6 years ago that I started in this exciting world of fishing and wanted to rob my wife the ropes on the clothesline to bring them into line and make sure my fish are not going to escape me, I sinned goes to extreme, but I think that's a situation that happens all novice fisherman, because we use the largest diameter and strength as we can, thinking that at any moment to capture the bass will achieve our dreams, which logically should exceed 10 pounds and what want is to lose it because of our line.
When I met braided lines that give us the advantage of a thin gauge with superior strength, this gave me great peace of mind when driving my catch, so that with them I learned to fight successfully the bass, without despair and I managed to quietly enjoy the moment.
The life and my wife have treated me very well to afford to go fishing almost every weekend, which will finish never appreciated, this together with my patience and perseverance to spend many hours fishing on each output, but that even my very limited knowledge, I have been able to capture a very important amount of bass from those commonly called "Golonas", being the largest of which one of 4,850 Kg., that manages to catch and release at the dam of The Mimbres, this has given me the confidence to do strong tantrums when I was a good fight up, and get to the point of making the fight more exciting jump by lifting the rod tip even knowing that this gave better chance of coming loose if I loosen the tension of the line, all in an effort to increase the degree of difficulty, and gain greater satisfaction to get ahead in the fight, That's how I also reducing the strength of my line, 30 lbs. to 20 lbs (believe it or not eventually get to use 30 pounds), after 20 to 17, from 17 to 15, and now in conventional equipment does not use a line of more than 14 pounds, except in certain circumstances where find much coverage even use heavy braided line up to 30 lbs. resistance.
In this way one day I decided to buy online for £ 8 "special" situations, and in August 1998 in the dam of Youth, in the municipality of Marin NL I got my first decent catch 8-pound line, a bass of not inconsiderable weight of 4.5 kg, captured with a Rat L Trap 1/2 ounce Baby Bass color after many seconds that seemed endless struggle with higher advantages for my opponent, to have achieved in my hands, and this was the beginning of a passion that is called "FISHING LIGHT" which has come to give a different meaning and excitement to my days of fishing, which is what we in the end sports fishermen.
When we fish the angler on conventional knowing how to make proper use of his line (his best ally when fighting their prey) has a very high percentage (80% or maybe I fall short) to beat his opponent, and when we use team "light" perhaps the biggest advantage is for the bass, this forces us to improve ourselves, for the slightest mistake could mean losing the war and with it our "bass" plus our decoy.
Let me make it clear that I am not disparaging who regularly fish with team "conventional" well I use it myself, but rather try to give place to fish ultralight, it is not applicable to all circumstances bass fishing offers.
Bass fishing is in my means more fun than fishing inland waters gives us, and if we use the ultralight equipment, we will be adding an extra degree of difficulty, and thus more challenging to capture this green devil.
FISHING LIGHT
Light finesse fishing or fishing as the fishermen call our northern neighbor (USA) where the light line fishing is very popular, it becomes a complementary technique in our devices to try to catch largemouth bass in very concrete and using special equipment, mainly very light lines.
FISHING EQUIPMENT FOR THE LIGHT
Besides the use of light lines, light fishing also involves the use of special equipment for the launch of the lures that if we seek the pure concept of "LIGHT" also should be light, because if we make use of conventional equipment for use throw light line and small lures and light weight (3/16, 1/16, 1/8, 1/5 of an ounce) get into serious trouble, first a spincast reel or baitcasting fail to throw at distances decent these "mini lures", and secondly to be a fine line-conjugated system of coils keep these reels the line gets stuck easily causing frequent problems when the fish is asking us online, and this can mean the loss of our bass, so that the reel more suited to this technique is the SPINNING REEL, secondly that of spincast, and the last that of baitcasting.
AND CANE
Appropriate when we are fishing with lures, witches, or lures with exposed hooks is the "lightweight", which has the particularity of being very flexible, and this makes a catapult effect that allows us to throw quite considerable distances lures small size and Further the arc made more easily because of its flexibility to fight a bass, double the strength of the line (remember that the arch is the strongest structure in architecture), and when we are fishing with "plastic" bearing the hidden hook, a MEDIUM MEDIUM OR HEAVY are best suited to properly seat the hook, especially the second, although the former will give us a greater degree of difficulty, also helps increase the resistance of the line to give the blow, which is very important.
