Spider fishing is not clearly perceived by fishermen and, given some parameters of the device, is considered a purely poaching method of catching fish, which has nothing in common with sport fishing. But in some cases, fishing tackle is permitted for use under legitimate conditions and is an excellent help for anglers hunting for predatory fish and constantly in need of live bait. Such a tool can be purchased without any problems in a network of fishing stores and, equipped with a lightweight pole and a ten-meter piece of strong, small-diameter rope, can be used to ensure fishing with fresh live bait.
The article presented to the reader will help to understand the types of spiders for fishing, understand its operating principle and how to make it yourself. The fisherman will be given recommendations for choosing promising fishing spots with this tool, and the nuances of the geometric characteristics and devices permitted for its legal use will be discussed.
What is a spider fishing tackle?
A fishing spider, or also a product called a lift in the fishing community, is a fishing tool consisting of a square piece of mesh stretched between rigid metal rods of a frame, the upper part of which is connected to a specially designed device for this purpose, called a cross. Depending on the purpose of the spiders, they can have mesh fabrics of different sizes, which in turn can have different cell sizes. Spider fishing is done blind.
The gear is installed on the bottom at a point in the reservoir chosen by the fisherman and raised by means of a pole after a certain time interval, which is also arbitrary and depends only on the decision of the fisherman. The lift is convenient to use from bridges, or other building structures and objects of natural origin overhanging the water and convenient for the angler’s location. In this case, the net is lifted without a pole, using only a rope. When the device is lifted from the water, the fish swimming above the mesh sheet falls into a slug of gear formed from the water pressure and is taken to the shore. With this method of fishing, the caught fish has absolutely no damage, and can remain viable for a long time, kept in water under optimal temperature conditions.
Spider for fishing: how to make it yourself, drawings and fines
The fishing spider is a very simple device for catching fish; perhaps the only simpler thing is its use. Previously, it consisted of metal rods, now metal-plastic, plastic rods, etc. are used. These rods are fixed in the crosspiece, and a net is pulled between their ends.
Types of spiders
Spiders are divided into several types depending on the design features and type of application:
- Classic tetrahedral.
- A more advanced “brother” is the hexagonal one.
- Shell spiders, tetrahedral and hexagonal.
Regular, for fishing in summer
For fishing in summer, a regular tetrahedral lifting spider is most often used. The reason is its ease of use. In addition, such a design is so simple that if you have a mesh and 4 rods (4 rods are easier to find than 6), assembling the structure is not difficult. Lure is placed in the net, the fish are collected for feeding, the fisherman pulls and it folds and pulls out the catch.
For winter fishing
Winter fishing is not much different from summer fishing. The only feature is the selection of a drill for wider holes so that the spider can easily enter and exit the hole. The bait is placed in the center of the spider, and it sinks to the bottom, there it “opens up”, the fish feeds, the fisherman lifts the spider, it folds, and the fisherman takes it out of the hole with the fish.
This method is used to catch live bait to equip the girders. It is worth understanding that the ice spider has some differences from products for open water fishing.
Large spiders
Naturally, the larger the spider, the higher the potential catch. Therefore, many fishermen have a weakness for large products, but it should be noted that the larger the size, the physically more difficult it is to lift the device out of the water. The largest spiders use fishing boats, but they have a special lifting mechanism.
Some countries allow fishing for small spiders, but large ones are considered a poaching device. Therefore, before using this fishing tackle, study the fishing legislation of your country. When being carried away by sizes, do not violate laws and common sense.
A large product is usually fished from a boat, so it will be more convenient for the fisherman.
Best places to catch spiders
The best places are thickets of reeds (naturally, next to thickets of reeds - you can’t throw a spider into the thickets and “drown”) and places near trees growing in a pond.
Technique of use
You need to be able to use this wonderful tackle in every sense. The technique of its use is divided into several types, although in essence they are all quite similar.
- From the shore. In this case, the fisherman secures the spider on a strong base, which is often used as a shaft or the trunk of a small tree. A spider is tied to it and thrown into the water. In some ways, this device will be similar to a fishing rod, but instead of a fishing line, a rope is used, and instead of a fishing rod, a thick shaft is used.
