River sport fishing, emotion, and adrenaline in equal parts
- This type of fishing is developed in rivers, lakes, swamps, dams, and everything that has to do with fresh water. For example, there are many species in the fluvial fishing that the sports fisherman looks for with a lot of tenacity; among them, we can find the trout, the different species of carp, lobinas, tencas, clarias, etc. All these fluvial species are of great emotion for the sport fisherman, since each one of them, needs specific techniques of fishing to be able to be successful in the catches.
- In the case of trout, for example, fly-fishing is the technique most commonly used to catch them. This requires quite advanced skills in terms of experience and use of the technique, especially in the use of the fishing rod, these skills are achieved simply by doing the activity in a repetitive manner, the years make the master fisherman. The trouts are also very caught with the technique called spinning, many times with hard lures, Rapalas type of 2 to 5 cm of size and with vivid colors.
- In the case of carp fishing, you can also use a variety of techniques wide enough to "play" with them: from bottom fishing, to the so-called "fishing on the fly", which is used quite a lot in calm waters, with little activity of the currents, so that the bait and hook can descend slowly to the bottom, because remember that, in this technique the lead is not used, and almost always the fish attacks while the bait is slowly sliding towards the depths.
Which baits are the best in river fishing?
- There are countless types of bait for river fishing since there are countless species that inhabit this type of acute sweet, here you can see which are the best bait to fish in rivers and river waters, and the best results from the experience of hundreds of fishermen friends. I promise you that if you put them into practice, the results of captures will be exceptional. There are different opinions and points of view as there are fishermen, what if I can assure you is that the results of catches are tested with the baits listed below. For me, without a doubt, they are the best baits to fish in freshwater.
- And when I refer to rivers, I am also referring to lakes, dams, etc. Since we talked about the wonderful world of the sport of fishing, these baits have been tested, I hope they are to your liking, let's go!
Shrimp from rivers
- The first place was given to the always effective river shrimp. Although they are not as easy to find as earthworms, they are even more effective than earthworms when it comes to good catches. Because these shrimp live precisely in the water of rivers and lakes, the predators in that area are much more accustomed to savoring them, so when they fall into the water as bait, they are devoured almost instantly.
Earthworm
- For excellence, one of the best baits for river fishing, are easy to use, and above all, abound in large numbers in most countries. They are regularly found on the same banks of rivers, the land (black preferably), should be wet but not too wet, you should look for places where there is plenty of shade because the sun makes the worms look for depth and it becomes quite difficult to find them. Very valuable advice is that where you find worms, you must return the earth to the same hole you made, this will help when you return another day for more worms, you can find them in the same place.
- Another very easy place to find earthworms, is in the drains of the dairy or stables; although they are not very pleasant places for the smell they give off, if I can assure you, that the abundance of earthworms in these areas is immense, in addition, that most that you will find are of strong constitution, much more effective to attract freshwater species.
Small vinyl and rubber worms
- In the artificial part of the baits for river fishing, vinyl lures about 5 cm in size, are lethal to carp, trout, black bass, etc, everything is logically in the study you have of the fishing area to know which is the most effective. Artificial worms, especially those that have a lot of shine inside, also become infallible bait for most species in river fishing.
