Bait of animal origin
There are days when the fish gives preference to baits of animal origin. Let's describe what these baits are and how to prepare them. And in case the fisherman even forgot the baits at home, he can always find them in nature, in the meadow, near the river, because they are all natural, created by nature and familiar to the fish. Here is a brief description of the following baits of animal origin:
- red dung worm,
- earthworm, or earthworm (wormworm),
- Meat worm (oparry),
- chorobac (May beetle larvae),
- brookworm,
- moth,
- dragonfly larvae (broadbill),
- crayfish shakes,

- kuzka,
- alenka,
- bark beetle,
- grasshopper,
- dragonfly,
- moth,
- various caterpillars,
- flies,
- lawn (small shell),
- bivalves,
- baitfish,
- lungs,
- pork fat
Red dung worm
Almost all fish are willingly caught on this bait. Red dung worm has a dark red or red color with yellow belts. It can be easily found in over-cooked manure, rotting hay, humus from leaves. Dug out dung worm should not be immediately baited on the hook, as it has a bitter taste and fish does not take it well.
Worms are prepared 3 days before fishing. Then they are placed in a worm bin - a jar with hay straw or floor half with earth, watered with borsch, soup or coffee grounds. After 3-4 days dung worms become hard, elastic, lose the bitter taste, and then the fish willingly swallows them.
Earthworm or earthworm (wormworm)
The size of the earthworm or earthworm is large and therefore it is not suitable for catching small fish, but large fish take it well.
After ten days on the straw at night collect a lot of worms, and under the straw you can find them in the daytime. On the earthworm catch large bream, tench, yazya, chub and even catfish.
Meat worm (oparychus)
To prevent birds from nibbling the worms, the meat and the tin are covered with a sparse net stretched on hoops. It is used as bait for bream, roach, crucian carp, redfin, carp.
Chrobak (May beetle larva)
Brookworm
The pouch is carefully broken and the worm is extracted, which is baited on the hook through the head. Keep the grub in the water. Rucheynik is a good bait for roach, yazya, bleak and other white fish.
Moth
The silt is then washed and larvae are selected. Larvae are stored in a damp cloth. They are planted 2-3 pieces on the hook. Such bait takes almost all fish.
Dragonfly larvae (babka)
Crayfish shakes
Almost all fish take well on crayfish necks, except pike-perch, zander, pike and zherekh. During the molting of crayfish they can be baited entirely on the hook, having previously cleaned them from the hard shell. Moulting crayfish takes well large fish: catfish, pike, carp, chub and yaz. Fish are caught on boiled crayfish, but this bait is worse.
May beetle
Kuzka (July crustacean)
Alenka
Bark beetle
The bark beetle can be kept in flour for a long time, even in winter in a warm place. It is put on the hook through the head. Takes on such bait all year round all white fish and even perch.
Grasshopper (konik)
Catch on the grasshopper is good yaz, chub.
Dragonfly
Moth
Various caterpillars
Flies
Lawn (small shells)
Bait a soft bait on the hook. To do this, it should be well crushed with pliers. This shell should be stored in a box with water. Catch on the lawn: gouster, bream, yazya, carp, redfin, roach, takes it and perch.
Bivalve mollusk
Livebait
Special fishing of predatory fish is mainly done on a live bait - small live fish: gudgeon, spruce, bleak, roach, roach, loach. At the end of the line, adapted for catching predatory fish, tie a steel leash with a live fish and a hook.
- The leash is passed through the mouth, intestines and anus, then to the leash tie a treble hook and attach it with a thin red silk or woolen thread to the tail of the bait, released into the water.
- The leash is passed through the mouth, intestines and anus, then to it tie at the mouth of the animal hook-double, and to the free end of the fishing line.
- The bait is strung by the back on the hook and lowered into the water.
- The live bait (by both lips) is strung on the hook and lowered into the pond. This method is used to bait gudgeon when catching pikeperch.
In all cases, the leash with the bait is connected to the line with a rotating carabinchik, which prevents twisting of the line.
Light
The best bait is chicken and rabbit lungs. They are dried, and during fishing they are cut into pieces and baited with them on hooks. White fish are caught on this bait, especially in winter.
