Why did Xiaoyu leave us?

Why is there a saying that big fish enter the nest and drive away small fish?

Reason 1: As the saying goes, "big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, shrimp eat mud", this is biological The most basic predatory relationship

If small miscellaneous fish find some predatory fish when they are grabbing our bait, they will definitely run away. After all, if you run too late, you may lose your life. Common predatory fish Fish include snakehead fish, bass, mandarin fish, cocked fish, catfish, etc.

Even when faced with some carp, grass carp and other omnivorous fish that will not prey on their own species, due to differences in body size, Xiaoza Fish will generally retreat for three minutes

Reason 2: Everyone has experienced or heard of such a situation: when fishing in the wild, miscellaneous fish make a serious noise in the nest at the beginning, and while fishing, they find that the nest suddenly becomes quiet. , and then caught a big fish

This phenomenon often happens, and over time fishing friends will form two concepts:

1. The sudden silence in the nest means that there is a big fish. The fish is coming

2. When the big fish comes, the small fish runs away

These two concepts cannot be wrong, nor are they 100% correct

When fishing in the wild, you may have always thought wrong whether the small fish will be driven away when the big fish enter the nest.

After these years of fishing, my personal feeling is: it is possible for the big fish to enter the nest. It will drive away the small fish, but it may also be driven away by the small fish, or both may exist

Don’t rush to complain, you might as well read my thoughts. The first situation has been mentioned before After that, let’s focus on the last two situations

1. It depends on what kind of fish it is

If the big fish enters the nest and drives away the small fish, then what is a big fish and a small fish? Which ones?

Let’s talk about big fish first. Generally speaking, when we fish with hand rods, we mostly focus on omnivorous fish, such as crucian carp, carp, grass, bream, silver carp, bighead carp, etc.

As mentioned above, these fish will not prey on small fish such as white stripes and wheat ears, but the difference in size makes the small miscellaneous fish retreat by three points

Since they do not pose a fatal threat, the small fish I won’t be able to escape very far, and I might even try to grab the bait. If you chase me, I’ll run away. If you don’t chase me, you’ll grab me again. You can’t kill me anyway

Let’s talk about small fish. The annoying miscellaneous fish that often make nests are mainly wheat ears, white strips, milkfish, boatmen, catfish, gobies, etc.

Some of these fish live in the middle and upper waters, and some live in the middle and upper waters. Foraging in the entire water layer, they will grab our bait as soon as it enters the water. For some bottom-dwelling fish, there may be no chance to eat it, especially in deep water areas

Secondly, some miscellaneous fish are more courageous. They will be particularly interested in objects that fall into the water as long as the movement is not too loud. Regardless of whether they can be eaten or not, they will grab them first. Unlike big fish, they have to test for a long time

One more thing: small fish are interested in atomization They particularly like baits with high potency and strong taste, but they will also grab corn and wheat, but they just can’t swallow it or bite it into pieces

2. It depends on the size of the fish and the size of the group

A big fish weighing more than ten kilograms may be a bit intimidating when encountering a group of small miscellaneous fish, but if this "big fish" only weighs one or two kilograms, or two or three kilograms, the miscellaneous fish may not be afraid

Similarly, when a group of big fish encounters a group of miscellaneous fish, the latter will definitely retreat, but when a big fish faces a group of miscellaneous fish, it is hard to say who is afraid of whom

3. Big fish The fish's hunger level and interest in bait

A big fish is very hungry, and if there is a large group of small fish, it may fight for it. If it is full or in a state where it can eat or not, Seeing the small fish gathering around eating bait, I am too lazy to grab it

In addition, the bait we use also has something to do with it. If the bait is in the right direction, the appetite will be stronger. If the bait is not in the right direction, even if there are no small fish, it will If you are not interested, you will spit it out even if you eat it in your mouth

Understanding these three points, how will it help in actual fishing

1. Know that small fish and big fish may not come in Therefore, you must use those tricks to prevent miscellaneous fish from making nests, and you must not give up after a while

If you cannot avoid small fish, you must increase the probability of big fish entering the nest and stimulate their desire to bite the hook. .

For example, catch some whole grains so that small fish cannot eat them, but big fish can be retained when they come; use some highly targeted bait according to the habits of the target fish

Catching big fish , when fishing for slippery fish, don’t think about using flavor additives to “cheat” them. The strong taste of small medicines will arouse the vigilance of big fish only in one aspect. The main thing is whether the bait has real ingredients

2. Know Big fish and small fish may coexist in the same den, so when fishing, don’t think that the big fish will come only when the small fish suddenly stop talking

Since you want to catch big fish, you have to keep fishing at all times Be careful, maybe a second ago the small fish were still making noise, and as soon as you turned around, went to the toilet, or lit a cigarette, the pole was dragged away

Summarize your views:

When the big fish comes, the small fish will run away. This makes sense in most cases, but it is not absolute

Fishing involves a lot of knowledge. There is no need to study in depth, as long as you are happy, but just because you like fishing to be simple, you cannot deny people who "complicate" fishing
