Make a headscarf
it's not very difficult to do it yourself
Making a scarf with your own hands is not very difficult; you can start with a regular, non-folding scarf 180 cm long. It will be easy to catch and quite easy to make. And transportable. Consists of a scarf
made of
mesh
, a triangular or trapezoidal piece of reinforcement, thick depending on the fishing location.
For example, in a crucian pond
you can use 3 mm reinforcement or a rigid steel rod, or better yet 5 mm thick reinforcement, so as not to bend it due to inexperience. For currents and small-mesh fishing, you can use reinforcement up to 1 cm thick.
Mesh fabric
. Take a mesh fabric 1.8 meters high, let’s assume that you are cutting it from a doll (standard fabric is 60 m long and 1.8 m high) and calculate the number of lower cells for the scarf.
Formula: D /A*0.9 Where D is the length of the reinforcement (mm). For our sample it is equal to 1800, and the cell (mm) (for example, 45, 60, 33, i.e. the mesh of the mesh, is the distance of the line between the 2 nearest knots). Usually written on the doll or easily measured with a ruler. 0.9 - landing coefficient.
From the obtained result we take only the whole part, everything after the commas, the fractional part, is discarded. Because this error is taken into account during planting due to the fact that the outermost 4 cm are occupied by fasteners. This whole part, the number of cells
, you need to write it down on a piece of paper. And next to it write down this amount divided by 4. If it is not divisible by a whole, let’s say the remainder of 1-3 cells, then distribute it evenly across all quarters when planting. If in some quarter there is 1 cell more, and in another there is 1 less, then the fishing will not be worse, for this a coefficient of 0.9 is taken into account.
Stretch the mesh fabric
so that it hangs on the wall for several meters. Count the amount of A on the mesh fabric from the bottom corner edge. Don’t be too lazy to highlight the bottommost cells of your future scarf with some tied wool thread or something else. Otherwise they always distract you or knock you down, then you make a mistake and cut it off at an angle, or you have to recalculate... And then you cut it diagonally. From the edge, starting from the second cell from the bottom, cut so that each time the row from the edge is 1 more. You will get a pyramidal diagonal. So, cut to the top cells and separate the unnecessary corner of the mesh fabric (don’t throw it away, it may be useful for something later). You should get a pyramidal structure of the edge of the canvas. And the lowest cell is the one you marked; you haven’t reached the other one yet. Stretch this canvas somehow so that everything is visible.
Start counting along the bottom edge the number of cells A that you have calculated. Having reached the desired cell, stick a small piece of electrical tape on it or highlight it with a thread. Hold this cell and slowly cut, starting from the next one, in an upward diagonal direction so that each next row of your scarf decreases by one. You will immediately see this diagonal of cells, and the main thing is not to lose sight of it. To do this, you need to stretch and mark the outer cells. In short, you will end up with a triangular piece of canvas. If there is not one cell on top of this triangle, but several, this is normal. This depends on the size of the cell you are cutting. The main thing is that the side parts are cut off sequentially, i.e. without carving by eye, just by concealing one at a time. Otherwise they make a mistake, and then it’s hard to catch. By the way, that’s why it’s risky to buy store-bought fabric cut for scarves; they cut the doll so that it’s more economical and a smaller piece. And the canvas itself is kind of cheap. And the odds are not taken into account.
Bottom load. Take reinforcement 5 mm and 180 cm long. Straighten it. So that it is straight, like a stretched thread. The edges of the reinforcement at a distance of 2 cm are processed with a chisel to make notches. For each edge, it is enough to make 6-7 good deep cuts on both sides. You can also suffer with a file, but it’s easier with a chisel. If it’s not difficult for you, you can flatten the edges, also by 2 cm, and then make notches on the side surfaces of the flattened reinforcement. For the most skillful ones, you can weld small wire rings 0.5 cm in diameter (a simple wire, approximately 1 mm in diameter, twisted so that there is a ring and legs, and weld these legs) or drill holes at a distance of 2 cm from the edges. 2 centimeters along the edges - technological gap. Various fasteners are carried out on it, and additional elements can be installed.