LINE
Although some feel for fishing light 2, 4, 6 and 8 pounds, when it comes to bass, my opinion is very particular that we should not use strength less than 6 pounds, it is not letting the bass go as "Christmas Trees" full of spheres, since in our setting the sizes of the bass usually are quite large, and 2 and 4 pounds lose many copies before achieving capture one, I repeat this is a very particular opinion and is in the interest of the bass. A server uses the line 6 pounds for lures with exposed hooks, such as troll, witch, tubes, octopus, frogs, grubs, etc., and 8-pound line for those lures, usually plastics (worms, slugos, salamanders, etc.. ) usually mounted with the hook point hidden in the body thereof; This has a rationale, in carrying the bait trolling grounds just minimal movement with the rod to seat the hook, and often the bass digs alone for this but even six pounds, but for plastics that carry hidden hook is required to exercise a much larger force (often not survive the 6 pounds) to cross first the plastic body, and secondly Reinforced jaw of a bass "VETERAN" is essential to protect ourselves with super 8 pounds for not going to break the line at the time of settling the hook.
Another important detail is to get sufficient support line on the reel to the time of the fight, because the bass will demand the most of the time.
The LURE
MiniCrankBaits
As mentioned above, have the characteristic ultra light fishing to be small and very low birth weight, and similarly we have a wide range of them as in conventional fishing, and we can say that we have representatives from each of them, and in each category: area, depth (from sinking under its own weight and floating sink to recover them), witches or spinnerbaits, jigs, and in the same way the wide world of the "Plastics" from the popular and effective worm 3 inches to 4 3/4 inches (finesse worm) to the slugos, tubes, twister, grubs, crayfish, frogs, etc.., which were initially designed for fishing for other species; also crankbait (paletoncitos) as the brand Tiny N Norman, of 1/8 of an ounce, the Mini Fat Rap 1/8 of an ounce, the WeeRcrancker of 3/8 of an ounce, the Fat-A 1/5 ounce, and so on.
FISHING UTILITY LIGHT
As I mentioned earlier, far from being a technique that is opposed to the use of conventional equipment, light fishing is a complementary technique and can highlight the following qualities:
Rat Mini Lin
Represents a greater challenge and more excitement, because the degree of difficulty is higher and we are giving advantages to our playmate, forcing us to excel, to hone our skills, in short to be better fishermen and evolve in our sport, as they learn to be bloody cold at the moment of truth and make proper use of our team, and treat with care bass are still far from being "trophies" because it would be difficult for either party to the slightest mistake we bust line. But not always possible to use this equipment ultralight, because when we are in very tight reservoirs or thick hedges, frankly it would be folly to use it, so we need open areas, almost free of obstacles to work quietly to the bass , without the risk of vining impale.
This is useful when we fish in reservoirs with water very clear. We always knew the disadvantage that we found when we fish in these circumstances because it is easier for the bass can see the conventional line, it reduces the "strikes", and likewise the green devil scare by presenting a lure conventional size, but not when presented with a lure small and also do the presentation.
In the days when spawning occurred and the male guards the nest this size does not eat forage that is usually used only eat that which is very tiny, literally go above its nest, so is very useful light fishing in spawning and post spawning, when eggs hatched and born hundreds of thousands of small fry that become part of the diet of this predator, so that present a lure with similar features as the 2-inch grub means an unqualified success.
When a cold front has arrived, the metabolism of the bass drops considerably, so, just as its energy needs and feed these circumstances rejects gives preference to large and small, a similar situation occurs during the winter season with low temperatures.
At any time of year when bass goes through varying periods of inactivity. The natural history of bass fishing teaches us that there are occasions in which fishing is completely denied, it does these days and we test all our lures and even our secret weapon, and we have failed to cause any strike, is the best time to Ultralight use our equipment.
Want to have fun? The most abundant bass in a reservoir are the medium and small, so using small lures and consequently thin line is less visible in the water we will be more strikes than any other fisherman you are using conventional equipment because the size of the lures we use falls within the size range of food intake by the largest sector of the population of bass in a reservoir.
As time, far from being an opposite technique is a complementary technique that I recommend we practice to master, as we will save many days of fishing.
SOME TIPS FOR THE PRACTICE OF FISHING LIGHT.
The care of the line is of paramount importance, and we must pay particular attention first to make a proper knot, and test it before launching our bait into the water, remember it is the weakest point in union with our fish and this is magnified by the low strength we bring to it.
The sun and heat very easily weaken it, try to keep in a cool place away from sunlight, and change more frequently than usual, at least every two fishing trips.