- From a bridge or pier. A fisherman can use a "lever" device where the railing of a bridge or pier acts as a fulcrum. In this case, you can use a larger spider. Otherwise, this technique is extremely similar to the spider fishing technique from the shore.
- In winter. As mentioned above, it is impossible to use a large spider in winter. The reason is the size of the hole. A spider for winter fishing should be small in size, no larger than the hole that your drill can make. Otherwise, it will be impossible to get the catch out of the water.
Making your own spider
Materials and tools
- Metal pipes, preferably light metal. Aluminum is ideal.
- Metal tube for the cross.
- A fishing net that is stretched over a structure.
- Rope (pulling a lift on a fishing line is extremely problematic).
- Durable handle (in villages a shaft was used as standard).
- Hacksaw and hammer.
- The most problematic and expensive tool for assembly is a welding machine.
- Schemes and drawings.
Manufacturing and assembly technology
Anyone can make a homemade spider, the main thing is desire and a little ingenuity.
- First, the crosspiece is made. You will need a hammer to flatten the pipes. Next, using a welding machine, we fasten the pipes perpendicularly by welding. Welding will also be required to weld a ring to the crosspiece, to which a rope will be tied to lift the spider and immerse it in water.
- The second stage - using a hacksaw, we make notches on the aluminum arches to tightly fasten the fishing net. Of course, the arches themselves must fit very tightly to the structure.
- The third stage is attaching the mesh. It needs to be secured in such a way that it sag slightly, otherwise if the net is simply stretched, the fish will easily leave your tackle. But the net should hang down a little, since the larger the net, the harder it is to get the spider out of the pond, especially with a catch.
- When the metal rods have entered the crosspiece and the structure has been assembled, you need to fasten a rope to the crosspiece ring, and securely attach its second end to the shaft so as not to miss the spider. For these purposes, a path is sharpened with a knife at the point of attachment to the shaft. Thus, the rope is held not only by the knot, but also, as it were, “bites” into the tree.
Fine for catching a spider
Fishing with a spider is not prohibited in the Russian Federation if the size of the gear does not exceed 1x1 m. A larger spider is considered a poaching device, and a fine of 2,000 rubles may be imposed for its use. You can also get a fine when catching certain types of fish during spawning, if fishing for them is prohibited in your region during this period.
Of course, it is prohibited to fish for a large spider, which cannot be lifted by a person on his own, and vehicles and mechanisms are used to lift it. Such a violation is set out in Article 256 par.
“B”: “Illegal extraction (catch) of aquatic biological resources using a self-propelled floating vehicle or explosives and chemicals, electric current or other methods of mass extermination of the specified aquatic animals and plants.”
Also, under this article, you can be subject to criminal liability when catching fish even with a 1x1 m spider at the time of spawning (point “B”): “in spawning areas or on migration routes to them.”
The punishment for such acts is truly severe. The mildest is a fine of 100 to 300 thousand rubles or correctional labor for 2 years, the alternative is a prison term of 6 months.
Therefore, you need to use this device for fishing with an eye on the laws in order to get pleasure from fishing, and not fines and other unpleasant consequences.

Types of spiders
The spider tackle, having a general principle of its operation, differs only in the size, shape and design of the cross. Otherwise, the composition of the tackle remains unchanged, consisting of a mesh fabric, a rod frame and a cross-lock. In appearance, a fishing lifting net can be a classic tetrahedral shape, a modernized hexagonal variation and separated into a separate direction and type of tackle - spider-shell. The shells are small in size and can be round in shape, in the form of four or six sides. Fishing for spiders can be carried out at different times of the year, and for these purposes, fishermen have developed structures that can sink under the ice. In continuation of the article, we will dwell in more detail on the most popular models of the device.
Important! But I would definitely like to note that the legal fishing tool is a spider with a web size of 100x100 cm and a cell size of 1x1 cm, called by fishermen a little spider.
Common for summer fishing
A fishing spider in a classic design is a little spider . It is with its help that fishermen catch the lion's share of live bait in the summer. The design of the tackle is quite simple and consists of a square mesh, a blind cross and four rods. On the crosspiece in its upper part there is a fastening ring for winding the lifting rope.
