The balancer is a universal nozzle for catching perch at different times of the year. It shows high efficiency in both summer and winter fishing. The bait is an artificial product made in the form of a fry. It is equipped with two single hooks in the head and tail parts. In this article, we will analyze in detail how to catch perch on a balancer.

Before the formation of ice, the behavior of perch changes. Begins a noticeable movement along the reservoir to the depths. At the same time, flocks break up into smaller ones, and in some cases even completely. As soon as the ice has hardened, grouping is observed.
The freezing of water and increasing oxygen starvation make the fish migrate. It tries to move to areas with a small current. It is in such places that there is more oxygen. In reservoirs where it is not possible to find a current, the striped one rises by 1-1,5 m and does not fall lower until the very spring.
In the presence of relatively warm water, small flocks can enter sandbanks. Basically it is a small and medium-sized fish. Large individuals also remain in deep areas. The perch spawns in the spring in March-April. Caviar is deposited in shallow places near aquatic vegetation.
Summer is not the best time for striped hunting. He leads a more sedentary lifestyle almost until autumn. As soon as the cold starts, they gather in large flocks and stay in the middle water column.

Perch is a freshwater fish that lives in lakes, rivers, reservoirs. It tries to stay near slopes, rocky ridges, snags and other natural shelters. In reservoirs with stagnant water, the predator spends most of its time in deep pits, and in the presence of a current, it hides behind a cape. This is where you need to focus your search efforts.
You can also find fish near structures such as bridges, dams, under rafts, etc. In large reservoirs, a backwater with abundant vegetation will be a promising place for fishing.
Another signal for choosing a good fishing spot is the appearance or hunting of striped in the upper layers of the water. The predator always tries to stay close to its food base. It includes:
- Sumbru;
- Ryapushka;
- Verkhovka;
- Instantaneu;
- Okushok

The best times for daytime fishing are spring and autumn. In summer, fishing efficiency is observed in the early morning hours. As soon as the sun goes down, activity rises again.
With a sharp deterioration in the weather, the bite noticeably decreases. The fish becomes passive. This is often observed in the middle of autumn. Only skillful wiring technique can save here.
Atmospheric pressure has a great influence on the behavior of the striped. A smooth change does not greatly affect the bite, but sharp jumps can lead to its complete absence. Flocks disintegrate and passivity appears. Increased pressure forces the fish to rise to the surface or go into shallow water.
Rating of balancers
According to experienced anglers, when choosing a bait, special attention should be paid to color. If we consider winter fishing, then golden and silver colors show themselves best. But this is not the only factor. In fact, there are enough nuances. To simplify the selection process, you should refer to the rating of catchable balancers. TOP is based on the experience and practice of fishermen.
- Dixxon or in the common people “Black Death”. Equipped with two single hooks and a tee in the belly area. Recommended length 55-65 mm and weight 9-15 gr.
- Rapala Jigging. It has long been popular with fishermen. It differs not only in excellent catchability, but also in good workmanship.
- Lucky John Pleant. Also quite “old”, but effective nozzle. One of the best options for perch fishing.
- Nilsmaster. It has excellent animation quality. The balancer can be used as a regular oscillator by changing the place of attachment of the fishing line.
- Kuusamo Tasapaino. Made in a classic style. Has a wide range of colors.
Cum de a alege
When choosing, pay attention to the following characteristics:
- Marimea;
- Form;
- Greutatea;
- Culoare.
The length of the bait plays a decisive role. The perch is a small predator and the balancer must match the intended prey. Otherwise, you simply won’t get the expected result. The average recommended length should be 20-50 mm.
Two forms of balancer are distinguished for perch: long, sloping and voluminous. It is believed that it is voluminous that show themselves better. Therefore, they should be emphasized. But the first option should also be in your arsenal. Running balancers have proven themselves well when fishing in the current.
As for weight, light and medium are mainly used. In shallow water, the former work well, and the latter in deeper waters. Recommended weight 4-10 gr. A float rod or spinning rod can act as a tackle.

In addition to balancers, perch can be caught on spinners, silicone nozzles, wobblers, as well as on natural ones (worms, bloodworms, maggots and live bait).
Silicone is well suited for fishing in the bottom levels. They are attractive because due to the soft material they imitate a live fish as closely as possible.
Wobblers are also often used on the striped. Japanese manufacturers are considered the best, but you have to pay a tidy sum for such a bait. This is the main disadvantage.
Natural baits are more used in the warm season. They are used for conventional float fishing, or in a plumb line.

Having picked up the right bait, you should familiarize yourself with the technique of fishing on a balancer. An important point in this matter is maintaining pauses. In 90% of cases, the predator attacks at this very moment.
One of the most popular techniques will be the “eight”. Drawing the number 8 at the very bottom. But it’s not worth doing with one wire. If it doesn’t work, then try another one.
We perform a small swing of the rod and literally throw the nozzle to the bottom from a height of half a meter. We raise it by 50-60 cm and take a short pause. We’re dropping to the bottom again. It would be nice if such actions raise dregs. In this case, the probability that perch will be caught is higher.
