Tackle "crucian killer" - the perfect solution for fishing at any time of the year. In addition, it is suitable for fishing on a spinning rod or ordinary fishing rod. In the summer season, when the crucian is full, fishing on the feeder rod with the “crucian killer” equipment will be most effective. Such tackle from various manufacturers can be found in fishing stores, or you can do it yourself.
Using the Carp Killer snap-in
Catching crucian carp on the "crucian killer" is possible in small ponds, as well as in deep reservoirs. In this case, both a light picker and a heavy feeder are used. The fishing line must be used wicker, because it accurately conveys the bite and does not stretch. Leashes should be short to be near the feeder. The “crucian killer” tackle is attached to the main fishing line with the help of a small carbine.
As a bait, as a rule, a sufficiently large piece of polystyrene is used so that the crucian cannot swallow the hook. In addition, this material lifts the hook from the bottom. Several hooks immediately clings to the tackle of the “crucian killer”, due to which the likelihood of catch increases significantly. As a bait, a dough or a trowel can be used. In order that the bait does not erode and does not fly apart when hit with water, you should fill it as densely as possible.
The benefits of homemade gear
Many fishermen believe that crucian carp are a rather stupid fish, as a result of which they return home without a catch. Therefore, you can’t do without special gear. In this case, branded gear, as a rule, have certain disadvantages. Among them, it should be noted that the hook is tied tightly, or it is difficult to quickly change the sinkers.
Therefore, the do-it-yourself “killer carp” tackle can solve many problems. At a minimum - it is possible to make the required number of feeders and hooks, as well as to catch immediately on several types of bait and bait.
Thanks to homemade gear, you can change the sinker at any time, depending on the depth of the reservoir, the strength of the wind and the current. However, the main advantage of such equipment is a high level of sensitivity. Therefore, self-trimming occurs at a time when the supply of fishing line reaches the bead located above the hook attachment, and before that, when biting, you can make a hook.
Materials for making gear
In order to make the do-it-yourself “Killer Crucible” tackle with your own hands, you need simple tools and inexpensive materials that every fisherman has.
You will need:
- A few springs.
- 3-5 hooks (No. 6-8).
- Rubber locks.
- Fishing line or cord with a diameter of about 0.3 mm.
- Thread or leash line.
- A few swivels with snaps.
- Cargo.
It is better to choose a spring, inside which there is a tube through which you can pass the line. Each spring must be fixed with rubber stoppers at a distance of about 10 cm from each other.
We make the do-it-yourself killer crucian’s tackle
In order to make this tackle, you should attach a swivel to one end of the thread, from which it is necessary to deviate 10-12 cm and fix the bead. To do this, you need to pass a thread through it twice and secure it with a double knot. After that, another swivel is put on the thread, the second bead is fixed in the same way as the first.
The feeder is put on the thread so that it moves freely on it. Then again comes the swivel, which is fixed by a bead, and another feeder is attached. Such a tool for crucian carp may contain a different number of feeders. The last element should be a bead. After that, a sinker of the required size is hung on the first fixed swivel.
Ready tackle must be equipped with hooks. It is desirable that the length of the leash of each of them be less than 6 cm. In this case, the leashes can be made of fishing line or thread.
Features of manufacturing gear
In the manufacture of gear it is very important to follow simple rules. First of all, use as few nodes as possible. The fact is that no matter what knot you knit, the more there are, the weaker the gear.
Do-it-yourself “killer crucible” tackle is easy to make. However, it will have maximum efficiency if you use different bait in the springs. Thus, it will be possible to catch not only crucian carp, but also fish of other species.
If springs of the same weight are used, but there is no load at the end of the tackle, you should attach the last spring a little heavier than the rest. Only in this way the equipment will lie flat on the bottom, and also not be confused when casting.
Fishing tactics
The crucian killer feeder is ideally suited for fishing in water bodies of any depth and various current strengths. However, there are certain rules for fishing with homemade gear.
First of all, it is necessary to determine the place of casting. To do this, immediately throw several feeders in different places. Casting range can be limited if you attach the fishing line to the reel using clips.
Throw gear and wait for them to sink to the bottom. To make it convenient to follow such a rod, it is best to put it on a special stand. When biting, you can notice a quick jerk, and after it - sagging fishing line. When using homemade gear for catching crucian carp on a feeder, you can see even a slight bite.
Now you know how to make a "crucian killer." You can use this tackle to catch any large fish, such as roach, carp, carp, bleak and other peaceful species.