A wooden or aluminum pole for this small spider for catching live bait, as a rule, does not exceed four meters, and a seven-meter piece of rope or cord 6–8 mm thick is sufficient for most conditions for conducting the preparatory part of the main live bait fishing. Some models of the dwarf are equipped with side wing-aprons that rise 5–10 cm up along the perimeter of the mesh fabric. Their purpose is to serve to keep small fish in the mesh fabric, from rolling outside its boundaries at the moment when the tackle rises from the water.

For winter fishing
The design of the fishing gear for the peculiarities of winter fishing during the freeze-up period should allow the rods to fold freely when lowering and pulling the spider from the drilled hole. If the mesh fabric and rods of the winter version of the tackle are identical in appearance to the summer version, then the cross has a number of differences, which, first of all, lie in the spring mechanism that works to transform the product.
The stiffness of the spring is adjusted in such a way that it makes it possible to fold the rods and allow the angler to push the tackle through the hole, where, once in the water, it will open into working condition. When making a lift, resting the cross against the ice, the springs of the mechanism will work in the opposite direction and make it possible to lift into the hole a net folded into a bag with fish caught in it. To make it easier to feed the frame of this tackle, fishermen use ice drills of the largest diameters.
Large spiders
Fishing with spiders in excess of the size standards specified in the previous sections of the article in the vast majority of regions of our country is poaching. But large lifts are used in industrial fishing by fishing teams and even vessels specialized for such a device. Of course, due to their large mass, such spiders cannot be lifted by hand and electric winches with metal cables are used for this. For fishing, the poacher uses an elongated and durable pole, but made of lightweight materials, and a reliable synthetic rope.
Important! It is tempting to catch unsuspecting migrating or roosting fish in large quantities in large quantities, but do not forget that for violations of the law there are now quite significant fines, for which it is better to acquire legal and high-quality fishing equipment for legal sport and amateur fishing.
How to make it yourself: instructions
Despite the fact that any type of equipment can be purchased in a store at a fairly low price, many people prefer to make a lift with their own hands. Often fishermen, hoping for a richer catch, decide to make a trap whose size exceeds the legal requirements. It is worth remembering that such fishing is carried out at your own peril and risk and may result in a fine.
Step-by-step instructions for making a lift with your own hands:
Self-expanding spider lift
You will need tools and components:
- aluminum tubes for arcs;
- metal tubes for the cross;
- nylon mesh;
- handle pole and rope;
- hammer;
- hacksaw;
- welding machine.
Assembly instructions:
- They start by assembling the cross. The tubes must be flattened with a hammer. The goal is to make them flat, without holes. Using welding, the flattened tubes are connected at right angles. A ring is welded in the center, to which a rope can later be attached.
- Make shallow notches at the ends of the aluminum tubes. This will help secure the mesh more securely. Use a hacksaw.
- Attach the mesh to the tubes.
- A rope is attached to the ring on the crosspiece. The other end is secured to a stick.
The mesh must be attached to the tubes in such a way that there is a slight sag visible to the eye. A base that is too tight will give the fish the opportunity to jump out of the trap as it is being lifted.
Umbrella
Another name for equipment, which is mainly used in winter, is “grabber”. The process of making it yourself will require patience, some effort and knowledge from the fisherman.
Tools and elements:
- frame - knitting needles (4 pieces);
- bottom - mesh made of nylon;
- 4 springs;
- main weight made of lead;
- fishing line and 4 rods;
- float;
- nylon cord;
- copper wire;
- insulating tape.
Algorithm:
- The mass of the central sinker is calculated based on the speed of the current, the depth of fishing and the size of the gear itself. Springs must be inserted into the sinker. They are responsible for the trouble-free operation of the lift, allowing it to fold and open automatically like an umbrella.
- Rods are inserted into the springs. The coils are protected from snagging on the net using PVC tape.
- The fishing line is attached to a sinker and a float that extends the vertical part of the umbrella.
- The fishing line is attached to one of the rods, at the bottom.
- The rod is pulled to the spoke, pulling through the cells. At the end of the knitting needle there is a ring of wire through which the fishing line is threaded.
- Then the line is pulled through the wing cell and the float ring.
- The 4 ends of the fishing line must be secured in the ring above the float. Secure with lace.
- The central line is secured with a float, but the fastening is not reinforced with a cord.

