<\/span><\/p>\nThese baits during wiring are capable of emitting loud squelching sounds with a characteristic “bump”, reminiscent of a predator hunting on the surface. All this is accompanied by a sea of splashes and perfectly attracts both pike and perch. But at least at our place on the Dnieper or Sozh River, the stud prefers a faster version of wiring, in which the popper does not have time to “gurgle”, but only produces a fan of splashing water.<\/p>\n
Despite the variety of models presented in our market, in fact there are only a few basic types of these baits. They differ only by the shape of the body or the location of the bait in the water during the pause. In terms of shape, they are either quite fat lures cone-shaped with a large surface notch, or on the contrary very skinny – with a small “patch”. The first are very stable to the wave, give more splashes, when wiring go almost straight, and during the pause, as a rule, take a position in the water with a slope of about 45 degrees. The second will be useful to us in shallower places, because when the ducking they practically do not sink and “go” a little more widely with a small amount of splash.<\/p>\n
I have already written above that the stud prefers a faster version of wiring than standard predators. But at the same time, as strange as it may sound, he also likes pauses, especially if fishing occurs in the presence of a wave. Withstand “mkhatovskie” 5-6 seconds as when catching pike, of course, it is not worth it, but 1-3 seconds to allocate for a pause is quite possible and even necessary. During this time, the popper has time to swing a couple of times on the wave, resembling a stunned and disoriented fry. Well and the stud, as well as any other predator, can not miss such an easy prey and immediately attacks. Sometimes there were even fishing, on which the number of nibbles during the pause was much greater than during the active phase of wiring.<\/p>\n
As for the size of the popper, I choose it, as well as any other bait, based on the specific conditions in the place of fishing. As a rule, I start with bigger baits, and then if there is interest in them, but no bites – I go in the direction of reduction.<\/p>\n
On the colors do not really bother, as they say, take what is, but still prefer “naturals” and preferably some contrasting spot on the back for ease of visual control.<\/p>\n

The shape of the body in the bulk resembles a slightly curved cigar and, as a rule, all of them between themselves something similar. Also a very characteristic feature of this type of bait is the location of the fastening loop – it is not directly on the axis of the wobbler, but with a slight downward slope. During the wiring resembles a fish running away in terror from the predator on the surface of the water, very good when fishing in the shallowest areas or in the gaps between the grass. It is thanks to these movements, reminiscent of a snake or walking the dog on a leash (English – walking the dog), it owes its name.<\/p>\n
Waulker wiring when catching exactly sherespera also slightly different from the “pike” – instead of wide glides we need a variant that resembles “perch wank”, but at a slightly faster pace and with a very small amplitude. Unlike poppers, I prefer not to make pauses at all, and even vice versa – if I see that the stud shows interest, I speed up the wiring. In case of a fish misses the bait in no case should not stop, because in most cases will follow at least one more attack before the stud completely lose interest and turn back.<\/p>\n
There is another most typical mistake – many beginners focus only on the surge and immediately make a hook-up. As a result, it turns out that they themselves do not let the corsair normally swallow it and just snatch the wolfcaster right out of his open mouth. Naturally, the realization on surface baits and so “lame”, and here we also reduce our own chances of a successful catch.<\/p>\n
Najljub\u0161e:<\/strong><\/p>\nThere is also a slightly less common subtype of these baits – gliders. This is probably already a slightly different class of baits, but despite the negative buoyancy in the conductivity they perform the same “snake”, significantly farther fly and very stable even on a strong wave. In addition, if you make a small pause, you can spend them and under the surface.<\/p>\n
Actually, the most famous representatives of this type of stud baits are Jackson Debu Nyoro 85 and Megabass Coayu Slide Sinker.<\/p>\n

\nIn addition to the classic surface baits there are also a bunch of different “hybrids” that combine the common features of both poppers and wolfers. The only lure in my arsenal that has such characteristics is the Lucky Craft Gunfish. I can’t say that I remember about it very often, but there are times when the outcome of fishing was decided by a wolker “snake” with a small amount of splash, which from my arsenal only he is able to do.<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\nOr, for example, Skagit Design Hide Sweeper – it is generally quite exotic in our area sinking bait, which I still can not allocate in a certain class. However, it performs an exemplary “herringbone” when wolf wiring, sometimes dives under water and at the same time perfectly catches studs.<\/p>\n
Here you can also safely include floating sticks or propbeit, which are quite and quite used when catching studs on the surface, but due to the low prevalence of just to get them, you have to try very hard.<\/p>\n