The mesh fabric is attached to the rod. To do this, a nylon thread is threaded into all the lower cells, no thicker than a thread of shoe polish (no more than 1mm). The length of the thread should be 2.1 m. Having threaded the thread into the lower cells, we attach this thread with reliable knots to the notches of the reinforcement on both sides. In this case, it is necessary that the thread between the fastenings is not tensioned. The slack should be such that if you put the reinforcement at the 2 extreme points (2 cm each), for example, on 2 stools, the resulting sag should be 4-6 cm. And the fastening units themselves must be made so that the ends of the rope do not dangle. And you need to tie it in such a way that there is no twisting of the thread around the reinforcement, so that the thread is parallel to the reinforcement. By the way, the outermost side cell must be tied together with the knot that secures the string. This applies to both sides.
After this, we mark the gap between the extreme nodes on the reinforcement - into 4 equal parts. We make marks on the reinforcement with some kind of marker or chalk. Then we remember how many cells accounted for 1/4 of the total number. If there was a remainder of 1-3 pieces, then we distribute it into one additional cell in each quarter. Until the remainder runs out. For example, there were 43 cells. Mentally divided by 4 - we got 10 cells and 3 left. Then we make the first 3 of 4 quarters - 11 cells each, and the remaining quarter - 10 cells. We wrap a thread with cells with electrical tape, making sure that the resulting quarter contains the number of cells we need. The electrical tape should lie between the cells, grabbing only the thread to the reinforcement. And, if we take an example, you will get the 1st, 2nd, 3rd quarters - 11 cells each, and the 4th - 10 cells.
Next, a side vein is threaded into the extreme lateral diagonals of the scarf. This can be a nylon cord or a thick fishing line 0.8 - 1 mm in diameter, whichever is more convenient and expedient for you. The thread is threaded upward along one diagonal, then downward along the other extreme diagonal. And then you begin to maneuver the length of the vein. Immediately - tie one end of the strand in the place where it went down to the edge, over the knot of the lower selection. This is why notches and technical gaps of 2 cm were needed. The other end of the side strand is not yet fixed, and you can change the overall length of the strand by pulling or pulling cell by cell by the second end of the strand. Your task is to make the strands of such length that the total height of the mesh fabric at the highest point of the scarf is 153 cm. But at the same time, you should have a margin of + 8 cm for the loop of the scarf fastening. This reserve is not included in the height of the scarf; it is immediately marked out like a loop, but it is not tightened until the desired height of the scarf is achieved. This height is due to the vertical fit coefficient of 0.85 of the total height of the fabric 180 cm. With this fit, your scarf will have a slight slack in the mesh fabric. And then it will be better to get confused in it. And if you are fishing by hand, for example, from a bridge, then a poked fish, even larger than the one caught in your cell, may not get entangled in your scarf for long, but you will have time to pick it up and it will be in this bag. Therefore, you should not make too much sag in the lower catch, so that the fish from the net bag does not jump out into the sag in the catch. For our scarf, I have already calculated the lengths of the side veins - they are equal to 178 cm each. But to them you need to add the length of the loop +8 cm, and the length of the thread for tying knots along the edges - 15 cm on each side. In total, you need to measure 178*2 + 8 + 15*2 = 394 cm for the side strip.
The excess that remains after tying the knot should be pulled into the upper loop, let it be longer. But the final height of the scarf and the length of the veins must remain unchanged. The upper loop is a simple knot made from strands folded in two, which, by the way, captures the upper parts of the upper cells. It is necessary to tighten so that the cells do not fall out and the knot does not unravel spontaneously. But while you’re setting it up, you don’t need to tighten it too much. Having achieved the desired height, you somehow mark the thread of the side vein in the place where the tip of the scarf triangle will be, and try to have the same length of veins on the sides. This is not difficult to do, even by eye, but it is better to measure it. And then you tie the second end of the string to the technological gap.
On the right scarf
, when you lift it by the loop, the mesh fabric is tensioned evenly, but with visible slack, and the reinforcement is parallel to the floor.
If there is a distortion, it is better to eliminate it immediately by manipulating the string in the loop. As a result, you should end up with a triangular piece of network, the bottom of which is rigid reinforcement
.
Kerchief
attaches to the top loop.