These lines expire very easily, so that before loading your reel make him tying resistance testing and stretching a full scale to see how many pounds is broken, if the resistance is less than stipulated by the manufacturer better discard.
Hooks. Here I have two very important that you make, the first is to always use it trimmed HOOKS remember this better than ever used the term "BRING THE FISH BY A THREAD" and we will not once but many times that our dear friend the green devil we win the fight and will go with everything and bait, and if we are using the hooks can be trimmed easily rid of these. How to get hooks or trimmed?, Very easily, or they lie down holding her chin with the tip of forceps to fracture it or they lie down with a file, or acquired commercially, although not very common, in your fishing shop preferred the catalog you can order by "STORAGE HOOK", manufactured by the brand EAGLE CLAW. Second: Bring your hooks provided with a suitable edge like knife edge, because here we can not afford to settle violently reventaríamos the hook as the line, so it is imperative to have hooks that can easily pass jaw bass.
At the time of the fight is very important not to stretch the rod sharply, subtly Handle it, even without fully loosen the tension keep it quiet for a few moments to scare too much bass and minimize sudden movements of the animal, for not tiring to the point that comes to die, calmly, all in stride. Some bass even though they drive "gently" come very brave and ask us online in quantity, what is "VITAL" bring the drag perfectly graduated to a third of the line resistance, so avoid this break is reached, and despite this there will be times that the irregular shape that has been tangled in the reel line we will see how the bass manages to turn over our cane, in urgent circumstances seeks to guide the tip of the rod in the stretching direction where the bass, because this way you avoid breaking your line to provide the bass line win, especially if you are using a lightweight rod with specifications for 4 and 6 pounds, once the fish has stopped order online, you need to re-work it subtly, within your means avoiding run-off into rocks, herbs or sticks, where they instinctively seek protection and is very easy to line breakage.
If you are fishing from a boat seeks to bring yourself troleador motor control, if required to use it in your favor, it is always better than you you handle it, it is difficult to understand the other person 100% maneuvers that you need .
Once you have mastered your prey does not get on your boat weighing it against the line, the same weight of bass or minimum jerk this will end up bursting the thin line. I prefer it closer to the boat and take her hand, grabbing her bottom lip.
Similarly if we recover it with a hand net we run the same risk of bursting the line if we do not have the proper expertise, as each unsuccessful attempt to do, the bass gets scared and give two separate lugs that if we are not vigilant safely lose.
Remember, the bass management from the strike, the hookset, the fight and recovery, should be done with care and subtlety, here the error is minimal.
Finally my friend, patience, cold-blooded and good luck to get this capture.
IS QUESTION OF ETHICS
In the same way that the lawyer, doctor, teacher, and any professional, also "The Fisherman Athlete" must know how far reaching, and I mean that if we fight too much of a bass, we reach the limit of his strength and inexorably to "DIE", which is why my friends, that we being conscious and responsible fishermen will use hooks, trimmed to considering that the time was too much fighting and threatening the life of our friend, is much better know how to lose and make a supreme effort to get it out To those of ya! regardless of any implication that the line will burst and leave our victorious piece, it should be fully aware that this is not a "Fight of life or death" and if we could not capture in a reasonable time, plain and simple "ESA bass beat us," and we'll be arranging an appointment for a rematch.
When I met braided lines that give us the advantage of a thin gauge with superior strength, this gave me great peace of mind when driving my catch, so that with them I learned to fight successfully the bass, without despair and I managed to quietly enjoy the moment.
The life and my wife have treated me very well to afford to go fishing almost every weekend, which will finish never appreciated, this together with my patience and perseverance to spend many hours fishing on each output, but that even my very limited knowledge, I have been able to capture a very important amount of bass from those commonly called "Golonas", being the largest of which one of 4,850 Kg., that manages to catch and release at the dam of The Mimbres, this has given me the confidence to do strong tantrums when I was a good fight up, and get to the point of making the fight more exciting jump by lifting the rod tip even knowing that this gave better chance of coming loose if I loosen the tension of the line, all in an effort to increase the degree of difficulty, and gain greater satisfaction to get ahead in the fight, That's how I also reducing the strength of my line, 30 lbs. to 20 lbs (believe it or not eventually get to use 30 pounds), after 20 to 17, from 17 to 15, and now in conventional equipment does not use a line of more than 14 pounds, except in certain circumstances where find much coverage even use heavy braided line up to 30 lbs. resistance.
