A zherlitsa is a fishing tackle, the main purpose of which is to catch predatory fish. It is characterized by simplicity of the device, but, at the same time, high efficiency. As a rule, vents are actively used when catching a predator in winter, since winter fishing does not indulge anglers in a variety of ways, unlike summer fishing. In addition to the simplicity of design, this tackle cuts the fish itself, and itself signals a bite. Despite its simplicity, you need to know how to use it.

Ituaiga o fusi

Since fishing continues all year round, baitfish can be used throughout the year. The only thing is that they differ structurally, depending on when it is used, summer or winter.

Summer fishing rods

Summer fishing greatly simplifies the entire design of the vent. It is enough to take an ordinary wooden slingshot and wrap a fishing line around it with a figure eight. Moreover, this must be done carefully, coil by coil. On the left or right segment of the slingshot, a small incision is made, about 1,5 centimeters deep. This is necessary in order to secure the fishing line, about 0,4 mm thick. On the other side of the slingshot, a recess is also cut out, which will be needed to attach the product to the cord.

The weight used in the rig must be of such weight that the live bait can move freely in a certain area. If the load is heavy, then the live bait will quickly get tired, and if it is too light, then the live bait will be able to float to the surface or lead the equipment into snags or thickets of aquatic vegetation.

A metal leash is attached to the end of the fishing line, with a single (you can double and triple) hook. Naturally, the leash has a significant impact on the characteristics of the tackle, but when catching pike, it is simply necessary. Fastening is carried out using a carabiner, although other options are possible.

zherlitsa taumalulu

Winter vents are surface and underwater and are intended for catching predatory fish from ice:

• The design of the underwater winter vent consists of two parts: one part is a traditional slingshot, and the other part is an ordinary stick. A cord or thick fishing line is attached to a straight segment of the stick, and the second part, consisting of a slingshot, is attached to this cord. The stick remains on top of the hole on the ice, while the slingshot is lowered into the water. Such designs of girders are used in conditions where the tackle must be left for a long time, for example, at night.
• The surface winter vent has a completely different design. It consists of a special rack to which a reel with fishing line and equipment is attached, as well as a bite indicator in the form of a signal flag. The base of the entire structure is made of any suitable material, including metal. The result should be a lightweight and comfortable design.

The base is a kind of platform where all the other elements of the tackle are fixed. It can be a piece of a wooden board, 20×20 centimeters in size. In the center of the site, 2 holes are drilled: one for attaching the rack, and the other for the fishing line that falls into the hole. The hole for the fishing line should be located strictly in the center of the platform, and the hole for fastening should be at a distance of 5 cm from the center of the base.

The design of the rack can also be any: it all depends on the imagination, as well as on the availability of suitable materials. It is better if it is plastic, because the metal freezes quickly. On the rack is a reel with fishing line, as well as a signal flag. The flag is made of flexible wire: this is the main requirement for this item of tackle.

How to plant a live bait on a zherlitsa

There are several options for hooking a live bait: behind the back, behind the nostrils, behind the lips, behind the gills. And now about these options in more detail.

Mo puisu

This is probably the easiest way, it is enough to hook two nostrils with a single hook and that’s it, you can send the live bait into the water.

And yet, this process requires some caution, otherwise there is a possibility of damaging the nasal cavity. In addition, you should select those types of fish in which the nasal cavity is durable.

Despite the simplicity, you should take into account the peculiarities of the fishing conditions. This option is considered the most suitable in conditions where there is no flow at all.

Mo laugutu

This option requires prudence. In addition, you need to consider that not every fish has strong lips. For example, perch lips are very weak. If you attach a massive live bait, then he is able to tear off his lips when he is in this position for a long time.

For this method of planting, only a single hook will fit. In the presence of a weak current, it is enough to hook the live bait on the upper lip. If a decent current is noted, then it is better to play it safe and pass the hook through the nostril, hooking both lips at once.

Mo gills

This method of planting requires special care. If everything is done incorrectly, then the live bait will not live long, and few people are interested in a dead fish.

To do it right, it is better to unhook the leash or use a fairly soft leash. If the leash is hard, then it will hamper the movements of the live bait. If its movement does not look plausible, then the predator may refuse to attack, suspecting danger.

Tua i tua

Sitting behind the back is practiced by many anglers, since it does little harm to the live bait, and its movements are more like real, natural ones. But here, too, caution is needed. If this is done incorrectly, then the live bait will lose the ability to move at all.

And here, too, there are 2 options: one involves putting it on a hook between the fin and the ridge, and the second – directly in the area of ​​​​the ridge. The first method is safer for live bait, and the second is more reliable, but requires skill. As a rule, all experienced fishermen plant live bait in the ridge area.

What fish are caught on zherlitsy

Due to the fact that you put the zherlitsa and you do not need to sit near it and wait for a bite, it is very popular among fishermen. It is possible to catch any predatory fish on it, such as catfish, asp, perch, pike perch and pike. Basically, zherlitsa is used when catching pike.

What kind of fish is preferable to use as live bait

Mostly peaceful fish are used, although many anglers believe that perch is in high demand. In fact:

• Pike is caught on almost all types of fish, but in any case, the presence of a food base in a particular reservoir should be taken into account. As a rule, pike is caught for roach, crucian carp, ruff, rudd, etc.
• The most suitable live bait for catching perch and catfish may be loach.
• Pike perch, asp and perch will never refuse a minnow.
• Pike perch, do not mind to profit from the goby, which prefers to be at the bottom, and is included in the daily diet of the predator.
• Perch, as live bait, do not mind tasting perch itself, as well as pike and chub. The only condition is that the perch must be small enough.

How to save live bait

To protect the live bait from unforeseen situations, many experienced fishermen insure the live bait with a second hook, which is attached next to the main one behind the back of the live bait.

Places for installing girders

The summer zherlitsa is fastened either to a strong tree, or to a rod or a thick wooden stake driven into the shore. The winter vent is attached to a stick that lies across the hole. As for the surface vent, it is supported by the support provided by the base of the vent, which is not able to crawl into the hole.

Predatory fish such as pike or zander prefer their favorite places. These places are:

• In places located in the immediate vicinity of the riverbed.
• Promising places are areas where springs or underwater springs beat.
• In areas of the water area, which are characterized by complex relief, where depressions and elevations alternate.
• In places that are littered with blockages of trees or snags. It should not be discounted and obstacles of artificial origin.

• With the help of a vent, it is possible to catch a considerable area, and if you install several pieces, then this area will increase quite significantly. Many who have used such gear for catching a predator recommend installing vents at a distance of at least 10 meters from one another.
• Pike is always there, where the movement of fish fry is observed. Therefore, it does not make sense to look for some special places, especially if the pike is active.

iʻuga

In conclusion, it is necessary to summarize what has been written, having decided on the main purpose of the vent. For example:

• The zherlitsa is intended for catching exclusively predatory fish.
• There are 2 options for such gear – summer and winter.
• The main advantage is the possibility of self-separation of fish.
• For bait, it is better to choose tenacious fish species, such as crucian carp, for example.
• The easiest way to plant a live bait by the lip is if there is no proper experience.
• Predatory fish prefer areas with uneven bottom topography or areas overgrown with aquatic vegetation.
• To secure the tackle, it is advisable to secure another hook.

For greater efficiency, it is better to install several girders at once, although there are some features here too. Firstly, the presence of a large number of vents will not allow you to quickly respond to all bites. Secondly, in each region, at the legislative level, it is noted how many vents each fisherman can install. Especially the last factor must be taken into account in order not to deal with the law, or rather the consequences of the application of this article of the law.
