First, the first thing you hear about catfish is that they are usually very voracious. The feeding habits of these fish are quite diverse and they have a wide range of food including bread, worms, worms, small fish, larvae, insects, frogs, mice and even birds that come down to the water's edge to drink.
Catfish, which can be found in almost all our fresh waters in our country, is a powerful fish species and hunting offers an enjoyable experience. Catfish fishing is usually carried out using single or double bottom hooks or cork tackle. These fish can be caught from readily available baits, such as fish meat, chicken livers and worms. At the same time, they can also fall into the fishing line with the baits we mentioned above.
Catfish are found in many streams of our country and it is important to use the right fishing line and technique for those who want to hunt these fish. Bottom line is generally an effective method to achieve successful results in catfish fishing. You can catch beautiful catfish using a lead suitable for the current and the distance to be thrown (usually between 15 and 25 grams is enough) and a 2-arm bottom fishing rod and bait such as worms, chicken livers or fish pieces.
Catfish, found in almost all fresh waters in Turkey, are strong and hardy fish, so fishing is a great source of pleasure for fishermen. They are usually fished with bottom line, but can also be caught using float fishing gear in suitable waters. They can be caught with many different baits, such as catfish, small fish, worms, worms, bread, chicken liver, frogs.
Horse-pull method can also be used for catfish fishing. Especially in the early morning, during the feeding hours of the catfish, you can hunt for catfish by using silicon worms, silicon mice or frogs. Since there is a possibility of big catfish coming in this type of fishing, it is important to pay attention to the fact that the fishing line used is strong, so that both the fish do not escape and a fish is not sent to nature with a needle.
Finally, we can share a delicious bait recipe for catfish: worms and chicken livers are one of the common baits for catfish fishing. However, the biggest problem of these baits is that they are difficult to stay on the needle. The lungs you have inserted can usually easily come out of the needle and cause a waste of time.
