Carp fishing in October

October is such a month that is simply ideal for catching carp, because they are already quite fat by the winter period, and therefore the dishes from them are simply amazing. In addition, you can even salt crucian carp, even boil fish soup out of them, but fried crucian carp are especially good - the taste is simply amazing. That is why many anglers go to catch carp in October.

Features of the behavior of crucian carp in October

For October, crucians are no longer pecking as intensely as in summer or spring. Although all the same, the fishing process for crucian carp is quite an interesting activity. With the onset of October, it becomes already noticeably cooler, although in the daytime it is still more or less warm in most regions, except for the North. But the water is already noticeably cooler, because the crucians are trying to go a little deeper into the reservoir, hiding in all kinds of pits and water ravines.

If the weather is sunny outside, then crucians peck noticeably more willingly. It is best to catch carp in October from nine or ten in the morning until two or three in the afternoon. After that, the intensity of the bite of crucians noticeably decreases. At this time, crucian carp are already gathering in flocks, and are patrolling the entire reservoir. At this time, crucian carp prefer food of animal origin; in the process of feeding them, chopped grain worms and maggots should be added to the porridge.

Crucian carp is found in almost all water bodies of our country, but still, lake water bodies are its primary habitats. It is on such reservoirs that a more suitable habitat for this fish is formed.

In October, crucians no longer have enough animal food in the form of larvae, flies and similar food, so they increasingly have to comb large areas of reservoirs. The crucians themselves stray into small flocks, and therefore, when catching one individual, there is a high probability of catching other crucians.

The crucians themselves are increasingly found in the deeper layers of the water of the reservoir. In the event that the water warms up on sunny days, they can approach coastal areas. Most of all, crucian carp spend time at depth, especially in lake ravines or pits, where they are slowly preparing for winter time. Fishing is best carried out from morning and o'clock until three in the afternoon.

Tackle for fishing for crucian carp in October

In October, crucian carp are best caught using rigs such as rubber bands, especially when the weather is windy. A heavy weight is placed on the elastic band, which prevents the wind and waves from demolishing the equipment. In addition, a lot of hooks are attached to the elastic, and therefore the probability of a positive catch is higher.

The main tackle when catching carp in October was and still is a float rod. Such rods are taken from four to six meters in length, in some cases even longer. The coil is chosen as inertialess. The fishing line is taken with the parameters of its diameter of 0.18 to 0.4 millimeters. Numbers of hooks for catching crucian carp in the region of the fifth or sixth. At the same time, hooks with an elongated forearm are selected.

The choice of floats should be such that they are highly sensitive. This is necessary in order to notice small and inconspicuous bites of crucian carp in time. Many fishermen make floats in their own way - an ordinary feather is taken. The sinker should be taken in the region of one and a half to two grams.

Recently, crucian carp have been caught with a spinning rod. And more and more fishermen are switching to this tackle. In this case, it is better to use silicone baits that imitate a variety of worms and bloodworms, leeches.

The choice of bait for crucian carp in October

For successful fishing for crucian carp, you need to properly feed it. At the same time, large doses of a feeding agent should not be given so that the crucian does not overeat. In this case, he will stop biting and leave full and satisfied. The best option would be bait in the morning, no more needed.

For feeding, you can use a mixture of bloodworms, boiled corn and a little sand. In some cases, it can be used to add a dough-like mass to the bait, which will contribute to a longer spread of the bait itself in the reservoir, thereby luring carp.

Fishing for carp should be done using baits of animal origin, such as:

• - worms;
• - bloodworm;
• - maggots;
• - leeches;
• - The sandwich looks good.

Fishing from the shoreline will require a rod with a length of five to seven meters. At this time, crucians are hiding in the depths of the reservoir. After top dressing, you should wait around half an hour and throw the equipment. At the same time, when fishing with a fishing rod, it is necessary to select more sensitive floats that will allow you to notice crucian bites. The casting process is carried out away from the coastline.

In October, the crucian carp has already eaten up, and therefore it provides quite worthy resistance to the fisherman. Playing should not be made sharp, you need to moderately bring it to the shore. Fishing from a boat will be better with winter rods. Fishing is carried out on a mormyshka. In this case, it is better to anchor the boat.

Catching carp in October for spinning

Until recently, many fishermen did not think about the spinning method of catching crucian carp. But at this time, this method no longer surprises anyone. Fishing is carried out with a micro jig or with the help of mormyshkas.

Ultralight or light rods are most suitable. The test load on the rod is not more than seven grams. At the same time, the structure of the spinning rod itself should be rigid, but with all this, of an elastic nature. A spinning reel is placed on this spinning rod. It is better to take a fishing line with a braided line or fluorocarbon, its strength parameters are in the region of 2-3 kilograms. A leash is used.

When catching crucian carp in this way, crucian carp take better on silicone baits or mormyshkas. But you should select their small options, due to the small parameters of the crucian mouth. Colors of baits should be natural shades.