Big size
Despite the legal ban, many fishermen make larger lifts. Huge spiders use fishing boats, but they are equipped with technical equipment for lifting - powerful winches.
When making such enlarged gear, a mesh with an increased cell size and stronger arcs for the frame are chosen. The materials chosen must be able to withstand the weight of the catch. It is worth remembering that large equipment is prohibited by law. Employees of regulatory authorities will confiscate accessories and take administrative measures against violators.
How to make a fishing spider with your own hands
A fishing spider is a fairly elementary piece of equipment in its structure and composition of elements, and it can be made at home, with your own hands, without much difficulty. The basis of the equipment is the net; all other parts of the equipment can be adapted from available means, which makes it possible to assemble a spider even in the field. For the base of the lift, a network woven from synthetic threads, which are least susceptible to rotting, is suitable. You can use vine or willow twigs as arches, and equip the crosspiece with a strong joint knitting of four frame elements. Self-production of even such a primitive spider for fishing can allow you to catch a certain amount of fish in an extreme situation. But then we will discuss the possibility of manufacturing gear at home using the industrial method, giving not only the algorithm for assembling the gear itself, but also determining the list of materials and tools necessary for the production of the product.
Required materials and tools
Before starting the manufacture of the lift, you need to decide on the dimensions of the final product in order to correctly select the mesh fabric required in terms of area, and also purchase a sufficient amount of metal rod for the arcs of the device. As we have already mentioned, it is best to purchase a mesh made of nylon fishing line for lifts, which is a fairly durable synthetic material that does not require special care after using it in a damp environment. To stretch and attach the net to the arcs, you will need to purchase a polymer thread with a diameter of 2–3 mm, slightly larger than the length of the perimeter of the net. To make arcs, you need a rigid metal rod or reinforcement not exceeding 3 mm in diameter.
The fisherman will also need tubes for making a cross, the diameter of which should be comparable to the diameter of the metal rod that fits tightly into the hole of the pipe blank. Under the pole, wooden stakes or duralumin pipes up to six meters long and not exceeding 40 mm in thickness are used. To ensure the spider rises from the water, you will need about 10 meters of nylon cord no thicker than 8 mm.
Of the tools, the most complex equipment will be the welding machine, which will be needed to assemble the cross. In addition to welding equipment, you should have a small cutting machine or a hacksaw for metal, as well as pliers and a hammer for arranging hooks on metal rods for fastening the net. A sharp knife would be useful for working with nylon twine and tension threads.
Instructions for making a spider for fishing
Having decided on the size of the future lift, cut out the mesh fabric of the required perimeter and stretch a tension thread along its edges, which is tightly attached to the corners of the mesh, leaving loops. The next step is to prepare the crosspiece by welding its frame from tubes pre-cut to size. In the upper part of the cross, exactly in the center of the product, a fastening ring for winding the rope is mounted. Hooks are placed on four cut rods and loops made from thread drawn into the fabric are attached to them.
Next, the rods are tried on the crosspiece in such a way that when installing the rod into the hole of the tube on the canvas, a small sack is obtained, otherwise there is a sag of the mesh visible to the eye. The rods are cut to the required size and inserted into the crosspiece, completing the main assembly of the lift with your own hands with this operation. Now all that remains is to tie the fastening cord to the loop of the cross, connecting it to a pole selected for the fishing conditions, and you can go fishing.
Spider for winter fishing - how to make it yourself?
First you need to decide on the size of the “spider”. Depending on the fish that the angler is going to catch, this tackle can be with large cells for large fish and small cells for small fish. Of course, the size of the “spider” needs to be increased if you plan to catch a large catch of fish.
It is equally important to take into account your physical capabilities, because the larger the catch, the more difficult it will be to pull it out.
To assemble a homemade “spider” yourself you will need the following elements:
- aluminum pipes for arcs;
- metal pipes for the cross;
- nylon mesh;
- rope;
- pole for the handle;
- hammer with hacksaw;
- welding machine.
We begin to assemble the “spider”.
- First you need to make a cross . You will have to flatten the pipes with a hammer so that there are no holes in them. Then weld them together perpendicularly. Weld a ring on top of the crosspiece, where you can then tie a rope.
