header_banner

After mentioning a few target fish in our article on fishing in Norway, today we are going to talk about one of the most popular marine fish: cod. The edible fish, also known as cod outside the Baltic Sea, is also found almost everywhere in the North Atlantic and the North Sea.

Probably the easiest way to fish for cod is from a fishing trawler or fishing boat. From almost every major coastal town you can either take a guided tour or rent a small boat and set sail yourself. A group tour with a skipper is recommended, especially for newcomers, as you don't have to rely on your luck and skill with the echo sounder when looking for the cod.

There are many catchy baits for cod, because cod do not torch long before they attack a possible prey fish.

If you fish from the boat and the cod are close to the bottom, you usually get a Pilker used. The bait is repeatedly left on the bottom and attracted until a fish falls on the tumbling, sinking bait. The pirk comes in many different shapes, weights and colors. In the Baltic Sea, a weight of 50 to 150 grams is sufficient, with stronger currents and drifts you tend to use the heavy pirk. In terms of color, combinations of red and black as well as silver and blue are currently popular, but actually all conceivable colors can be used, there is a suitable bait for every situation.

This is a variation on fishing with pirk Speed ​​jigging. A narrow, heavy pirk is first lowered to the bottom and then caught up again with quick sprints and short stops. This technique has proven itself when the cod are far above the ground under swarms of fodder fish, because they simply cannot resist the attraction of the pirk that swims by quickly. But not only cod will bite here, Koehler and Pollack also accept the brisk speed pilker. However, caution is advised with rugged ground, here a pirk has often got stuck and was torn off.

You can also fish in the Baltic Sea Rubber fish on the jig hook popular, both from a boat and in surf fishing, because hunger drives the cod near the coast, especially after the spawning season. Here you can fish with light equipment, which ensures exciting drills. Even with one Wobbler cod can be outwitted. With deep diving models you can even troll from a boat and fish even deeper at 10 meters or with a downrigger.

No matter what kind of Cod fishing You decide, Angelplatz.de has the right equipment.

 

Regarding cod, it should also be said that the stocks in the seas have been contained by heavy fishing and have therefore been classified as an endangered species by the IUCN. In principle, even fish that has been caught is less of a problem than industrially caught fish, but you should keep to the minimum dimensions when fishing for cod. Because if too many fish are removed before they can spawn a single time, the cod populations will not recover.
