The grabber is a fishing tackle
A fishing tackle called a grabber is an active tackle that consists of a float, fishing line, wings and four springs. The method of fishing is quite simple. You need to carefully arrange the gear and get close to it, waiting for the fish to get into it and hit the side wing. Then quickly, jerk it should be raised up. The mechanism is designed so that the fish either gets entangled in the wing or is caught by the prevailing lift.
This method of fishing is used all year round. A grabber is a tackle for catching river fish that does not hibernate and moves in a pond. In addition, you can fish around the clock. For
night fishing use additional illumination. For example, crucian carp is very easy to lure by lighting the hole with a flashlight.
DIY grabber is easy
Despite the abundance of various kinds of fishing gear, many fishermen use their own gear. And the quality of fishing does not suffer from this. It should be noted right away that a grabber is a fairly simple and convenient tool that is easy to make with your own hands.
What you need to make a grabber
The secret of its production is quite simple. We will need:
- cloth network;
- the network is fishing;
- insulating tape on a cloth basis;
- springs - 4 pcs;
- fishing line;
- a small wire ring;
- lead sinker;
- float;
- the cord.
A filament network with a small mesh diameter of about 0.3 cm is taken as the basis. For triangular wings, it is better to take a stronger, fishing net, because the wings are the main blow when fishing. In order for the grabber to successfully slam shut without getting entangled in the springs, they are wrapped with electrical tape. It is better to take the one on a fabric basis, unlike synthetic, it can withstand cold. From the fishing line we construct 4 rods, each fixed at the ends of the rods, freely stretching them through the side cells. At the top, all rods are brought together in a wire ring, securing in the hole of the float. The pull cord is also attached here - with its help, you can control the gear. Another important element of the gear called a grabber is the springs that attach to the central load. Lowering to the bottom, tackle due to the load should open and take a horizontal position. And when a fish gets into it, slam it shut when rising and prevent the prey from leaving.
It is also necessary that the rods slide freely without clinging or tangling. It is better to choose a load from lead, and its weight should take into account the depth, amount of gear and current. The ends of all four springs should be at the base of the sinker. The fishing line is attached to it.
As you can see, a do-it-yourself grabber is quite uncomplicated in execution. The main thing is to take into account all the recommendations and correctly use the necessary material. Then fishing will be successful and bring not only a good catch, but also pleasure from the process itself.
