Cum să alegeți un loc de pescuit pe un râu necunoscut?

When entering an unfamiliar body of water, the first question a spinning angler asks is: where is a promising place to fish? In this article Spinningline experts Alexey Parusov and Oleg Kvitsinia will tell you how to find the secret places where the predator is hiding.

What to orient on an unfamiliar river?

The first of the landmarks is the turn of the river and a steep bank, the so-called steep bank. Under the steep bank, the river, as a rule, has a slower flow. Also on the bottom there are often holes and interesting relief. Perch, bersh, zander or pike prefer to wait for their prey in such places.

What tackle to give preference in an unfamiliar place?

Jig tackle is rightly considered the most exploratory. It is with its help it is best to study the bottom and a particular area of the reservoir. If you are the first time on the reservoir, a jig rod and silicone bait – the ideal option, both simple and effective. With sufficient sensitivity spinning can fully explore the structure of the bottom: silt, sand, clay or coquina. Initially, you can equip the bait with a heavier load than required by the fishing conditions. Tapping the bottom during the conduct, spinningist will fully compose a picture of the relief of the river. After that, you can replace the load with a lighter one.

What tactics is best to adhere to when fishing a new place?

The most promising tactics – it is fan throws. That is, across the river, upstream and downstream. Thus, the angler will be able to find out what relief in the catching sector. This simple method will allow you to understand how the predator reacts to a more or less active presentation of the bait.

How are the preferences of certain species of fish?

White fish most often prefer silted areas of the bottom to dig in search of worms, crustaceans and other easy prey. Predators are most fond of hard bottoms: clay or shell bottoms. Perch, pikeperch, and bershis favor the coquina. There you can also find gouster, roach, mayflies – the food objects of these predators.

An unfamiliar body of water is an opportunity for fishermen to test their theoretical knowledge and gain new experience, studying the behavior of predators and experimenting with lures.
