Loach hunters use white liquor to soak loaches as bait for fishing. They usually choose smaller loaches, soak them in the liquor until they are drunk and dizzy, then mix them with groundbait. This way, the loaches can move but not run away, and it also has the effect of attracting fish.
What do mudfish enthusiasts use to soak mudfish and use them as bait for fishing?
Loach enthusiasts use baijiu (a type of Chinese liquor) to soak loaches for baiting. Generally, loaches are soaked in baijiu until they become disoriented, at which point they can be used for baiting. Alternatively, loaches can be used directly for baiting, or they can be mixed with sweet corn for baiting.
Loaches have a relatively small range of activity in unfamiliar waters , especially in deeper waters. They generally only move in the middle and upper layers of the water, making them easier to attract. When baiting with loaches, choose live, slightly larger loaches, prepare them, and then release them into the water.
How to bait a loach spot?
1. If using loaches for groundbaiting, choose live, relatively large loaches. If using loaches as hook bait, choose smaller loaches, about the size of a cigarette, as this makes it easier for fish to bite.
2. After choosing a good fishing spot, you can put the loaches that have been treated with white wine into the water. If the number of loaches you put in each time is relatively small, you will need to replenish the bait multiple times. Put in about 15-20 loaches each time, and put them in every 30 minutes or so.
3. After the loach are baited, they will only move around in the water within a 20-30 square meter area around the baiting spot, and this area is the best spot for fishing. Although loaches are omnivorous fish, they prefer animal bait, especially fish eggs. Therefore, once loaches breed in this area, it will have a certain impact on the breeding of other fish in the area.
