Both grain bait and animal bait can be used for fishing carp before and after beginning of winter, because the temperature after beginning of winter will not be particularly low, so their requirements for bait are not very high at this time. In addition, after the sun comes out, the water temperature will gradually increase, which will not have much impact on their normal life.

However, in some areas, the temperature is relatively low after beginning of winter. At this time, it is necessary to choose some fishy feed, such as red worms, loaches, earthworms, etc. After breaking these baits, add some snail meat, fish bone meal, etc., and the fishy smell will spread faster. In addition to fishy feed, you can also use some cereal bait, such as wheat bran, corn, bean cake, etc., and add some brown sugar or honey to the cereal feed, so that the sweetness will be greater. If the effect is not good, you can also add some small medicines, such as rice sauce and musk wine.

The fishing point for carp in beginning of winter should be determined according to the water area and weather. If the weather is warm, you can choose the sunny and leeward position. With the increase of temperature, the vitality of carp will gradually increase and the success rate of fishing will be higher. If you are fishing in the reservoir, you can choose the dam head of the reservoir or the pier of the bridge. If it is a river or a stream, you can choose the intersection of water flows or the location with dense aquatic plants. Besides, stay away from roads or people.
