Catching crucian carp in the spring - important little things

Fishing for crucian carp in spring has its own characteristics. Moreover, fishing will be different in each of the reservoirs. Whether it is biting or not depends on many factors. Without knowing the peculiarities of the behavior of crucian carp in the spring, one cannot count on a good catch.

Features of spring fishing for crucian carp

Fishing for crucian carp in early spring in the same area, but in different bodies of water, can start with a time difference of about a week. It is noticed that biting begins earlier in ponds, in which the only representatives of fish are crucian carp. If the reservoir is inhabited by other types of fish, for example, bream, roach or perch, then biting begins later. This must be taken into account when choosing a reservoir for catching crucian carp in the spring.

When the ice has melted and it is time to catch crucian carp in March, you need to carefully approach the place of fishing. While it is still cold, the fish prefers to feed in the warmest - upper - layers of water in shallow water. Fish cannot be found deeper than one meter. Pay attention to the direction of the wind, which blows warm water in one direction. The fish should be looked for there.

March crucian fishing

The most common fishing for crucian carp in the spring with a fishing rod. It is advisable to use a jig as a nozzle in March. Its choice is made in the same way as in winter. The behavior of the crucian carp cannot be predicted, therefore, both light and dark baits should be in the arsenal. Which one the fish prefers, you can determine empirically.

Fishing for crucian carp in March is most successful when using bloodworms as bait. You need to put 2-3 larvae on the hook. But sometimes a bloodworm can compete with a worm or maggot. If the fish does not respond to animal bait, then it is worth turning to plant bait. For fastidious fish, corn, semolina or pearl barley will be to your taste.

There is not so much food in the reservoirs in the spring, so when fishing for crucian carp in March, you need to take care of the bait. You can buy it in the store or make it yourself. To prepare groundbait, you will need cereals (millet, pearl barley), cake and worms. The cereals are boiled in water until incompletely cooked, the worms are chopped. All ingredients are mixed together and form balls from the mass.

April crucian fishing

Fishing for crucian carp in April differs from the method for catching crucian carp in early spring. The fish has already gone to the bottom, where it spends most of its time. Therefore, you need to revise the fishing tackle:

  • Since the fish prefers to stay at depth in April, the float should be fixed. There is no need to change the depth;
  • The float must be very sensitive, otherwise the bite may not be noticed;
  • The sinker should be invisible. When fishing for carp in the spring with a fishing rod, you can notice how the fish is frightened of everything that can be frightened. But nothing should distract her from the bait;
  • Preference should be given to hooks No. 3-5. If you use small hooks, then large individuals will break off.

When fishing for crucian carp in April, you can use everything the same as in March as bait: worms, bloodworms, vegetable bait. Much attention should be paid to groundbait. Here you can not overdo it, but also neglect it. Without bait, the catch will be meager, and most likely it will not be possible to catch a large specimen.

I should start catching crucian carp in April with bait fish. Balls are perfect as her, the recipe for which was given above. While you are unwinding the rods and getting ready to fish, there will be enough time for the fish to smell the food and come to feed. Try to use bait that will not seem interesting to other fish species. This will help you focus only on the crucian carp fishing.

May crucian fishing

At the end of spring, the water is already warmed up enough, and at this time the fish begins to actively eat. This means that fishing for crucian carp in May will be more successful than in the first months of spring. You can already use the donk as a tackle. You can't forget about bait.

When fishing for crucian carp in May, the biting of small individuals is noticeably different from the biting of large ones. If a small carp drew attention to the bait, then the bite will be active, since the small individuals decisively attack the prey. Large individuals are distinguished by a careful bite, which is difficult to notice if the float has little sensitivity. It is rarely possible to expect from large fish that it will take the float under the water, so you need to carefully choose the moment for the hookup.

You can start catching crucian carp in May with a feeder. This tackle will allow you to fish out large individuals, as the bait falls to the bottom. Crucian juveniles prefer to graze in shallow water; they rarely swim to depths. The feeder should be filled with plant-based groundbait that has a good flavor that attracts fish. For the scent, you can use unrefined and essential oils.

If you love fishing with dough, then take note of a few tricks related to the preparation of bait. Don't try to make the dough taste good. Pay all attention only to its consistency and aroma. To keep the bait on the hook for a long time, mix the dough with cotton fibers. They, enveloping the hook, will securely hold the attachment. For flavor, add grated garlic to the dough.

Thus, the methods of catching crucian carp in spring are somewhat different from summer and autumn fishing. This is primarily due to insufficient heating of the water. But in May, when the temperature begins to rise noticeably, the crucian carp fishing promises to be successful.