If you are fishing vertically, from a bridge or from ice, you need to make some kind of alarm when fish hit. This could be a twig stuck into the ice, to the top of which a thread of a scarf is attached, a float that you made with a removable antenna, and it runs freely until the scarf melts to the bottom, and only then you clamp the rope in the float with the antenna ( it should be a float the size of a fist, and the antenna should be some kind of wooden rod the thickness of a pencil, which is inserted into the hole of the float under tension). The mesh should be tensioned with a float or rod. And you shouldn’t give in any slack. If you did everything correctly, you will immediately see that your landing is similar to landing on a good mesh. And you can fish with it in the bay, on the sea, and in the crucian pond. Moreover, selected crucian carp
, while you might not have caught them with a fishing rod, (they have a headache) you don’t want to eat them. Or you want it, but not what you planted.
You need to determine how many scarves you want to make. This affects your costs for netting or fishing line. It is more expedient to buy a whole canvas 60 m long and 1.8 m high at once. This is the most universal height size. And at the same time, this length of mesh fabric will be enough for you for several seasons of continuous use of scarves, when you no longer darn the old fabric, but simply cut it off and plant a new one. In addition, you will probably want to make more than one scarf. After all, it’s more interesting to put a scarf in several not overgrown places, for example in a crucian carp pond, and then feed these places. It is not necessary to make the scarf as long as they usually sell in the store. There they cut off a minimal piece of canvas and sell it at such a price that if you regularly fish with scarves and change canvases, you will very quickly understand that it is better to pay once and buy an excellent Finnish or Japanese cloth made of durable and, at the same time, the thickness of the fishing line you need, and then make the scarves that you need. At least 2 meters, at least 4.
Then you will get the hang of making scarves, and if you fish in deep places, from a boat, or in a hole in winter, you can make scarves 4 meters long. (Don’t forget that sometimes the fishing depth will not allow you to use such large scarves. In shallow water, for example, they will not stand up). Naturally, scarves can be folding. The odds remain the same. Dividing the bottom cord into 4 parts for each half (if you fold the scarf into 2 parts). Don't forget to slightly increase the length of the bottom cord so that you can unfold and fold the scarf. But also remember that a large gap between the selection and the fittings is a loophole for fish.
A folding scarf can be made from your ready-made scarf 1.8 in length or more. The calculation is that you have made the scarf more transportable, but at the same time increased its length.
It's easy to do. The lower reinforcement is cut into as many pieces as you need. And in places of cuts, a metal tube is put on one side of the reinforcement up to half the length of the tube, so that it fits onto the reinforcement with a small gap or tightly. And the tube is made at least 7 cm long. It can be more than 10, 12. On the side on which the tube is placed, it is pinched with a hammer blow so that it does not dangle. Or come up with another way to strengthen the tube on the fittings. A piece of reinforcement is inserted into the remaining hole. For example, such a scarf, as described in the example, will be 94 - 98 cm in the folded state without rings due to the protruding part of the tube. It is convenient to wrap such a folded scarf around a ski box or ice auger, put it in a backpack and transport it like that, and then unfold it on the spot.
The side veins of a scarf longer than 180 cm can form an isosceles triangle with the length of the side vein being 10 cm longer than the lower reinforcement. But at the same time, on each strand you need to attach a rope (upper selection), so that at a height of 153-155 cm from the reinforcement it passes between the strands, the upper loops of the scarf are hung on it, they do not need to be divided into parts, just thread all the cells onto this rope, the outer ones fasten the upper harness together with the tie-down knots. Try to make knots so that they do not stick out. And so that pieces of thick rope or fishing line do not cling to the cells, it is better to wrap them with electrical tape, or come up with something else. It is unacceptable for the upper harness to tighten the side strings, violating the shape of the triangle, and at the same time, it is unacceptable for it to dangle hanging. It is allowed to sag in the upper harness no more than 2 cm when the gusset is fully tensioned and the reinforcement is hanging. Those. The final adjustment of the upper trim should be done last.
If the height of the scarf is about 4 meters, it will catch with the lower part at a level of 153 cm. You can make such a scarf so that it catches at the entire height. Just combine on one upper selection both the upper cells of the lower fabric and the lower ones of the upper one. But I didn’t make such a scarf, because most of our fish are caught in the bottom layer, even at great depths of 10-13 meters. It is obvious that in terms of the height of the hit into the scarf, it falls in the lower 50-60 cm.
