Summer provides us with a great opportunity to sit with a fishing rod on the shore, taking a break from work and other daily worries. Naturally, every fisherman always counts on a big catch, although you can find someone who just likes the process itself. But in order to achieve the desired result, it is not enough to have in your arsenal a set of the most expensive fishing rods and tackle. Every fisherman should know about some of the peculiarities of summer fishing, namely, the peculiarities of fishing in the last month of summer. Only in this case can one expect that the "hunt" will be successful.

There is still hot weather in August, which is not very suitable for fishing. Therefore, in order to be able to count on a good catch, it is advisable to go fishing on those days when it is cloudy outside and / or there is a little rain. It is also best to fish in the morning, when the water in the reservoir has not yet had time to warm up. It should be noted that some types of fish (chub, bream, pike perch) are best caught at night. But do not be upset, because not all fish reduce activity when the weather is characterized by an increased air temperature. For example, carp and carp, on the contrary, are highly active in the heat. It is somewhat more difficult to hunt a ruff or gudgeon in hot weather, in this case a lot will depend on the bait used.

Experienced fishermen recommend practicing the so-called combined fishing in August, during which it is necessary to use a variety of types of bait. For example, in August, crucian carp is well caught, which is best taken on a worm or maggot, and as for catching bream, this fish is best caught on steamed peas if the weather is hot during fishing. When fishing for tench, it is recommended to use small shells as bait, but rudd is best caught on a float tackle, using various small insects to bait.

Practice shows that roach is well caught in August, which can be successfully hunted not only in the morning dawn or during the evening sunset, but also at lunchtime if the weather is cloudy. At the same time, experienced fishermen recommend using the so-called fly fishing rod, and bread, a green leaf or a small grasshopper are perfect as bait. And remember that the largest roach is found in calm waters right at the edge of algae growth.

Slightly worse than roach, ide is caught in August, which also prefers to swim at the very edge of the algae. This fish is very fond of quiet backwaters and small bays, and also prefers the almost complete absence of current. It is recommended to fish the ide with a spinning rod, using a small spoon or fry as a bait.

Now that you are aware of some of the specifics of fishing in August, it will be much easier for you to find the optimal time to hike the river so that you have the best chance of getting a good catch. And do not forget that the effectiveness of summer fishing is largely dependent on weather conditions, so do not forget to check the weather forecast for the day on which you are going to schedule your next fishing trip.
