Bottling, also known as plug fishing, is one of the most common techniques used to catch different types of fish, including roach. However, to avoid being left empty-handed, it is important to choose the right float, to make a good line setting... In short, you must master this fishing method.
Specificities of plug fishing
The technique of plug fishing consists in baiting the fish with a bait that is held with a plug. It floats on the surface of the water. This cap acts as a key indicator. When the fish bites the bait, it sinks into the water.
As for the materials, this method requires a small float. As for the rod, it may or may not be equipped with a reel. It should be noted that float fishing can be practiced in both winter and summer.
The characteristics of the float for fishing roach
To fish for roach, the choice of float varies according to the distance of the fishing as well as the animation of the water. The tapered shape is more stable. It is therefore perfect when the water is calm. The droplet float, on the other hand, is sensitive and stable. It can be used on all distances and on slow-moving water surfaces. The other type is the ball-shaped cap. It adapts perfectly to the waters agitated by the current and the wind. The last model is the one with the flat shape. It is very effective in immobilizing the bait on the bottom of the water. Note that to fish for roach, a low weight float of between 0.2 and 1.5 grams should be used.
The characteristics of the line to catch roach
To catch this fish, it is necessary to use a nylon whose size varies between 8/100 and 12/100. The choice depends on the lift of the float. As for lead, the ideal is to use 4 identical lead seals. 80% of the float lift is provided by the latter. Then you need a small lead to improve the balance of the line and another as a touch. Below the solid lead, it is necessary to put 2 square seals. They are used as valves. As far as the leader is concerned, the choice of hooks is also important. It is best to choose models between 18 and 20. This varies according to the size of the fish and the type of bait. This hook must then be mounted on a nylon from 6/100 to 10/100.