- The next stage will be aluminum arches , which should stay tight to the structure. Small notches must be made at their ends in order to strengthen the network. For this you will need a hacksaw.
- Then you need to secure the mesh so that it sags a little, but is not too tight. When pulled, the fish will easily leave the resulting trap. You can buy the mesh or knit it yourself.
- Next, you need to tie a rope to the ring on the cross and secure its other end to the pole.
You can see the structure of the spider in the drawings.
We can say that the simplest version of a small lift has been made, and with its help you can pull fish from the shore.
Those wishing to make a larger lift will need to tie additional rope to the end of the pole, while providing support at the near end of the pole. And when the fisherman pulls the fish, the tackle will also rise. The support can be a stone or any other heavy load.
For people with greater capabilities, it is possible to make a lift of much larger dimensions than the previous two. Naturally, this will require enormous strength. Therefore, you will need serious equipment.
To prepare this tackle, the pole must be securely strengthened so that it does not change position with a large load. At its far end you need to install a roller where the rope will roll, and place a winch nearby. You can also find a strong tree and attach a pole to it. This will simplify the installation of the winch.
For a huge lift, you will have to replace the rope with a cable and use materials in the form of iron pipes and arcs.
Simple small “spiders” are pulled out of the water by tugging at the rope with your hands. This method is more common from a pier or bridge. If an angler uses a “spider” from a boat, then a long pole will be required.
Self-expanding spider for winter fishing
In the principle of operation of a self-expanding “spider”, reliability is important.
According to experts, difficulties may arise:
- unfolding the tackle;
- The cords held by the tackle often do not come together , which leads to problems in removing this device from under the ice.
How to make a spider self-expand:
- increase the weight of the tackle base with lead weights;
- It is advisable to use a float with a fixing cord;
- the cords must be passed through the ring of the adjacent “beam”.
Spider - umbrella for winter fishing
Tackle such as an “umbrella” is used more often for winter fishing than in other seasons. It also has another name, which came from the Far East - grabber.
To make an “umbrella” yourself will require effort, as well as basic knowledge and patience.
The easiest option for collecting this gear:
- 4 knitting needles for the frame;
- 4 springs;
- nylon net with cells;
- lead sinker;
- fishing line;
- 4 rods for fishing line;
- cord;
- wire;
- float;
- PVC tape.
Manufacturing process:
- The mass of the central sinker will depend on the flow of the river or lake, the depth and size of the gear.
- Springs are inserted into the sinker , with the help of which the “umbrella” opens and does not prevent it from closing when rising.
- Rods are embedded in springs.
- The coils are wrapped with PVC tape so that the springs do not cling to the net during lifting and bending.
- The fishing line, which is attached to the sinker, is connected by the weight part and the float.
- The float extends the vertical part of the “umbrella”.
- A rod made of fishing line is attached to the end of one of the rods.
- The rod is pulled to the knitting needle through the cells , and then they are threaded through a ring of wire attached to the end.
- Then the line is passed through the wing cells and between the float hole.
- , 4 fishing lines are fastened into a knot
- Then the central line is secured with a float without connecting it with a cord.
Only when the entire procedure is done correctly will the “umbrella” function perfectly.
The advantages of this gear are:
- ensuring a large catch;
- catching different types of fish;
- fishing in any season.
Along with the popular “umbrellas,” there are models that are equipped with additional floating cords and a central vertical spoke. They allow you to lower the tackle to the bottom of a reservoir or river without any problems.
To catch more fish in winter or early spring, you need to adhere to the following principles:
- an “umbrella” is lowered into the cut hole
- to the base of the mesh ;
- lower the “umbrella” to the bottom , and when it touches a hard surface it immediately opens;
- When catching fish, you need to sharply pull the cord and the “umbrella” will fold, catching the prey in a trap.
Cross for winter spider
Based on the above, the “spider” consists of metal rods mounted on a crosspiece and a mesh stretched between them.
The crosspiece is made of steel - a spring is fixed to a special structure using a bolt, which determines the operation of all other parts.
When fishing from a bridge, a rope is tied to the crosspiece. If you are fishing from the shoreline, you will need a long pole, with the help of which the lift will be delivered to the farthest fishing point.
Spider for winter fishing - price and where to buy?
