikeperch.
• Fishing line 0,20-0,30 mm.
• Lures: light and medium blades, balancers #4-#6. Variants with enlargement of baits are possible.

In the paragraph about tackle for trolling it is impossible to avoid the topic of nods for fishing rods. Opinions of anglers about the use of a nod are divided approximately equally. The author of this article belongs to the camp of adherents of nodless trolling, because he sincerely believes that a sensitive rod allows you to convey all the subtleties of the game of bait under water and the slightest touches of fish.

Artificial lures for winter trolling are divided into three groups: blades, balancers and rattlers or cicadas.

1. blades

Aspinnerbait is a metal lure with a shiny surface. The most diverse category of winter artificial lures, combining all sorts of shapes and modifications. As a rule, the glitter has at least one edge and a center of gravity displaced relative to the geometric center of gravity. This shape of the lure allows it to change its trajectory after a vertical toss when falling. Usually, the falling troll takes a close to horizontal position and makes low amplitude oscillations. Various variants of wiring are possible.

The first time you stand on the point, you can make a few sprawling tosses, attracting predators from a large area. To persuade the attracted fish to bite, it is necessary to reduce the height of the toss exactly so much so that the bling not just vertically fell, and played, changing the trajectory. Usually it is enough to jerk the rod by 5-20 cm. The tip of the rod after the fall of the trolling rod should not make parasitic vibrations, holding a certain horizon. This will not only improve the quality of wiring, but also reduce the number of idle bites. Usually, blades are completed with a single hook or a treble. Experienced anglers refine their lures, equipping the hook with a bead or cambrick, thus creating a “point of aiming”

2. balancers

Abalancer is a fish-shaped lure equipped with two or three hooks and a tail blade. Two hooks are located on the nose and tail of the “fish”, the third is suspended from the bottom under the center of gravity and is usually supplemented with a drop of brightly colored polymer, which serves as a “point of aiming”. The balancer is suspended from the fishing line by the “back” above the center of gravity. Thus, the lure, being stationary, takes a strictly horizontal position, whence its name.

When falling, thanks to the tail blade, the balancer is strongly deflected from the axis of equilibrium, describing a trajectory resembling a figure eight. It is difficult to say what imitates this behavior of the lure, but the predator is clearly attracted by such movements. Attack follows on the pause, which in the case of passive fish is important to keep long enough. Wiring balancer is very simple and effective: a sharp swing and pause. As a rule, as a rule, for different models will be different, because the larger the bait, the higher should be the throw for optimal play. Balancers are very popular with beginners in winter trolling, because they do not require special skills for catching fish.

3. Rattlins and cicadas

Rattlins and cicadas are universal lures and are used by anglers both in summer and winter. These baits come in many different forms, but they are united by one feature of behavior – high-frequency vibration during wiring. Therefore, another name for rattlins is “wibes”.

Catch rattlinami usually active predator, especially adores this bait perch. For successful fishing should be used two types of wiring. First, it is necessary to make a few high rebounds. In this case, the bait strongly vibrates, attracting predatory fish from a large area. To attract a predator attracted by vibrations bite, you need to change the high tosses to very small, with pauses, as when playing a troll. As a rule, rattlins are equipped with two tees, which cling to the line at a sharp fall. Therefore, at the stage of high tosses should smoothly lower the bait on the fishing line, not allowing a free fall and overlap hooks.
