Information on how to make a do-it-yourself bulldozer for catching perch in winter and how to fish with this equipment is contained in the article.
Acquaintance with the device
Balda is a winter bait, with which you can catch predatory fish. Many fishermen practice catching perch, ruff, pike and zander on the bulldozer. Also, this equipment is used for large roach, bream and crucian carp. Among the fishermen, this bait is also called a "fool". Judging by numerous reviews, the bastard is a very effective and catchy fishing device.
About device
When fishing perch in the winter on the bulldozer, many fishermen use tough and not very long rods. This is due to the fact that the bait is quite heavy. In the design of the classic version of the buld, there is a drop-shaped lead sinker and two hooks, the sharp points of which are directed in different directions from the body of the bait. The hooks are fastened to the weight by means of a tightening loop from the scaffold. It is important that their size be less than the lead part. Additionally, hooks can be equipped with red, yellow and black beads.
On the advantages of "durilki"
Judging by numerous reviews, the following strengths of these baits can be distinguished:
- Due to the decent weight of the bulds, nothing prevents its movement to the bottom of the reservoir. The bait sinks to the bottom regardless of accumulated pieces of ice or strong currents.
- For catching perch on the bulldozer, you can not use additional feeding tips. The bait without them is very effective.
- The bulda is characterized by a bright design that can interest fish.
- These baits have a simple construction. You can make them at home.
About weaknesses
Despite the presence of undeniable advantages, the buld is not without a drawback. The weakness of the bait is its versatility. Due to the very natural design of these snap-ins, they can be of interest for other species of fish. If a pike attacks the bulldozer, then most likely the fisherman will no longer see his equipment. Often, a pike bites off the bait and carries with it. In an effort to rectify the situation, the owners in the cannons replace leash leads with steel or fluorocarbon threads. Judging by the many reviews, fluorocarbon leads are much stronger than steel. In addition, such snap-ins are hardly noticeable in the water column, since they lack a metallic luster.
How to make a bald for catching perch? Where to begin?
According to many fishermen, it is not necessary to buy branded equipment. If you have the right tool and raw materials, you can make the bait yourself at home. Work should begin with the manufacture of weights. Some fishermen get ready-made lead products. However, many anglers still prefer to use fully homemade baits. A home craftsman will need lead and gypsum. The latter will be used to make molds for weights. Experienced craftsmen recommend preparing several teardrop-shaped shapes of various sizes. When the gypsum has finally solidified, molten lead can be poured into it. Each cast piece, after being removed from the mold, must be carefully processed with a file. You can also use a small file for this purpose. Then the upper narrower part of the weight is equipped with a through hole.
About snap hooks
At this stage of the work, the master needs to pick up hooks for his workpiece. During the selection, it is important that the length of the hook does not exceed the size of the lead weight. This is considered the main condition in the manufacture of artisanal bulds. Additionally, hooks can be equipped with multi-colored cambrices. After completing these steps, the wizard can begin installation work. Their essence is to attach both hooks to the sinker using a fishing line. Experienced fishermen recommend threading the fishing line first into the first hook, then into the lead body of the snap, and then into the second hook. The production of the bulds is completed with the formation of a non-tightening knot. After these actions, the bait is considered ready for use.
About other options for "homemade"
Judging by consumer reviews, other materials may also be raw materials for making a sinker. A weight can also be made of tungsten, bronze, brass and copper. Depending on the preferences of the fisherman, the bulda can take any form. Mostly "durilki" are brown or green. According to many fishermen, perch will be better to peck if the lower part of the bait is painted red.
The only problem is that the paint can not stay on lead for a long time. After several trips to the ice, these products have to be updated. Well-established bait, made in the form of a rattle. Make it easy. It is enough to make a small cavity in the lower part of the weight. Then equip it with small balls or bearings. After that, the hole is sealed.
When can I start fishing?
According to experienced fishermen, you can fish perch using a variety of methods. Nevertheless, for private fishing in the winter, the most effective tooling is precisely the “dope”. The homeland of this method is the Far East. Judging by the reviews, many practice fishing for perch on the buld in the fall. However, according to experts, the use of "dope" is very effective with the advent of the first ice. It is recommended to go to water bodies after at least 24 days. At this time, the perch is in a state of zhora, as in the period before spawning. As ice builds up, the fish moves farther from the coast. A particularly good bite is observed at the end of December. Mostly, the perch on the upper reaches of the river beds became the locations of the perch. In severe frost, fish can be found in deep holes. According to experienced fishermen, the best time to catch large perch on the buld is considered to be calm, calm weather. Regarding the time of day, no recommendations are available. It so happens that you can completely sit out all day and only in the evening the fish will start to peck.
About technology
Catching perch on the bulldozer will be successful if the fisherman has chosen the right tactics in finding fish. In addition, it is important to be able to keep the perch in the place of fishing. For this purpose, experts practice bait fish with a small bloodworm or mormyshki. According to experienced fishermen, without bait in this case can not do. You should start winter fishing with drilling holes. Then it needs to be checked for fish. This can be done by lowering the "dope" to the bottom of the reservoir. Often the fish begins to peck as soon as the bait is immersed in water. Many fishermen practice underwater shooting when catching perch on the bulldozer. This will make it possible to see how the fish reacts to the bait.
In the process of fishing, the tension of the fishing line should be moderate, and the nod of the rod tilted down. Often the bite begins quickly and the person does not have time to prepare a snap. Therefore, it is advisable to adjust the fishing rod with a nod at the very beginning. The bait will come to life if the fisherman is well versed in the game. To do this, you need to perform a small wave of the rod so that the "dope" jumps up a little. Then the fishing rod returns to its previous position. The balda should fall to the bottom. As a result of the impact, a small cloud of turbidity is formed. It is necessary to wait some time for the donkey to be raised from the bottom. Similar actions should be repeated up to ten times. If the perch has not started to bite, then you need to go fishing in another hole.
It happens that a fish swims close to the bait, but does not take it. In this case, there is the following trick. It is enough for the fisherman after hitting the “durilka” along the bottom of the reservoir, using a fishing rod to move the bulldozer. In this case, the lead sinker will remain in the same place, and the “game” is carried out by moving hooks on which multi-colored cambrices or beads are attached. After each stroke and movement, pauses should be made. Judging by the numerous reviews, this method of luring is very effective. The Cambrian game will be interesting even for the most passive perch. If an overly cautious individual comes across, seasoned anglers recommend using the third method of playing with bait. It is carried out by performing measured movements with the rod. It is important that their amplitude is high. Otherwise, the hooks cannot be tangled. Then the “dope” should be raised into the uppermost layer of water and sharply lowered back to the bottom.
The process of perch fishing will be more effective if the techniques are correctly combined. The main thing is that the postings follow one after another, and there are no long pauses between them.
Finally
Fishing perch on the bulldozer is a rather fascinating activity. This method was used back in the 70s. The technique is constantly evolving and improving. Today everyone can use it and please themselves with an excellent catch.
