Floundering Spoon-baits

Spinners, no doubt, are the most common and simple artificial baits. Their range is wide enough, that's why they are found in the arsenal of each spinning.

They are a metal elongated plate that is bent in a different profile. In the water, the bait oscillating moves in the horizontal direction, and due to its fairly heavy mass, it can be thrown at a decent distance without the use of additional sinkers. It is this use that excludes the lure of the spoon-bait for the line both in the air and when immersed.

Fluctuating spoons are selected based on the conditions of fishing, the depth of the wiring and the flow rate. In deep waters, where there is a strong current, one can not apply light varieties, They will be demolished. Usually, fishermen in such places use the "Sabunaeva triangle" or "pig", cast from heavy alloys.

One of the most popular in our country is the wavering spinner "atom", which is famous for its high catchability, as well as low price. By her indifferently pass neither a pike, nor a pike perch and a large perch, not even a salmon.

Floppy spoon-baits have an appeal in the game: when posting them, regardless of depth, they strongly resemble live fish, which, as it were, quickly escape from predators. They scour from side to side, not rotating around the axis and making the movements typical of river inhabitants. This is the key to their success.

There are "oscillators" with a narrow amplitude, usually for catching pike-perch, and with a wide - pike. This discrimination is based on the selective propensities of these fish: the first feeds on narrow-fry fish, and the second is uncomfortable, it can attack any prey, whether it's a scavenger or a crucian carp.

Floundering spoon-baiters will not leave indifferent any river or sea predator.

They allow to flash, to catch up or to tow, that's why they say that if in the water if at least some predatory fish, it will necessarily peck at them.

By its method of production, "oscillators" are forged, stamped or cast from copper, lead, steel. As a rule, for athletes who are fleshing, they are prepared from nickel silver, and cover them with nitride with gold leaf.

In its simplest form, the oscillating spoon-baits come in four categories:

- for trolling or towing;

- for fishing;

- for wiring with a jig, as a rule, for winter fishing;

- Spoon-baits are superficial.

Usually they are used with the possibility of long wiring, because they do not twist, and in combination with a small head of the carbine, you can ensure a good game.

Catching on the track, too, prefers this kind of spoon-bait because of their high maneuverability.

The principles of choosing the wavering spoon are the following: when fishing in clear and sunny weather it is better to take yellow or red colors that do not give glare, and in cloudy the more catchy is their white or silver color. No less important factor is the degree of water transparency. It must be remembered that the fish, because of some anatomical features, are mostly shortsighted, so the bait should be clearly visible, especially if catfish, pike or perch are caught.

The creator of the "oscillators" is Bewil, who, specializing in creating new artificial baits, most likely simply cut off the handle from a teaspoon and drilled holes in the "working part" of the hook. And already today there are developed such oscillating spoon-baits that enable to catch in any thickness of water, beginning from the bottom and ending with the shallowest depth, almost the surface, in open water or from ice.
