One of the most popular types of outdoor activities for many members of the stronger sex has been and remains fishing. This is a way to spend leisure time, and an option for the implementation of ancient hunting instincts, and, in the end, excellent trophies. But for fishing to be as effective as possible, you should choose the right fishing gear. Without them, neither in the summer nor in the winter - nowhere. What is meant by this rather broad term? Let's get it right.
Choose gear
If you are going for one-day fishing (this is from morning to evening, for example, but without spending the night), then you can consider the following universal option of equipment, equipment that suits everyone without exception, especially beginners.
Well, firstly, these are all kinds of gear. Without them, you certainly can’t catch fish. However, initially you need to decide who and what you are going to catch. Because, for example, on carp fishing, spinning with a lure or wobbler is almost useless. Fishing gear should be in line with your favorite fishing pattern. Based on this, choose the gear. Perhaps it will be fishing rods, spinning, donka. And for winter fishing - a special tackle with a short rod and mormyshka. If you are new to fishing, don’t choose too cool and super expensive models. A budget but reliable option will be sufficient. Photos of fishing accessories for fishing are presented in the article.
By the way, the concept of tackle also includes baits, bait-baits, a landing net, possibly an electronic or biological bite activator, an echo sounder (but we advise you to do without the latest know-how for the first). Mandatory list: spare hooks, reel, fishing line. In case of a break or hook, breakdown of the mechanism.
Fishing Supplies: Optional List
Such trifles can be very useful:
- hatchet and a small folding knife (multifunctional possible);
- sapper blade and flashlight;
- matches, a lighter, paper or newspaper in order to make a fire;
- spare batteries;
- folding chair, so as not to stand all the time.
Salt can also come in handy. If the catch is large, you can immediately add the fish so that it does not disappear. Still need drinking water, soap. First aid kit must be included in the list of fishing accessories without fail. The set is standard: iodine, cotton wool, bandage, adhesive tape, and other minimum. It is also necessary to take an insect repellent (spray or ointment - no difference, the main thing is that it is effective).
How to dress?
The answer to this question is simple: practical and the weather. In the summer, your clothes should protect to the maximum from sunlight (we’ll talk about winter equipment a little later). On the head - always a hat. Do not forget to take sunglasses (by the way, come in handy both in summer and in winter). They are convenient to monitor the float when glare on the surface of the water or to look at the snowy space without eye fatigue. If it has become cool, and it’s damp near the water, try to dress warmer, but not at the expense of comfort.
Winter fishing accessories
Winter fishing is an exciting activity, but quite extreme. This is probably why avid fishermen adore her. But so that it brings you true pleasure and pleasure from your leisure time, you need to prepare carefully, especially if you are a beginner.
Fishing accessories for winter fishing (see photo below) include a lot of necessary things.
Such as an ice drill and an ice pick, a scoop to remove the remnants of ice from a hole, specific fishing tackle for fishing in winter, a bloodworm and a bloodworm. In addition, it is not superfluous to take a thermos with hot coffee or tea. And also - a folding chair and a small tent for protection from the wind. All this in the cold is very useful to you.
As for clothes, your vestments in winter should be chosen well-retaining heat, windproof, waterproof. You can purchase a branded fishing suit, used for low temperatures, and specially designed for these purposes. If this is not available, we put on a pair of sweaters under the upper — preferably waterproof — clothing. We pack our feet in felt boots (with galoshes - it is necessary, otherwise they will get wet from wet snow), our hands - in warm gloves. But at the same time, try to make your clothes relatively lightweight, practical, not restricting movement.
