Features of fishing on micro-oscillators, selection and making by hand

Unlike their more weighty counterparts – large oscillators, micro oscillators have gained popularity among fishermen in Russia and the CIS countries not so long ago. Although in Japan they have been popular for more than 30 years and are used for fishing (the so-called area-fishing) for trout, grayling, sea bass and other predatory and peaceful fish. At the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, ultralight oscillating lures began to gain wide popularity among spinning anglers in Eastern Europe at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, in parallel with the wide and comprehensive development of the Internet, as well as the appearance and availability of more delicate gear (lines / braids / spools / blanks) for sale. https://youtu.be/t4mV8iuHilU Now such baits can be ordered from abroad without any problems, or you can buy them from local manufacturers who are trying to keep up with their Western colleagues.

What is the power of small oscillating spoons

You can catch almost any fish, both predatory and quite peaceful – rudd, bream and even crucian carp with micro-fish. That, of course, is a competitive advantage of this type of bait. It is also worth noting the durability of iron micro-molds, in comparison with the same silicone. Miniature spoons almost always, with rare exceptions, are equipped with a single hook, which, with sufficient power of the tackle, makes it possible to release the bait from the hook and save the expensive spoons. At the same time, a high-quality unary with due experience of the spinning player keeps even a large predator. In addition, it should be borne in mind that the single-bar breaks the mouth of the fish better than the tee, since the power of the sweep is applied to one point of penetration. Often this monkey is beardless, which once again reminds us that fishing with micro-oscillators,probably the most sporty spinning rod.
A high-quality single-cage holds the fish quite well, but at the same time does not interfere with the play of the miniature bait and protects from unnecessary hooks [/ caption]

According to the subjective opinion of the author, it is the fishing with the vibrators in miniature sizes that is the most pleasant aesthetically. The variety of shapes, colors, animation options and behavior in the water is the undoubted advantage of this type of bait. The obvious disadvantage is that it is easier to seduce a large trophy with a wobbler or the right silicone.

Preparation and collection of gear

Fast forms are used with dough 1-5, maximum 2-7 grams. If higher, then this is no longer ultralight fishing, but light fishing, and this is a completely different story. The reel to match the rod – 1000-1500 Shimano, the most it. Smooth running, ideal line guide and rollers. Braided lines should be preferred, due to their greater strength, range and zero stretch, sensitivity during animation, as well as maximum responsiveness to all actions of the angler. The same cannot be said about monofires. We choose Japanese manufacturers of the most smooth and catchy braids.

Among the manufacturers of quality cords, we note – YGK, Varivas, Berkley, Climax, Salmo and others.

For fishing on ultralight bobbins, it is worth abandoning the use of steel leashes. The best and
acceptable option is to use fluor, diameter 0.2-0.25. You want it thicker in order to protect yourself from toothy ones, but you can’t – the losses in animation will be colossal, especially when wiring the smallest representatives of microscopes. Leash length 0.3-0.5 meters, no longer required in most cases. Such a leash will protect the main fence from abrasion, minimize the number of overlaps and provide less visibility in the water. We splic the fluor and the main line / cord with knots such as carrot or albrite – these knots are compact and practically do not weaken the tackle. To a fishing line, fluorocarbon or the thinnest cord, a small oscillator is attached through the smallest fastener number 000-00. This gives additional freedom to play the bait.

Note that the breaking load of fluorocarbon should be comparable to the breaking load of the main braid, this will balance the tackle, and the animation of the microblade will be of high quality and responsive.

How to choose micro-vibrators: general principles, TOP-10 best (subjective rating)

There are a large number of micro-oscillators – budgetary and expensive, of various shapes and colors and with different behavior on the wiring in the current and on stagnant bodies of water. The selection, as usual, must be done based on the fishing conditions, the alleged predator and, to be honest, the notorious factor of “belief in the bait” is also not complete.

Choice of colors

The wide range of colors is due to several factors:

1. Different fishing conditions dictate the choice of a particular color. It is necessary to experiment, for which it is necessary to have in the arsenal a diverse collection of micro-oscillations in different shapes, sizes and colors.
2. Fish preferences. Depends on the species composition and mood.
3. Visual control by the spinning player. It’s simpler here – the brighter, the easier it is to watch the animation of the mikrushka. But it is not always appropriate to use toxic chemical colors.

Poisonous coloring is good for muddy water, it is good to control it visually, it is also used for passive fish, as a provocateur, and not a food base [/ caption]

Shape selection

The wider the lure, the wider the glides it lays on the lead, which is attractive and “tasty” for most predatory fish. But there is also a downside to the coin – the wide-bodied micro-vibrator enters rotation faster, and is also quickly squeezed out to the surface by the current. Hence the conclusion – the quieter the current, the more suitable wide-bodied baits will be, the faster, the more suitable are narrow-bodied lures. And one more conclusion that follows from the previous one. Pike, perch, “coastal” chub prefer the slow play of wide-bodied mini-beaters, asp, beating on rapids and rifts, prefers active high-speed driving of long-bodied, narrow-bodied lures. For peaceful fish, it is best to use the smallest spoons in the region of 0.5-2 grams on the appropriate wiring.Most often, the advantage is provided by universal intermediate options for lures – with medium dimensions. They allow you to work in a wide range of current speeds, fishing conditions and expected trophies. It is also worth paying attention to the shape of the bends, compactness, the number of edges and other characteristics of the shapes. For example, a compact spoon (Nories Boon in the photo above) – flies well, sinks quickly. Suitable for relatively long casts and depths. But it is hardly appropriate in a quiet current, since it sinks rather quickly on a slow wiring. There are typical jig and twitch spoons – each needs to be studied and tasted. fishing conditions and expected trophies.

