How Many Hooks Are Used For Traditional Fishing?

Traditional fishing is to distinguish the division of Taiwanese fishing, which generally refers to all other fishing techniques except Taiwanese fishing and lure fishing. The advantages are mainly reflected in the diversity, practicality, economy, portability, etc. of the fishing gear. The disadvantage is that the sensitivity of the line group may not be as sensitive as that of Taiwanese fishing. Let’s take a look at how many hooks are used for traditional fishing!

1. Definition of fishing method

Traditional fishing is the most common fishing method used by fishermen, but traditional fishing does not specifically refer to a certain fishing method, but a collection of all other fishing methods except Taiwan fishing and lure fishing. For example, long rod short-line fishing, grain wheat fishing, hand-line fishing, wheel-car fishing, and tight-sharp fishing are all traditional fishing. In fact, almost all fish and water conditions have traditional fishing methods corresponding to it.

2. Fishhook discussion

The number of hooks used in traditional fishing depends mainly on the line group used. The number of fish hooks used in different line groups is also different. For example, when using a single hook line group, it is generally 1 hook, and when using a double hook line group, it is generally 2 hooks. When using an explosion hook line group, a string hook line group, a flip hook line group, and a water monster line group, there are few hooks, and at most, it can reach more than a dozen or even dozens of hooks.

3. Fishing tackle matching

The fishing gear used in traditional fishing varies depending on the fishing method. From the perspective of fishing rods, traditional fishing can be done by hand rods (including platform fishing rods and stream rods), sea rods, rock rods, front rods (grill rods), middle rods, raft fishing rods, ice fishing rods, etc. From the perspective of line groups, there are mainly single-line hook line groups, sub-line double-hook line groups, string hook line groups, explosion hook line groups, water monster line groups, etc.

4. Commonly used wire groups

1. Single hook line group for line connecting line group: Single hook line group for line connecting line group is a commonly used line group for traditional fishing. This line group does not have molecular lines or main lines, one line to the bottom and only one hook. The advantage is that the line group has high strength and is not easy to hang on the bottom. The disadvantage is that the fishing rate is slightly lower than that of double hooks.

2. Sub-line double hook line group: Sub-line double hook line group is a commonly used line group for traditional fishing. This line group is also called the platform fishing line group. It is characterized by two fish hooks with one high and one low on the sub-line. The advantage is that the fishing rate is high, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to hang the bottom when fishing in the wild.

3. Climbing Hook Line Group: Climbing Hook Line Group is a commonly used line group for traditional fishing. It is generally used with a seven-star float. In fact, Climbing Hook and Seven-star float are also the most classic combination of traditional fishing. It is most suitable for long rods and short lines to fish in grass holes, and is also especially suitable for fishing in multiple nests.

4. String hook line group: String hook line group is a commonly used line group in traditional fishing. The so-called string hook refers to tie multiple fish hooks into a string. The advantage is that the fishing rate is relatively high and can fish multiple water layers at the same time. The disadvantage is that the line group is easy to wrap but the bait consumption is also large.

5. Explosive hook line group: The explosion hook line group is a commonly used line group for traditional fishing. It is composed of multiple hooks tied together in parallel. It is generally used with sea rods, rock rods, etc. It is most suitable for fishing large fish such as carp, silver carp, bighead carp and other large waters in lakes and reservoirs.

6. Water Monster Line Group: Water Monster Line Group is a commonly used line group for traditional fishing. It is most suitable for floating fishing of middle and upper-level fish such as silver carp and bighead carp. From bottom to top, there are water Monster cages, multiple fish hooks, eight-character rings, float seats, and fixed wind drops (ensure that the line group does not drift with the water flow).
