Where to look for bream in spring

Going on a fishing trip, it is necessary not only to prepare gear, but also to find out the most promising places for fishing in the reservoir. In early spring, bream often enters backwaters and lakes. Toward the end of April, fish can be found near:

• dams;
• pits;
• oxbows.

It is also worth catching areas of the reservoir with a clay and rocky bottom. Promising points on unfamiliar water bodies, especially large ones, should be searched using a boat or casting echo sounder,
marker cargo , having studied a depth map, or having learned information from local fishermen.

Interesting to know! The duration of spawning depends on weather conditions. And the parking lots of bream during spawning are also near spawning grounds. Bream spawns in relatively small areas of the reservoir, where the water is already warmed up.

What baits and baits are used when catching spring bream

When choosing a nozzle, it is worth considering the weather conditions. In cases where fishing is carried out in cold water, it is recommended to hook: bloodworm, maggot, dung/earthworm or caddisfly. If you plant several larvae at the same time, you can create a fairly voluminous bait. Sandwiches made of worm/maggot, worm/barley, worm/caddis flies and others work well. With the warming of the water (usually May in the middle zone of the Russian Federation), the bream is excellent for plant baits of the type:

• canned corn ;
• steamed peas ;
• boiled barley ;
• bread crumb;
• mastyrki;
• decoys.

Every experienced fisherman knows that bream love sweet tastes and smells. That is why in the
bait mixture , it is worth adding a small amount:

• pears;
• coriander;
• vanilla;
• cinnamon;
• dry milk.

Store-bought mix can be supplemented with homemade cereals. To increase the volume of bait, pre-steamed peas, hercules,
millet and
barley are often used . If fishing is carried out on an animal nozzle, it is necessary to include it in the composition of the bait mixture.

Advice! If no bites are observed for a long time, it is worth putting a sandwich on the hook (maggot with a bloodworm or a caddis fly with a dung worm).

1. Rod . The length of the float gear should reach 5-8 meters. It is advisable to give preference to lightweight models that work well on wiring.
2. Coil . It is recommended to use an inertialess reel with a friction clutch. 2000-2500 Shimano.
3. Fishing line . For bream fishing, a monofilament with a thickness of 0.25 mm is perfectly used.
4. Leash . For the manufacture of the leash, a 0.18 mm fishing line is used.
5. Hooks and float . The most suitable hook size is 8. It is better to purchase a drop-shaped, spindle-shaped float.

Having chosen a promising place for catching bream, anglers feed it. After 10-20 minutes, tackle is thrown. After that, wiring is performed if it is a current. Or they are waiting for a bite if it is a backwater, an area of ​​\u200b\u200ba reverse current or a stagnant body of water. For flow, a sliding float rig is suitable:

Features of fishing on feeder tackle

In cases where it is planned to cast equipment at a distance of more than 20-30 meters from the coastline,
feeder gear should be preferred . With a test load, you can decide on your own based on the depths, current strength, casting distance. Universal test solution 40-60 grams. The rod is equipped with a reel with a spool no more than 2500 Shimano. For bream fishing, a fishing line with a thickness of 0.25 mm is suitable. The leash should be smaller in diameter by 0.02-0.04 mm.

When choosing a feeder, you should give preference to simple
structures. Depending on the fishing conditions, you can choose the weight and shape of the cormack. Experts recommend using weighted triangular structures when fishing for bream in the current. When catching a small pond or lake, you can use feeders of any design.

Features of fishing on the donk

Donka is the most popular tackle, which is most often used for spring fishing. The equipment includes:

• rod;
• coil;
• network;
• sinker;
• underwater float (optional);
• leash;
• hooks.

On the line install a
bite signaling device or a bell indicator. When it starts to ring, the anglers perform hooking and drag the fish to the shore.
Signaling devices on the check [/ caption] In this case, sharp jerks should not be allowed. The bream will try to go under the snags and hide on the bottom, so the fight must be quick and decisive. Having brought the fish to the shore, it is worth bringing it into the landing net. The recommended rod length is 3.5 meters, the test should be in the range of 40-80 gr. The thickness of the braided cord reaches 0.2 mm. The coil can be used both inertial and inertialess. The underwater float is a small piece of material that is positively buoyant. Fix it below the sinker. A pair of leashes with hooks and bait are tied to an underwater float through a swivel. Thanks to these actions, the nozzle will be able to rise above the bottom surface, which will undoubtedly attract the attention of the fish. Hooks must be sharp. When fishing on
bottom gear , anglers often use a feeder. The most popular fixture is a stainless steel spring. The bites of the bream on the bottom gear are always confident. However, it is worth remembering that the bream often manages to spit out the bait, sensing a catch. Therefore, at the first blow, it is important to strike as soon as possible. The fish is pulled out quickly so that it does not have time to cross the curb and go into the snag. Catching bream in the spring on the bottom: https://youtu.be/EEZjEVxHPJ0

Catching on a spring

When fishing with a spring, a mini-feeder fixed at the tip of the main line is included in the equipment. The bait mixture is placed inside the spring. Leads with hooks are tied to the fishing line. The bream will draw them in at the same time as the bait.

Features of fishing on a bait with a mormyshka and with a side nod

To catch bream with a mormyshka with a side nod, the fisherman will need a telescopic tackle with a medium-fast action, the length of which reaches 5 meters. If you plan to cast at a distance of more than 15 meters, you should purchase a rod with a length of 7 meters. To fix the nod to the top of the tackle, you can use a rubber barrel and 2 plastic rings. A slit is made in the barrel, into which the top is blown. Having made a through hole, the fishermen put a nod into it. Then they put on rings that securely press the barrels to the top.
The diameter of the main line is 0.18 mm. The use of a blind snap allows you to avoid overlapping the fishing line with a nod. The coil is used inertial. Mormyshkas are excellent for catching fish by type:

• urals;
• nymphs;
• ant.

Mormyshki for lateral nod[/ caption] In the first weeks of March, small tungsten mormyshkas should be preferred. Such mormyshkas show a stable game when fishing in the current. Mormyshka is played horizontally and vertically. To create a small cloud of turbidity, you can lightly tap the jig on the bottom surface. Then the bait should be lifted and gently rocked. The fish willingly captures the proposed delicacy. Also in the middle of spring (at the end of April-May), when catching bream, you can and should use sharp lingering animations of the jigsaw. On a large bream, a slow animation of the mormyshka is needed, with tapping on the bottom and a smooth rise, then a smooth fall to the bottom. A large bream does not tolerate fuss and is more willing to peck at lazy animation. https://youtu.be/6ReQfTxr7Pw

Fishing for bream in the spring from a boat

The recommended length of gear for angling bream is up to 4 meters. A reel seat is installed on the rod and equipped with a significant supply of fishing line. The recommended line thickness is 0.16-0.2 mm. If the depth of the fished area of ​​the reservoir does not exceed 5 meters, it is advisable to use a float-type rig. At greater depths, it is worth using a sliding float equipment, feeder or donkey. Having anchored the boat, the angler feeds the fishing point, after which he carefully casts so as not to frighten away the fish.
Boilies and
pelletswill be an excellent bait for bream in the spring months. You can use worms and maggots, but keep in mind that they will attract the attention of small fish. In the case of night feeder fishing, care should be taken in advance to stretch the rope in the direction of casting, as in the dark the fisherman quickly loses the landmarks chosen during the daytime.
