Catching bull

It should be noted that one of the most prey and fascinating fishing in Azov is considered to be fishing bull. He is caught here in the usual zakidushku. The ideal length of the line is 15 m, the thickness is 0.7 mm. In addition, two hooks # 10 or # 8 are needed, a weigher, whose weight is selected according to the diameter of the line. The first hook at the end of the line is fastened, after 20 cm, the load is placed, after 20 cm, a lead of 20 cm is made, at which a second hook is attached at the end.

The bull or other freshly frozen or fresh fish, waterworms, shrimps can be used as bait. It is advisable to have several baits at hand, since the bull's tastes are constantly changing, and periodically it can only peck at meat, while the second time - exclusively on the worm.

It is better to go fishing early in the morning - at this time the water is not yet very hot. By noon, due to the heat, the fish will become passive and go to depth.

Catching the ram

If you have planned a holiday with fishing on the Sea of Azov, then you will catch a ram. In the summer to the coast it fits in a huge amount. It can be caught with donkey, but the ram is bitten better by float fishing rods, because this type of fish does not get food from the bottom, but in the middle layers of water.

Taran in summer must be fed. To the point of catching for this, you can throw a cake from seeds, different cereals, bread crumbs. Fish should be fed only when the biting drops, otherwise the ram can be overfed and it will not take the bait. Fish perfectly goes to animal and vegetable attachment, for example, mango, bread, corn, pearl barley, dung worm, sea and wheat.

When using bread crumb for viscosity and taste, honey is added to it. In this case, you will need gray bread, which must be mixed with egg, a spoonful of sunflower oil, and ½ teaspoon of liquid honey. Also, instead of sunflower oil, you can take aniseed, ramming it better. In addition, anise oil can be dripped and another bait - biting will be more active. It is worth noting that the ram is a cautious fish, therefore, it is better to choose a shade of bait.

Catching of bearing

Fishing in the Sea of Azov is also on the bearing. He is caught in early June, after which he begins to refuse all the bait offered to him, and only in August the biting again resumes. To catch this fish will need a long, powerful rod, capable of providing a casting of 100 meters. In this case, the length of the line should be 300 meters, while its diameter is 0.35 mm. Next, a weight is hung.

Above it on the swivels are fixed 2-3 leashes of 40-100 cm long. It must be remembered that this fish eats in the very depth of the water, therefore, it is better to raise the hooks from the bottom. Especially for this use balls of foam. They are put on leashes near the hook, but in such a way that the sting is open. It is necessary that the hook at the same time in the water floated, but at the bottom did not lie. In the opposite case, it will not be possible to catch the direction bearing. An ideal bait for him is a sea worm.

Such fishing on the Azov Sea suggests that the fisherman will be able to very far and with force to throw the rod. Given the weight and dimensions of the sinker, this is not easy. On the top of the rod is fixed bite.
