If the catch is small, the networks are started again.
Kuyuur is a tackle that resemblesa large net. This way of fishing is suitable for fishing on small fish. First you need to correctly find a place where the fish winters. After that a hole is drilled into which the fishing gear is lowered and rotates there. The resulting water vortex captures the fish and carries it to the net. After kuyuur filled, it is removed, take out the catch and lowered again in the hole.
Fishing with a fishing rod is the most traditionalway of winter fishing. You can also use reduced spinning with a reel. It is important to choose the right fishing rod and additional accessories (hooks, floats). In the selected location the fisherman drills a hole into which he places the baited bait. Do not allow icing gear.
