Moreover, by visiting routes across multiple bodies of water, anglers experience a variety of positive emotions. It all begins with a helicopter drop-off at the route's starting point. Then, the hunt begins for trophy char, taimen, grayling, and many other noble predators of the salmon family.
What is Bolognese?
This is the name for fishing in currents using a moving troll. Today, this method can be used with spinning rods and Bolognese rods equipped with the latest reels. Previously, these were replaced by conventional bamboo rods lacking technological advancements.
The Bolognese allows for fishing not only from the shore. This type of fishing can also be done from boats and rafts. This type of fishing is most often used at great depths of up to 5 meters. To catch trophies, the rod must be equipped with powerful bite alarms. A key feature of the Bolognese is that the line must float and remain taut.
Equipment option:
1. It is recommended to use telescopic rods equipped with rings and a spinning reel.
2. Usually the number of rings is equal to the meters of fishing gear.
3. Coil similar to the one installed at matches.
4. As for the fishing line, there are no special recommendations here, absolutely all are suitable.
5. A float for a bolognese is an antenna with good buoyancy and a thickness of about 2 mm.
How to fish with a Bolognese?
This type of fishing is called "floating" because after casting, the angler makes no movements to control the tackle. The strong current itself creates the floating motion.
To catch larger trophies, it's best to position your bait closer to the bottom. Avoid snags and dense vegetation. New technologies, such as fish finders and fishing cameras, can often help visualize the bottom.
· Bolognese is carried out in windless weather, because the wind can either speed up the movement of the tackle or, on the contrary, stop it.
· The cast should be made as if diagonally across the current.
To increase the number of fish caught, bait is first cast. Anglers roll it into balls and then toss it in the spot where the line will go after casting.
For Bolognese fishing, anglers use long rods (4-6 meters). They are excellent for casting.
Conclusion
We explained what a Bolognese is, how to fish with it, and the equipment needed for this ancient method. This type of fishing can sometimes yield numerous trophy species, both peaceful and predatory. Fishing routes often take place on fast-flowing Siberian rivers, so this fishing method can be useful during rafting.
