Any tackle requires proper care and attention. However, not every angler knows how to do this. By taking trophy fishing tours in the Krasnoyarsk Krai, guests will learn many life hacks on how to carefully preserve their fishing gear.
After all, it's not just wobblers, jigs, spinners, and sinkers that require special care. Everything related to fishing should have its own care: reels, spinning rods, rods, etc.
Where to start when caring for your gear?
Let's start by looking at how to care for spinning tackle in order.
fishing line
After every fishing trip, pay attention to your fishing line. If it starts to deteriorate right on the rod, there's a problem. This could be caused not only by poor-quality line but also by the rod's accessories.
For example, damaged rings. After fishing, they should be treated with alcohol or fine-grit sandpaper. This will remove any rough spots or other imperfections that may have appeared after fishing. If these can't be removed, it's best to replace the rings immediately.
fishing rod
If scratches or damage appear on your spinning rod or fishing pole, they should be concealed. Women's nail polish works well for this. After applying the polish and letting it dry, wipe the rod with a cloth. Linen is used for polishing.
On telescopic rods, silicone and wax treatment is also required on the butt joints. This helps prevent jamming during fishing.
Plug-in Spinning rods should be free of any contaminants. Sand, dirt, and dust should be removed with rubbing alcohol. Afterward, lubricate with waterproof oil.
Coil
This type of gear requires a personalized approach. This involves applying lubricant to all moving parts of the reel. The line rollers require special attention. After the fishing season, the reel should be cleaned of lubricant and re-lubricated.
This applies to all components: gears, bearings, etc. It's best to send expensive reels for repair so experienced technicians can perform all necessary procedures. You should also constantly monitor the area where the reel attaches to the rod. It should always be perfectly smooth and clean.
Lures
To keep your lures in tip-top shape, they should be cleaned of dirt and sand after fishing. Furthermore, any rust or corrosion on spinners, wobblers, and jig heads should be promptly removed. Anglers often use a regular eraser for this purpose. In extreme cases, lures may need to be replaced with new ones.
After fishing, you need to dry all your bait and then store it in specially designed, sealable boxes. An angler often has a lot of these in his arsenal.
Fishbaits and other silicone lures require special attention. To preserve their appearance, it's best to refrigerate them after fishing. However, plastic-wrapped silicone lures will last significantly longer.
Treble hooks, double hooks, and other hooks also require constant care and attention. They should be treated in the same way as lures. This will ensure they don't rust over the winter and continue to serve their owner well when landing trophy fish.
