The hunt for pike with swimbaits ,so popular in Europe, in our country only grows. These baits are not many on the shelves of retail fishing stores, and a great variety of choices there are still problems. Therefore, the background of the abundance of silicone for jig fishing, the baits and lures are not consolidated and are not specifically looking for their anglers simply do not notice.
This swimbait is actually a bladeless sinking Wobbler with multi-part body. Can be made of wood-plastic (for small and medium-sized models (50-120+ mm)
...and cast in silicone for models 150-200 mm.
Caught on this bait over the edge, snags and other anomalies of the terrain at depths up to 5-7 meters.The main object - the pike. This predator has a glitch - she is not shy and not too lazy to climb a few meters up to the interested object. So the bait is running at a depth of a meter or two above the brow with a depth of 5 meters is easily attacked by the pike standing at the bottom of this edge...
Posting swimbaits in most cases uniform, with different rate of selection of coil cord. The speed variable is selected, while taking into account the buoyancy of the swimbait. And they are slow-sinking and sinking with an average speed of immersion. When you post the right swimbait plays, all of its component parts simulating the movement of a real live fishs. The accuracy is very high!
When fishing on small and medium-sized swimbait with a spinning rod, reel and cord do not need to bother. Fit our conventional tackle for fishing for bait weighing up to 40-50 grams.
For fishing on the large silicone swimbait, whose weight can reach 200 grams of lures, over 20 inches, you will need gear heavy class spinning and 7.6-8+ feet with the appropriate test weight lures baitcasting reel ( bezynertsionnoj this weight bullet is hard), string # 3 ( in the gap to 40+ libro).
Alexander Volynkin, which devotes a lot of time fishing bait large size of all types ( from plugs to silicone) , could not pass Sumbatov)). And shot a great story about fishing with these baits on the Saratov reservoir.
For me fishing with swimbait is not a new thing. They have me in boxes... But to leave the lure in the size of the pan I have not yet had))). I will try...
