pike fishing , when rattlins are most effective in the summer, when hunting for striped, but not baleen, vibes are widely used both in the summer for casting and in winter with a sheer perch lure.

Fishing for perch on ratlin in summer: tactics and strategy, choice and application
Vibes when fishing for perch in summer and autumn are very effective and catchy, often when casting, the boiler robber is hung on two tees of the bait at once, racing attacking the rattlin you like. It is only important to skillfully pick up and apply the bait to the predator.
Tackle
For high-quality wiring and rattlin casting, a fast action rod is needed. Considering the weight of the most commonly used vibes when fishing for perch, the test spinning rod is 1-12, 3-15, 5-18 grams. Spinning reel 1500-2000 according to Shimano’s classification. Cord with a breaking load in the region of 2-6 kg. If there is no pike in the pond, or its bite is unlikely, a leash is not needed. You can put a leash made of a diameter-compatible fluorocarbon, splicing it with the main braid, for example, a “carrot” knot. Such a leash carries a quadruple load:
- The fluor is stiffer than the braid, which reduces the amount of overlaps.
- The fluor is less noticeable in the water, which increases the chances of a bite.
- After all, it reduces the likelihood of cuts with a small pike.
- With fluorocarbon, fatigue from the constant vibration of the ratling in the hands does not come so quickly, while the bait itself does not change its game under water.
Place and appropriateness of application
Most often in summer, perch rattlins are used at depths of 1-2 to 3-4 meters. At greater depths, larger
“pike” vibes are used , with appropriate depth. Such massive lures catch humpbacks in the by-catch, but such ratlings are not often used purposefully for catching perch. The rattlins show themselves especially well in stagnant and calm water. On fast rivers, it is not so convenient to control the wiring of a wide-bodied bait – often the vibe falls over and does not hold the stream. And the perch does not often stay in such places – its fiefdom is bays, edges and deep pits, – at the very bottom, stretches and floodplain lakes.
Tactics and strategy: feed, posting, secrets of using rattlin
It is not difficult to master ratlin, even a beginner can do it. He accepts uniform wiring, wavy, jig bottom step, pulling with a rod, twitch chaotic clockwork. Fishing is quite simple – casting to a depth from a shallow and wiring at the bottom along the dump, if the hunt is for a large humpback feeding at the bottom. Uniform, stepped or wave-like wiring is used. Or throwing a feeding cauldron perch into the intended place. Often, in this case, you don’t need to invent anything – uniform wiring is the best, you can combine it with a wave-like one, as in the photo – demonstrating the animation capabilities of the Japanese wobbler MV-1 Vibration:
It is important to feel the vibration of the rattlin. If this does not happen, you should increase the speed of the drive, the pulling force, change the bait or tackle.
Choosing ratlin for a summer perch: general principles, rating of the best vibes
Sinking and fast-sinking ratlings are used, this allows you to quickly deliver the bait to the required wiring horizon. Summer rattles almost always have a rattle-rattle for additional predator attraction.

Secrets of fishing for perch on vibes during freeze-up
The winter perch often prefers the rattlin to the balancer, which has a more active high-amplitude game, which is so to the liking of the striped.
Tackle
For winter fishing for perch on ratlin, a regular rod for balancers is suitable. The nod is necessarily firm, but empathetic. The rod must be responsive to all movements of both the angler and the lures in free fall. Monofilament line 0.12-0.2, the diameter is selected depending on the conditions and the size of the trophies.
Tactics and strategy – from site selection to animation options
Ratlins work in the same locations as balancers, but often perform better or comparable. Dumps, curbs, deep-sea plateaus, relief changes, edges of reeds and other vegetation. The most preferred depth is in the region of 3-5 meters, for great depths – large baits; for small ones – smaller ones. Also, larger baits are needed if fishing takes place on the current. Animation option – tossing the ratling, then a pause and free fall of the bait without pulling the line at the end of the fall, another small pause, where the bait continues to play, then a new toss and all the stages in a circle. Variations on the theme – growing up can be a lot of stepped, chaotic, you can increase or decrease the pause, you can also do the fall stage on a stretched line. A bite can be expected during a pause, during a fall, less often on a rise.The selection of the desired animation is done based on the preferences of the fish, its activity, and the specific type of bait.
