Roach catching in winter

Roach is a very beautiful and very common fish. Her body is silvery with scarlet fins. When the cold comes, this fish goes to the depth. In the streams the roach tries to keep closer to the bed. It is also easy to find it near pools, pits and cliffs.

Roach fishing in winter usually starts in a couple of days or three days, and sometimes in a week, after the first ice, because at this time the fish starts to peck well. Fishing takes place throughout the winter. However, this fish is extremely sensitive to sudden changes in air temperature and atmospheric pressure. At this time, she falls into an oppressed state, the more often the weather changes, the longer she will be in this state.

The success of fishing depends on several factors. Catching roaches on the first ice is successful, because the fish actively swims and feeds, but the larger the thickness of ice, the more whimsical it becomes. During thaws, the biting noticeably improves. Also, the roach bite well at an even temperature, especially on cloudless, windless days, when atmospheric pressure stably or smoothly falls.

You should pay attention to the fact that roach - a schooling fish, walks in schools. And if you quickly managed to catch a few fish, then the place is chosen correctly, you can catch quite a lot. In this regard, catching roaches in winter is not much different from other seasons.

Somewhere around mid-February, the roach begins to show strong activity, especially during snowfalls in near-windless weather. Roach catching in winter is very fortunate at the confluence of small rivers and streams, as well as in shallow waters in the coastal zone. Sometimes this fish is perfectly caught even near the shore in insignificant depths. A fairly good result is fishing in places and reservoirs where there is a water discharge, as well as near the coast, where an air layer forms.

Roach is a fish that is very hungry and constantly actively looking for food. The main part of its diet is fry and crayfish, but it does not disrupt vegetative food, especially during the period of fodder.

This contributes to the fact that the roach can be fed. Roach fishing in winter means that for feeding, before starting fishing, it is necessary to coax the hole with pieces of dough or bread crumb.

Different baits and flavors should be used prudently, as the roach - the fish is very cautious, this can scare her away. The roach is good for catching bloodworms, worms, larvae and various insects.

From the ice roach can be caught on a nod, a mormish or a float fishing rod. Especially successful catching on mormyshku. A float fishing rod rarely brings a good catch, because it is good for catching it in well-known reservoirs and lured places. Unlike her, mormyshka makes it possible to easily fence all the space and layers of water, and her game provokes the fish to bite.

It should be noted that catching roach on the windshield is not always successful, because this fish does not really respect bezmotilnye mormyshki. An amateur fishing for this tackle, in order to succeed, must skillfully imitate all movements so that the roach accepts the windless for some larva or insect and grabs it.
