Is it good to go fishing in Guyu?

There are several reasons why fishing is suitable around Grain Rain:

1. Rising air and water temperatures. It is the season of spring when flowers are blooming. Rising air temperatures promote rising water temperatures, and fish flock to the shallows near the shore to bask in the sun and look for food.

2. More food in the water. Warm weather and warm water promote the reproduction of a large number of organic microorganisms in the water, which in turn promote the growth of new leaves and buds on water plants, which are all food that fish like to eat. A large number of plankton are hidden in the water plants, which become the natural "granary" of fish. The fish that have been dormant for a winter are hungry and will swim around looking for food.

3. Fishes scramble for food. Fishes are in the breeding season at this time, and they need to reserve nutrients for the sake of raising their offspring. They actively look for food. In the warmer inland areas, crucian carp have finished spawning, and their stomachs are empty. They need to take in a lot of food to replenish their body consumption. It is very easy to catch fish at this time, which will bring you many surprises.

What bait to use for fishing in Guyu

Fishing for carp before and after Grain Rain requires making nests, just like fishing for carp in summer and autumn. The quality of the nest bait, the size of the nest, the method of making nests, etc., directly affect the amount of fish caught. So what kind of nest bait and fishing bait should be used, and what method should be used to make nests? Let's talk about nest bait and fishing bait first. Fishing for carp before and after Grain Rain mostly uses a combination of commercial bait and meat bait red worms, which has a better effect. This combination method of taking advantage of the strengths and making up for the weaknesses has both the palatability and fish attracting properties of commercial baits, and a large amount of protein necessary for the body of spring carp. It would be strange if carp didn't eat it!

1. Preparation of nest bait and fishing bait. First, mix the red worms and the commercial bait evenly, and divide them into two parts, one for bait and the other for fishing bait. Add silk powder to the bait according to the amount of silk powder in the commercial bait (generally, the amount should not exceed 20%), and then crush some of the red worms by hand and mix them in the warm water for bait adjustment. Gently stir the bait with water containing red worm blood. The action should be as gentle as possible, otherwise the red worms will die or not be fresh enough, and the effect will not be good. Leave the mixed bait for about 15 minutes and the bait is ready. This bait has the fishy smell of red worm blood, plus the rapid dissolution of commercial bait, and a large number of red worms wriggling on the bait ball, so the effect of attracting fish is quite good! The same method is used for the other part of the fishing bait, but silk powder is added to the bait to ensure the hook-attachment of red worms and commercial bait, which is conducive to carp finding fresh bait balls.

2. The method of making nests. Carp are highly alert in the season of Grain Rain, so it is not possible to use the method of throwing bait by hand as in summer and autumn. Therefore, it is best to use the method of pulling the rod to make nests for carp fishing before and after Grain Rain. However, it is more important to pay attention to the three-dimensional method of making nests lightly, slowly, accurately and skillfully.

Characteristics of the Grain Rain solar term

Grain Rain is the last solar term in spring, followed by Beginning of Summer. During the Grain Rain season, rice seedlings and crops in the south of the Yangtze River are planted and need rain the most. It happens that most parts of southern China have abundant rainfall at this time, with annual rainfall of about 30 to 50 mm in late April. The first heavy rain of the year usually occurs during this period, which is beneficial to rice planting and the growth of corn and cotton seedlings.

The rainfall in South China before and after Grain Rain often "sneaks into the night with the wind, moistening things silently", because "Night Rain in Bashan" occurs most often in April and May. "It often rains at night in Shu, but the river is clear in the morning", this kind of weather with rain at night and clear in the day is quite suitable for the growth of spring crops and the harvest of spring crops. Therefore, the sentence "Rain is frequent, frost stops, the air is clear and mild, willows are green, tea is fragrant, and swallows shuttle. Cuckoos cry in the late spring, and there are many things to do when planting and planting." is very appropriate.

“It is a good time to plant cotton before Grain Rain”, and another saying goes: “If you don’t plant flowers during Grain Rain, your heart will feel like a crab crawling”. Since ancient times, cotton farmers have used Grain Rain as an indicator for cotton sowing, compiled it into proverbs and passed it down from generation to generation.
