Catching perch on the balancer

One of the most fascinating, and giving a lot of positive emotions, types of fishing in the winter time is catching perch on the balancer. This predator of striped coloring manifests its activity, beginning with the covering of the reservoir with the first ice, and until the lack of oxygen becomes felt in the water environment. Very good bait for perch at its catching on the last ice is the balancer, and at the time of deafness it will not miss him when he goes hunting.

How to catch a perch on a rocker? There are no special secrets in this. According to its external data, the balancer is very similar to a small fish, that is, a potential prey for a perch during a hunt. Moreover, this imitation is not only a fry, but a fish that can not escape by running, and only makes movements from side to side, being not very heavy prey.

Winter fishing perch on the balance is also attractive for another reason - fishing is possible even in the most severe frosts, since it is not necessary to remove warm fur gloves and to put on the hook a sponge, moth, or other nozzle, except to remove the caught fish from it. This advantage gives a big plus in time, which is very expensive with good bite of the perch, and besides convenience and comfort for the fisherman. Some of them very often, even despite the decrease in the catch, do not want to switch to the best bait in the hard frosts, because they simply do not want to start a scuffle with a hook on the hook of a sponge or a bloodworm.

Many are often mistaken, believing that catching a perch on a balancer is best when it is small, but this is not entirely correct. In winter, even a small perch during an active biting takes very well on the balancer, whose length is 6-8 centimeters. Instances larger, greedily rush to the balancer, designed for pike perch or pike. Therefore, do not focus on only small (30-50 millimeters) models of baits, but also courageously carry out experiments with larger balancers. When playing with such balancers, there are much greater fluctuations in the water space, and they become much more noticeable for fish at a long distance about very attractive to it.

A good use is the use of large baits on water bodies with a large depth and a small current. Having more weight, such baits perform a quick dive, which gives an advantage in keeping the fish flock near the hole, and with the current flow, the drift of the balance wheel to the side is prevented, which contributes to its "correct" playing.

What kind of shape, and what color should be the bait, so that catching the perch on the balancer is a success? Applying a certain balance on the same water body, but at different times gives excellent results from each other. A lot of factors influence the biting of the perch: it is the thickness of the snow and ice cover on the reservoir, which affects the illumination of the water area, the period of fishing (pervome, deaf-ooziness, the last ice), daily time (evening, day, morning), weather conditions etc. It is difficult to give an explanation, to the fact that the perch is very good at biting one bait, then suddenly it prefers a balancer of a different shape and color. It is for this reason that there is a great variety of this kind of baits. In the trading network, from the abundance of balancers, it is simply dazzled in the eyes and sometimes the choice is very difficult.

To catch perch on the balancer was a success, you need to buy five or six baits of each of the sizes (3, 5, 7 centimeters). The color of the balancers must correspond to the natural color of the fry of the fish of the family of carp and small okunks. According to long-term observations, baits of this kind of coloring are universal for any water body. Therefore, catch a perch in the winter time you need to start with them, then you can already go to experiments.
