Bottom Systems Review: for Bream, Bream and Carp Fishing

What is a Bottom System?

Bottom systems are a very popular choice in recreational fishing, especially among beginners. They are very useful when the angler's goal is to catch crucian carp, bream and carp. When used with a feeder, the weight of the feeder helps to keep the bait in the right place, where a school of fish gathers and the delicious smell of the bait leads them.

The history of bottom systems is not very long. In the past, fishermen used simple weights, but over time different feeders have been developed and many different ways of catching with different systems have emerged. The main characteristics of bottom systems include their ability to keep the bait in the presence of fish. And their popularity is attributed to the convenience of using pre-fabricated kits, which saves the angler time or helps the beginner to catch more than trying to tie the right system himself. This allows fishermen to spend more time on the fishing itself rather than on preparing the gear. It is for this reason that bottom rigs have become a typical choice for both novice fishermen and experienced professionals.

The most suitable systems for bream fishing

Bream fishing is very popular in Lithuania because bream are very abundant and they are a very large fish that is extremely tasty when smoked in a smoker. One of the most commonly used and effective systems for catching bream is the 'Inline' system. This rig is known for its sensitivity and its simple design, allowing the most careful catching of fish. The Inline system is characterised by the fact that the swivel slides on the main line, which allows the fish to easily take the bait without too much resistance.

The main advantages of the Inline system are its versatility and efficiency. It is ideal for different fishing conditions, both in still water and in very fast flowing water.

In addition, the Inline system allows for better control of bait presentation and monitoring of bream reactions by quickly changing the length and thickness of the leaders and the hooks themselves.

The crucian carp killer: The most effective system for crucian carp fishing

The 'Bream Killer' is the most efficient fishing system designed to optimally attract and catch one of the most popular fish - bream. Uniquely equipped with three shakers, this system offers anglers an incredible level of productivity.

The design of the 'Bream Killer' is sophisticated and well thought out. The main components of this system include a main line on which three lightweight swivels are mounted with individual short leashes with hooks on each, and a weight hanging at the end to cast the system far and accurately. The advantage of this system is that the light feeders do not sink into the mud, due to their lightness, and crucians are usually caught where the bottom is muddy. The crucian carp killer is not only used by novice fishermen, but is also used by sport fishermen in their spare time, as such systems are not allowed in competitions.

The Method hair system for fishing: not only for carp or crucian carp, but also for bream

Method fishing techniques are designed to catch carp, and are the most effective way to catch these fish, but fishermen have quickly discovered that they are also very effective for crucian carp and bream. This technique does not require much bait or live bait, and is therefore known as clean fishing and is much cheaper than simple fiddling, which uses lots of bait and live bait.

When setting up a hair rig, the most important components are the method feeder, the hook and the bait. The purpose of the feeder is different from that of a feeder. In fiddling, it is important that the bait falls out of the feeder and the bait is spot baited, whereas in method fishing the bait has to stay in the feeder and slowly entice the fish, which simply sucks the loose bait out of the feeder and at the same time retrieves the bait and hook.