Nories Rooney is an all-rounder working on various reservoirs [/ caption] And now the 10 best micro-oscillators in our opinion, there are many more of them, but it is not possible to consider even 1 percent of what you have personally tried to catch, and therefore the subjective rating:

1. Daiwa Presso Rave . A lightweight shaker for uniform guidance in the upper layers of the water area. For whites, perches, chubs – good, especially in the windows among water lilies and above aquatic vegetation. The price tag is 220+ rubles. At flea markets 150-200.
2. Smith Pure . Favorite micro-vibrator “puree”. Best off the best. Perfectly chops school perch, ide, chub, in 5 gram version seduces worthy pikes. Wiring is uniform with wide blockages to the sides, dragging with explosions at the bottom, light chaotic twitch. It can wake up excitement and zeal in the most passive inhibited predator. The black and gold color scheme (pictured) works great at sunrise / sunset. The price tag is 250 rubles.
3. Waterland Almin . The baby weighing 1.2 grams is suitable for brisk fishing for perch, rudd, chubs and chubs. The very case when a “normal” fish is silent and you want to spin at least something. It plays well in the fall, it is intended for fishing the upper layers of the reservoir 0.5-1 meters. The price tag starts from 400 rubles, at flea markets you can find it for 200.
4. The Waterland Gater Spoon is a typical micrushi jig. A very interesting shape and solution in the form of a transverse stiffener on the “belly”. Good for local promising locations. Casting – letting go down and jerking with simultaneous winding up to the surface. Not so that it is a universal, but for specific tasks it is the right thing. The price tag is from 350-400, on the forums in the region of 200 rubles.
5. Antem Bux . The shape allows you to use the lure when fishing against the current, it is not thrown to the surface even with a fairly fast retrieve. It flies so-so, but for fishing coastal zones in the region of 15-20 meters (on the lightest gear up to 25) it is very good. Price 200 + rubles.
6. Waterland Cherry Bauer – originally, these micro-vibrators, like many other Japanese ones, were intended for rainbow trout, but they also found application in our predator – perch, chub, and ide. The form is amazing (there is a patent). We recommend using it in a combination of horizontal-vertical animations, it sprinkles cool on the vertical, seducing a passive predator. Of the minuses – the price tag is around 500 rubles. At flea markets, a little lower.
7. Rodio Craft NOA – was originally also intended for catching “iris”. But over time, it tightly migrated to fishing wallets. Mows small / medium perch. No special trophies were noticed, but in the by-catch of rudd / chub / saber (she really likes pink variations). We personally recommend! The price tag is around 200-250 rubles.
8. Acme Kastmaster , for ultralight 2.5-3.5 grams. Little brother of the famous shaker. Very catchy lure, good for the flow, holds the stream. Of the minuses – it is often cut with a pike from a bean pod in size). The cost is 150-200 rubles per piece. Beware of fakes , the main difference is the cut of the winding ring from the castmaster inward, in fakes at a right angle or outward. Acme Kastmaster [/ caption]
9. Nories Masukuroto is a universal Japanese masterpiece. Works at different wiring speeds, accepts twitch and step. Sluggishly dragging along the bottom does not leave indifferent pike perch. The cost is 400 rubles.
10. Acme little cleo is another masterpiece from Acme. Both ultras and larger spoons work. Pike and perch are caught. Good for bodies of water with little or no current. It is worth noting a wide range of colors. The cost is 150-200 rubles, on the forums you can find it cheaper.

It is worth noting that in our rating there are most of the Japanese beauties, and this is not casual. Along with the catchiness, Japanese spoons have the advantage that they do not differ from each other from specimen to specimen. That is, each subsequent one behaves in exactly the same way as the previous one, which cannot be said about domestic manufacturers, and even more so about Chinese ones. We also note such popular mini-vibrators, about which you can find a large number of positive reviews – Smith Flaky, SV Fishing, Ivyline Vlayde, Megabass Izabella, Lucky John CLEO, Williams Wabler, Waterland Deep Diamond, Smith Drop Dia, Ivyline acti and others.

It is very important to choose high-quality micro-vibrators – it is a recognized fact that the smaller the bait, the more difficult it is to make it working.

Fishing on micro-oscillators – theory and practice, video tips

Fishing with ultralight vibrators is a separate layer of spinning science, a separate flight of thought and fantasy, its own philosophy, if you like. Each spoon needs to be understood, examined on the wiring, felt in such a way as to animate it qualitatively, even without visual contact. It’s not as easy as with regular large baits, which are often forgiving animation flaws. The main wiring is uniformity, its main rule is this – on the laziest even wiring of the mini-forest, it should make the widest possible oscillations and turns, without failures and blockage in rotation. Some micro-molds will accept different variations of twitch wires, others will not. It is necessary to experiment and learn from the experience of more experienced colleagues in the shop. The strength, character and frequency of jerking should be matched to the nature of the spoon and the mood of the fish. From popular micro-oscillators,working on jerk wiring, we note – Rodio Craft NOA, Smith Pure. Other microrough vibrators accept various types of stepped guides with / without pauses – dragging along the bottom, single-double detonations, classic step, wave-like movements. Many high-quality “Japs” gorgeously “pour” on pauses – this must be taken into account when animating babies, using the vertical component when posting micrushy oscillating baubles. These include – again, Rodio Craft NOA, Nories Masukuroto, Smith Flaky, Waterland Renge and others. single-double explosions, classic step, wave-like movements.

Like any other bait, they can work better or worse depending on the specific situation and conditions. But the fact that such lures should be in every ultralight’s wallet is a fact, especially for trout fish. Recommended!
