A fishing ring is a simple but surefire way to get home with a catch. It was invented in very ancient times and was originally known as “Florentine” or “Florentine”. This method of fishing is named after the city in which it was invented - Florence.
Equipment
Fishing on a ring from a boat requires bulky equipment. First of all, of course, the boat itself should be. Many fishermen prefer it to be rubber, because there is much less noise from it, which is important, because loud sounds can frighten off prey. However, fishing in a wooden or metal boat is much more convenient. You must have two anchors available, with which you can fix the boat across the river. They must be reliable enough to withstand the flow.
Feeder
The fisherman must take with him something as a bait, when the catch is on the ring. When fishing, porridge is especially popular. There are many different recipes for preparing it, which are handled ahead of time. In a mild course, a regular nylon mesh bag made from onions or other vegetables can act as a feeder. Something heavy must be placed inside. It can be an ordinary stone weighing 1-3 kg. A long loop is made on top of the bag, from which the cord will go to the boat. If the river flow is faster and stronger, then another one should be chosen
for fishing for fishing on the ring. In this case, you can use a transparent plastic jar. Depending on the strength of the current, small holes are made in it with a hot nail or larger with a soldering iron. As a load, it is most convenient to use a lead “blank” attached to the outside of the can with a bolt and two washers. To fix the feeder, it is best to use a fishing line with a diameter of 0.8-1 mm. It does not sail, unlike an ordinary rope or cord, and it can be installed strictly vertically from the boat to the bottom of the reservoir.
What is a fishing ring?
With this method of fishing using a short rod (not more than 70 cm). You can take any coil. Fishing line will need a little. 15 meters on a reel will be enough. Directly on this fishing line is a ring. It is made from lead. In the ring, which plays the role of a sinker, there is a slot in which it is necessary to thread the line coming from the feeder. After that, it should be tightly clamped. From the ring to the main fishing line there is a leash 15-20 meters long and a release of about 2.5-3 meters, on which the hooks are located. They should be single with a long forearm, for easier extraction from fish. The size of the hook should be chosen depending on how big the fish you intend to catch. As a bait, it is best to take animal baits: maggots or worms. At the same time, they can be strung one at a time, or several at once, so that small fish do not eat it. When all preparations are completed, the ring is lowered into the water and lies directly on the feeder, and the fishing line with hooks is lowered downstream. As a result, the fish do not have to wait long. You can often notice that she immediately gets on the hook, as soon as the ring sank into the water. In fishing, this method is considered very prey, but it can hardly be called sports.
