How to catch mandarin fish and what bait to use

The favorite food of mandarin fish is live loach, followed by small fish and shrimp. Little loach is the first choice for catching mandarin fish. You can choose a fine live loach with a length of 5 ~ 7 cm and hook it from the back of the loach, so that the loach can still swim in the water and enhance the effect of attracting fish. Little loach also has the habit of making holes. After entering the water, I wanted to hide in the hole and send it to the mouth of the mandarin fish because my body was very painful. The abdomen of loach can also be cut open, and the blood smells fishy, which can increase the effect of attracting fish.

Salmon is also called mandarin fish.