You can buy such tackle for catching small or large fish in the Pan Rybolov online store by placing an order or in fishing stores. The winter lift is easy to use and has several sizes ranging from a meter to one and a half meters. In winter it is convenient to fish on such a lift, and you can lower it into the hole using a rope.
The price of a canvas for a “spider” measuring 1x1 m is 340 rubles in St. Petersburg in the “Fisherman’s Shop” store. Delivery within the city is 500 rubles .
You can also purchase a 20-cell spider mesh, which will be useful for repairing gear.
You can also select the following characteristics in the online store when placing an order:
- type of gear;
- canvas;
- cell;
- height;
- length;
- price.
A small “spider” for winter fishing can be purchased in a complete set for 800 rubles. A large "spider", accordingly, will cost more.
Spider fishing
When a fisherman has chosen a fishing spot, the following rules must be followed:
- Tie a rope to the tackle , thanks to which you can pull out the prey. The other end can be tied to the pier so that the “spider” does not float away. You can also put a wooden stake and attach a rope to it.
- You should wear gloves so as not to damage your hands with the rope when you have to handle it with the catch.
- If you use a spider from the shore , then you need to tie a pole to it, with the help of which it will be convenient to throw and pull this tackle out of the water.
- A familiar fishing spot will be a plus, especially if it has a horizontal bottom. If there are circular current movements in the reservoir, then the chance of catching more fish may increase.
- Night fishing will give better results than daytime fishing. All that remains is to periodically raise the “spider” to the surface and check for the presence of a catch.
Best places to catch spiders
Spider fishing requires the angler to know places with clean bottoms that are free of snags, aquatic vegetation and construction debris that can get caught on the installed net. Reservoirs with a strong current, which can carry away a net with their flow, are not always convenient for fishing with a lift. Most suitable for fishing with this type of device are flat or slightly sloped bottoms next to underwater anomalies in the form of the same snags, massive stones, bushes of vegetation or reed walls.
Fishing is promising at the bottom of the pit, where the fish likes to hide during dangers, or after having fed during daylight hours, take refuge for the night. They always catch fish in water areas near bridges and directly under the structures themselves, where fish find secluded corners in parts of the reservoir shaded by the structure. Small fish, live bait, are caught on coastal shallows and sandy approaches to beaches, as well as in quiet creeks and backwaters, installing a lift near the boundaries of clear water and surface algae, mud collected in the quiet waters, or duckweed covering the reservoir.
How to choose a place for fishing in winter?
Since the essential element of the lift is the net, you should choose a place for fishing based on the following rules:
- the bottom base must be clean, without construction debris, snags and a large amount of aquatic vegetation;
- the current should not be too strong;
- the bottom should be flat or have a slight slope;
- a hole in which the fish hides after it has fattened is well suited;
- Water areas near bridges or directly under them work well.
Features of fishing with a spider
Having decided on a suitable place on the pond, spider fishing begins with installing the gear. They try to silently lower the fishing device to the surface of the water at a promising point and let it sink deeper, settling on the bottom. The pole rope, attached to the handle, remains in the hands of the fisherman. After installing the spider, they wait for a certain period of time, which is initially set arbitrarily, finding out the density of fish in the fished area of the reservoir. After waiting time, they smoothly lift the net and, if there are fish, pull the device ashore, collecting the catch.
Important! If there are no results after a couple of lifts of the fishing gear, you need to increase the time you wait for the trophies to arrive.
Also, success can be brought by feeding the net installation area, when after casting, a portion of bait is fed into the lift, thus attracting live bait to the fishing site. Another effective method of fishing is to install a metal plate in the net that is different in color from the bottom, which attracts fish and also serves as a weight that allows you to install the net faster and improves its stability when fishing in currents.
How to make a spider for fishing and what types exist
Spider fishing is not clearly perceived by fishermen and, given some parameters of the device, is considered a purely poaching method of catching fish, which has nothing in common with sport fishing. But in some cases, fishing tackle is permitted for use under legitimate conditions and is an excellent help for anglers hunting for predatory fish and constantly in need of live bait. Such a tool can be purchased without any problems in a network of fishing stores and, equipped with a lightweight pole and a ten-meter piece of strong, small-diameter rope, can be used to ensure fishing with fresh live bait.