Additional winter fishing attributes may be required. These are side rings and winter lifting thread. The side rings are needed to prevent the edge of the reinforcement from getting into the cell, after which the gusset will not be able to stand under the ice. These rings are made of 1-1.5 mm steel wire. The diameter of the rings is 5 mm larger than the double cell of the scarf. But no more than the diameter of the hole that you can drill. We must also take into account that the hole is slowly freezing over. In general, the wire should be spring-loaded and slightly compressed, if the diameter is large, when it enters the hole, and then no deformation. The ring is easy to make. The circle is bent, 2 bends are made at a distance of 5-7 mm from each other. And 2 such rings are attached, one piece on each side, in the place of technological gaps. You can weld them, or wrap them with thin wire - at your discretion. Just make sure that nothing comes out, that everything is smooth and wrapped with electrical tape on top. Otherwise, all the time there are burrs, bitten off ends of the wire, bent, and the cell tries to snag the whole thing. So you definitely need to wrap it.
The winter thread is attached to the ring, screwed in the opposite place where the ring is attached to the part of the scarf. Or, if you don’t install rings (for example, when using a 180 cm scarf, you don’t need to install them; in the proportion I indicated, side hooks are practically eliminated), from any technological gap. This thread is attached to either side, right or left. The upper part of the thread should be attached above the place where the top loop of the scarf is attached to the approximate thickness of the ice, + 15 cm. That is, if in winter your ice is at least 70 cm thick, then you need to attach your Winter thread above the place where the loop is attached to lifting thread, 70 + 15 = 85 cm. The thread should not warp the scarf. It should hang with a slightly noticeable sag. In winter, you lower the scarf into the hole sideways. Ice drill knives should be placed to make the hole as wide as possible. Those. When in combat working condition, we lower the scarf vertically. This is where rings and careful sealing of all ends from the fasteners are needed. Under the ice, the scarf straightens out on its own and returns to its original horizontal position. After that, lower it to the bottom, attach a float or twig. Waiting for fish. Gotcha - there is a signal. Raise the main rope to which the scarf and winter thread are tied (the winter thread is tied above), and soon you will see it. Then you just grab this winter thread and pull the scarf! Kerchief
under the ice it takes a vertical position and is pulled out into the hole!
If you have a large scarf of 4 meters, made of 8 mm smooth reinforcement (this is exactly what I have for depths), then in general you need to make both the main and winter threads from a braided nylon cord (so that it does not twist), and make all the knots strong . Because sometimes there are so many fish that you can barely pull it into the hole, there is such a force of friction and heaviness. And if there is a flock of breams, then this is where a double scarf is needed, because the single scarf cracks and bursts when entering the hole. But this is if the fishing line is bad. But Finnish paintings generally hold up.

Type of scarf with top selection
And how they pull her into the hole
Recently, a large number of people have become interested in fishing. Moreover, they fish both in summer and in winter. For fishing in the cold season, various types of gear are used, among which the scarf has become very popular.
Features of the scarf
The scarf is quite a useful and convenient tackle for fishing enthusiasts due to its features:
- It has the shape of a triangle, thanks to which it easily fits into the hole;
- Easy to use, to catch fish you just need to attach it to a rope;
- Easily removed from under the ice.
The design does not have a float and is intended only for ice fishing. However, it is not possible to fish with it throughout the entire winter period; in severe frosts it will not bring any catch.
Let's celebrate!
It is best to use the device at the beginning of the winter, when the ice is just getting stronger; at this time, the fish are looking for a parking place, so they gather in schools.
Description of the scarf
This type of gear consists of:
- Metal frame;
- Canvases mainly use a mesh with small-sized cells;
- At the top of the structure there is a ring, behind which the scarf is attached to the rope.
The frame of the device most often consists of a metal rod, which simultaneously serves as a sinker, with the help of which the structure is lowered under the water to the very bottom.
Note!
The size of the cells on the grid is selected individually. If you plan to catch small fish, then the dimensions should be no more than 20 mm. If fishing tackle is used for fish that will go to the fish soup, then the mesh size must be at least 50 mm.
The principle of fishing with a scarf
Fishing with this type of structure is quite simple. To do this, fishing tackle is lowered into the prepared hole, always with the sinker down so that it is at the bottom. After this, the fish are fed with special food, which uses ready-made mixtures with plant or animal additives. Rusks, swollen grains, cake or maggots are often used as additives.
In different winter periods, the device is lowered to different depths. At the very beginning of winter, when the ice has just hardened, the fishing gear is lowered closer to the ice surface. This is done because the fish is quite active and has not sunk to the bottom.
