Illustration of flying lead fishing method and drift adjustment method

The diagram of the flying lead fishing method and the floating adjustment method are as follows:

The standard definition of flying lead fishing is to lower the lead skin seat to the floating seat and pull it a little, which is also called the lead fishing method. This is called flying lead fishing. From a principle point of view, without changing the fishing group, the distance from the fishhook to the lead sinker is extended, the length of the sub-line is increased in disguise, the distance from the lead sinker to the floating seat is reduced, and the length of the waterline is reduced in disguise.

The changes in the length of the sub-line and the length of the waterline also affect the changes in the movement of the fishing group after it enters the water. This is the essence of flying lead fishing. The flying lead fishing method can be used to catch the bottom or float, and the probability of catching float is higher.

If the length of the sub-line is extended and the length of the waterline is reduced, what changes will be made to the action of the fishing group after it enters the water? After the fishing group enters the water, the lead pendant will sink into place with the fishing group. If the water line is short, the lead pendant will be in place early, and the float will stand up earlier. Then the sub-line continues to swing downward. The longer the sub-line, the greater the amplitude of the swing and the shorter the time to reach the position.

This is the characteristic of flying lead fishing. The swing amplitude of the sub-line becomes larger, and the time for the bait to be in place becomes longer, giving the fish more time to eat the bait. The swinging bait also attracts fish better. Effect. Therefore, the bait cannot be heavy, which is also an important factor in making flying lead fishing fun.

Comparison of several flying lead fishing methods

1. Half-flying lead

Half-flying lead means that the lead falls between the eight-shaped ring and the floating seat. It is close to the lead pendant. The greater the swing amplitude of the sub-line, the earlier the float will be erected. Therefore, the key point of semi-flying lead is to control the height of the lead pendant to achieve the effect of the bait starting to swing in a certain water layer, with the purpose of finding the fish layer. , or lure fish to a certain water layer for fishing.

So flying lead fishing is mostly used to catch floating fish, and is almost only used to catch crucian carp in winter when fishing for the bottom. The water layer in which the bait swings can be controlled by the distance of the flying lead or by adjusting the position of the floating seat.

2. Full flying lead

Full flying lead is easier to explain. It is also commonly known as fishing for water skin. There are two operating methods. One is to pull the lead pendant to the floating seat. Below, next to each other. Or the lead sheet is wrapped on the floating feet of the float, which means it is a bit of a self-supporting float. After the fishing group enters the water, the float stands up and the bait swings from the water surface to a certain water layer.

This fishing method is very useful for catching small fish with water skin, such as white stripes, cocked mouths, etc. The advantage is that the float stands up quickly, unlike the normal fishing method when the float has a mouth. Lying at the bottom of the water. However, there is a big problem with all-flying lead, which is that the fishing water layer is deep, which will affect the transmission of signals. Because the fishhook is too far away from the lead pendant, the water line and sub-lines are prone to not being straight, so all-flying lead is mainly used. Suitable for fishing in relatively shallow water layers.

3. Double flying lead

Double flying lead is a combination of half flying lead and full flying lead. The operation method is to adjust the float normally, determine the fishing water depth, and then cut off a part of the lead sheet. The seat is wrapped around the floating feet of the float, and the original lead seat is pulled upwards.

The advantage of this is that the sub-line still increases the swing amplitude like a half-flying lead, but the standing speed of the floating seat is much faster, which is more conducive to seeing the floating phase and grasping the interface. This method of wrapping the lead seat around the floating feet is only suitable for fishing small fish. If you catch big fish, the line will be easily damaged.
