How to Fish for Hemigrammocypris (Chinese False Gudgeon)? A Detailed Guide to Practical Fishing Techniques

The white stripe fish is a very small and easy-to-catch fish; generally, when fishing you will catch quite a few white stripe fish. But some beginners still do not know how to fish, so let us take a look below athow to fish for white stripe fish.

1. Fishing rod: To fish for white stripe fish, choose a relatively stiff fishing rod; it does not need to be too long because white stripe fish mainly move and feed near the shore. When fishing for white stripe fish, you must maintain the frequency, otherwise there is no point in fishing for them. So the rod must be light and stiff.

2. Fishing line: White stripe fish are generally relatively small in size; if you encounter a big one, then you are very lucky. For the main line, choose 0.6-0.8, and a leader line of 0.2-0.4 is enough. Note that the leader line should not be too long; around 15 cm is enough.

3. Float and fish hook: Choose a float that turns over quickly and is sensitive, and do not make it too large. For the fish hook, just use a sleeve hook; a size 3 sleeve hook or so is very good. Try to choose one without barbs, mainly to increase the frequency.

4. Bait: White stripe fish really like fishy bait. One thing to note is that if you are specifically fishing for white stripe fish, the bait should be mixed a bit softer, to make it easier for white stripe fish to take the bait. As for float movement, white stripe fish generally take the bait very aggressively, and the float movement is extremely large, so it is very easy to observe.

5. Time: Generally, when the water is relatively muddy after rain, or in the hot summer, especially in the evening, the time for fishing white stripe fish is best and the results are also very good. After the weather turns cool in late autumn, white stripe fish like to spend the winter in relatively deep water, and generally they are rarely caught.

6. Fishing techniques: White stripe fish are upper-layer fish, so there is no need to fish very deep; generally fishing at a depth of one float is enough. When white stripe fish enter the nest and reach a certain density, you can completely stop watching the float, and after each time the bait enters the water, you can lift the rod after 3-5 seconds.

White stripe fish generally appear in schools, and the speed of catching them is very fast. If the density is high, then generally in a few hours you can catch enough for an evening's dish to go with drinks.
