How Long Is The Appropriate Line For Fishing Loaches?

Loaches are small freshwater fish of the family Loach family and loaches, also known as fish loaches, loaches, mud dogs, etc. They are distributed in various places except for a few areas of the Northwest Plateau. They like to live in still water or slow flowing water in the bottom of mud such as rice fields, ponds, ditches, streams, lakes, reservoirs, and swamps. Let’s take a look at how long the loach fishing line is appropriate!

1. Definition of fish species

Loach is one of the most common small fish, also known as fish loach, loach, mud dog, etc. It belongs to the animal kingdom, Chordoma, Bones, Cycloidae, Loach family, and Loach belongs to freshwater fish. It is distributed throughout the country except for a few areas in the Northwest Plateau. It likes to live in mud-bottomed paddy fields, ponds, ditches, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, swamps and other water bodies, and has extremely high edible and economic value.

2. Sub-line length

When fishing for loaches, it is recommended to use a sub-line with a length of 8 to 15 cm after folding. The specific length depends mainly on the fish condition. For example, when catching fast or raw fish, it is recommended to use a sub-line with a sub-line of 8 to 12 cm. When catching slippery or slow fish, it is recommended to use a sub-line with a sub-line with a strong concealment and obvious "pendulum" effect. The disadvantage is that the fish message is slow. The advantage of the short sub-line is that the fish message is fast and the grasp is accurate. The disadvantage is that it is easy to arouse the fish's vigilance.

3. Fishing tackle matching

1. Fishing rod: It is generally recommended to use a crucian carp rod when fishing for loaches. The characteristics of crucian carp rod are light bodies, thin bodies, and small fishing weight. The advantage is that it has a good feel and is conducive to frequent throwing of rods. It is most suitable for small fish such as loaches and crucian carp, and can also be used for easy-to-carry stream rods.

2. Fish hook: It is generally recommended to use a sleeve hook when fishing for loaches. The characteristics of the sleeve hook are thin, narrow hook door, long hook handle, and straight hook tip. The advantage is that the hook body is light and easy for small fish to swallow the hook bait. The long hook handle is convenient for quickly unloading the fish after being caught. You can use a sleeve hook number 0.1 to 2 for loaches.

3. Fishing line: It is generally recommended to use nylon lines when fishing loaches. The sub-line can be 0.4~0.6, and the main line can be 0.6~1.0. In fact, it is enough to use the sub-line of loaches and the main line of 0.2 and 0.4. However, loaches like to jump around. If the sub-line is small, it will be useless if they can’t catch a few.

4. Bait formula

1. Natural bait: You can use natural bait when fishing for loaches. For example, earthworms, red worms, maggots, mealworms and other meat baits, as well as wheat grains, grains, broken corn kernels and other vegetarian baits, especially earthworms, red worms, maggots, and mealworms. The effect is the best.

2. Commodity bait: You can use commercial bait when fishing for loaches. For example, the field blue crucian carp under Dragon King Hen, the September 18th under Laogui, the Crazy Crane Fishing Crane under Diaoyu King, the Big Crane Terminator under Tianyuan, and the 4th and 6th crucian carp under Huashi, etc. can all be fished for loaches.

3. Homemade bait: You can use homemade bait when fishing for loaches. For example, flour, corn flour, soybean flour, wheat bran, rice bran, etc., you can all make loach bait. In order to enhance the effect of attracting fish, it is generally recommended to add appropriate amount of shrimp powder, red worm powder, earthworm powder, bone powder, etc.
