I want to go fishing for white fish

We decided to go fishing for white fish. What does white fish mean?
Fishermen call white fish a fish that feeds mainly on vegetable food and is caught mostly on a float rod.
What do we need on such a fishing?
First of all, you need to be well aware of which reservoir we go fishing for white fish. The fish will peck on the bait that she used to feed in the pond. And even the advice of an experienced sales assistant will not help unless you specifically know the reservoir. If you eat on an unfamiliar body of water, for insurance you need to take several types of bait, with the expectation that the fish will bite on some of the baits.
What are the bait on white fish?
If it is a rudd, a roach, a bream, there is useful maggot, pea mastyrka, pearl barley.
If the carp, then in the hot time mastyrka and talker of semolina. If cool, then bloodworm. If we catch carp, then corn and dung-worm are good baits.
Recipes pea mastyrki and talkers of semolina can be found on the Internet, but for those who are busy and do not have time to make bait by hand, there are fishing shops and tents on the market with many ready-made options.
How to lure a white fish?
In the same way as bait, bait-baits are sold. Unfortunately, the cost of bait is high, so I advise you to cook bait at home. It will be twice cheaper, and at the same time you can easily control the quality of the “treat” for fish.
To do this, (recipe for 1 kg) grind in a meat grinder 200 gr. roasted sunflower seeds, grind 400 gr. plates of oats and add 400 gr. breadcrumbs. For more effect from the bait, I add 20 grams. ground cumin or coriander.
How to feed?
It is necessary to pour a few handfuls of the mixture into the prikormochnoe bucket and mix it with the earth in a ratio of 1: 1. Land is needed from that part of the reservoir where you plan to fish. It is more convenient to take the land wet, since it is more difficult to get dry land if you do not have a shovel (not everyone has the opportunity to take with them “extra” cargo).
Then we add water and mix until thick, which will allow to make balls (“snowballs”) from bait. It is important not to overdo the water – if it is too liquid, the ball will collapse when hitting the water. The bait should keep its shape before reaching the bottom of the reservoir.
Where do you want to throw the bait?
You need to throw under the float and it always works for me.
How to choose the right float?
There are different types of floats. My choice is limited to floats on the course and for standing water. Everything else is the subtleties of fishermen-athletes who have achieved high skill fishing.
The antenna on the float should be as bright as possible. It should be clearly visible (visible to the eye) from 5-10 meters.
Does the material of the float that it is made of is important?
The quality of the material affects the durability of the float and its cost.
Although it is generally considered good floats, goose feather floats.
What else can we need for fishing?
Going fishing, do not forget to take the cage for folding the catch. It should be spacious so that the fish do not suffocate in it before you are ready to go home. Otherwise you will not bring home the fish fresh.
We should not forget about the things without which fishing is not possible: a knife or scissors, mixed hooks, reels of fishing line for different weight of fish and a lot of different improvised means that each person considers necessary for himself, including landing net or net for drawing out fish.
What can you wish to a beginner who goes fishing for white fish?
I can wish for the traditional “no tail, no scales” and patience, because without patience there is no fishing!
Thank.