The same is done at the end of the winter period, when the air temperature becomes significantly higher, this is explained by the fact that the fish rise closer to the ice surface due to the large amount of oxygen in the water.
In the middle of winter, it is practically not used, since the fish sinks to the very bottom, buries itself in the silt, where it finds food for itself and does not freeze. Therefore, the fish is not interested in complementary feeding, and it will not come up for it. In severe frosts, fishing with a scarf is useless; there will be no catch, since the fish will not come out for food.
Note!
After the fisherman feeds the fish, a scarf is placed in the hole. It must be left for a certain period of time, and then checked. This type of fishing tackle allows a fishing enthusiast to fish not only with it, but also to use a fishing rod at the same time. In this case, the catch will be larger and richer, just don’t forget to check the scarf periodically.
Kerchief tackle is an interesting way to catch fish during winter fishing and a quick way to get live bait for girders
With such gear as a scarf, you can catch, for example, live bait in winter, or fish directly on the grill. In just one cast you can catch more than one specimen, without any unnecessary movements.
Everyone should understand that you can’t catch fish from the pond without effort. Therefore, it is necessary to be able to use such equipment and know how to use it correctly.
Fishing with a capsicum during winter fishing, like other gear, has its own approach and tricks. And excitement and interest manifests itself when you find a catchy place and get a hefty catch onto the ice.
A kerchief is a simple winter fishing tackle and a way to quickly catch live bait for girders
Some will consider the headscarf to be poaching gear. And to some extent they will be wrong. I’ll say right away that such kerchief gear is not included in the list of prohibited items.
But there are individuals who, for the sake of profit, often neglect and take advantage - they put a scarf in large quantities (from 5) and fish with it in the wrong places (wintering pits).
This is no longer a completely fair way of winter fishing.
What is a scarf tackle for winter fishing?
In the summer, “screen” or “TV” – whatever you like, and in winter – “kerchief”.
Can you guess what we're talking about?
Yes, this is not a sportive form of fishing! Part of the mesh is used.
If in summer there are no obstacles in the form of ice, so summer copies of scarves are made rectangular, then in winter it is difficult to lower and lift such tackle into the hole.
A scarf is a triangular piece of fishing net (an isosceles triangle - hence the name of the net - it looks like a lady's headscarf), the lower part of which is tied to a steel rod.
Thick steel wire serves as a sinker. Due to this, the scarf is quickly delivered and pulled vertically.
A rope for fishing or a thick fishing line is placed along the other two thighs-sides of the triangle.
The dimensions of the triangular mesh are no more than 1.5 meters on each side.
The grid cells are selected depending on the fishing conditions. Small baitfish are caught on a net with cells from 10 to 18 mm, and larger fish are caught on a net with cells up to 50 mm.
Where and when can you fish with a scarf during winter fishing?
It is best to catch winter fish with a scarf on the first ice and closer to spring - on the last ice. In the wilderness you won’t catch much with such gear.
In winter, a scarf can also serve as a supplement to the main types of fishing.
You need to catch such gear in places where fish accumulate - in holes and cliffs. Fry are caught with live bait in the upper layers, and larger fish are caught at the bottom.
Do-it-yourself scarf for winter fishing - quick and easy to make
Honestly, such winter gear as a scarf can be purchased in a store for little money - from 100 to 350 rubles.
Well, you can make a scarf yourself quickly and without problems.
To make your own headscarf for winter fishing you will need:
- steel rod with a diameter of 5 mm,
- fishing net with mesh 10-50 mm,
- nylon rope or thick fishing line (0.7-0.8 mm).
Well, a tool suitable for making a scarf.
1. Cut out an isosceles triangle from a piece of net, the sides of which are 1-1.5 meters long.
2. Next, the lower side is attached using knots to a steel bar.
3. We tie a fishing line to one end of the rod and thread it through the mesh cells of one of the edges of the triangle.
4. At the end of the fishing line we form a loop through which the nylon rope passes to the other end of the steel bar.
How to fish with a scarf during winter fishing: tactics and principles of fishing
There is nothing difficult about fishing with a scarf during winter fishing.
The most important thing in fishing tactics with such gear is to feed the fish correctly.
If there is a current, then several holes are drilled for feeding. The bait should be, like all winter bait, loose, creating a cloudy cloud.
Downstream, a working hole is drilled into which the gusset is lowered.
We fill this hole with snow and small branches. Then you should move away from the hole so as not to scare the fish.
Every hour or half an hour you can check the tackle for catches.
And I would also like to draw attention to the fact that fishing for us is a hobby, not profit. Original article here: Scarf for catching fish during winter fishing. Original article here: Scarf for fishing during winter fishing

How to make a scarf
A scarf is one of the simple fishing tackles that you can build yourself.
What you will need
To make a scarf, you need to prepare the following materials:
- Fishing net with the required cell dimensions;
- A metal rod or thick wire, the diameter must be at least 5 mm, the length must be at least 1.5 m;
- Thick fishing line or thread made of nylon with a diameter of at least 0.8 mm.
The metal rod will simultaneously serve as both a frame and a sinker.
Manufacturing process
After all the materials have been prepared, proceed to the construction of fishing gear:
- Lay the mesh on a flat surface, use a ruler to measure an isosceles triangle, the length of the base and sides of which is equal to the size of the rod or wire, and cut the workpiece with scissors.
- Using a chisel, make notches on a metal rod or wire, the distance between which should be 20 mm, this will allow the mesh to be more firmly attached to the rod.
- Attach the canvas using fishing line or nylon thread to the rod where the cuts are made; there must be a shallow sag; without it, the structure will not bring any catch.
- Thread a thread of nylon through each cell on the sides, and attach a metal ring to the top.
Note!
Nylon thread allows you to create a reinforcing base. It is also necessary to make loops on the sides, with the help of which the scarf will be attached to the rope.
Fishing technique with a scarf
Using a scarf for fishing is simple:
- First of all, you need to decide on the place where the fishing will take place. In cold weather, all types of fish gather in wintering pits and stop actively swimming under water.
- Choose bait, it is better to take several types of mixture. Also take equipment for drilling a hole; if the ice thickness is more than 10 cm, then you cannot do without an ice ax.
- Make a hole and apply bait.
- After this, lower the scarf under the ice and connect it with a rope so that the tackle does not go under water.
- Mask the hole with snow and tree branches; this must be done so that the fish does not get scared of the fishing structure and does not go far from the hole made.
Good to know!
Even a beginner can easily master fishing with a scarf. To do this, you need to choose the right place, prepare food and wait a certain time.
Subtleties of proper fishing
Fishing with a scarf is a very exciting activity that interests not only experienced fishermen, but also beginners who want to experience new emotions and get vivid impressions. Fishing with this method is very simple, so even an inexperienced person can easily master the basic subtleties of casting techniques and further operation of the gear. The key to successful fishing is determining the current location of the fish. To do this, you need to at least understand the peculiarities of its behavior in winter, taking into account the many years of experience of colleagues and local fishermen.
It is no secret that in the first days of winter, the inhabitants of the depths stay in wintering pits almost without leaving them. To quickly determine their location and then go fishing successfully, you should follow these recommendations:
Good feeding of a promising hole is already half the battle
It is important to properly feed the appropriate area, using proven store-bought products or formulations created according to your own recipe. The second option is more interesting, because it allows you to create good bait for specific conditions
They may contain breadcrumbs, mixed feed, steamed wheat grains, all kinds of cereals, plant and animal components, etc. Comfortable winter fishing is impossible without a good ice auger. Of course, if the thickness of the ice in the chosen place does not exceed 10 centimeters, then it can be cut with a sharp crowbar, although it is not entirely safe to be on such a surface. If the ice is much thicker, then it is advisable to use a powerful ice drill. After making sure that all the holes are prepared, you can start feeding the fish. To do this, you need to take a special feeder where the complementary food is placed, and lower it to the bottom, where the load will begin to crumble and create a cloudy cloud that can arouse the interest of even the laziest prey. After successful feeding, you can place a scarf in the hole, tied to a reel or stick using a strong cord. With a passive fishing method, such fixing elements can be sprinkled with snow and moved to the side so as not to scare the fish. Experts recommend using a scarf for fishing only at the beginning of winter and during the last ice, since during this time period the chances of a successful catch are maximum and costs are reduced to a minimum.

Reviews from fishermen
A headscarf is quite a convenient device if you choose the right place. In some cases, the fish stand in a school, the bait swims nearby, and they do not react to it. Accordingly, there is no catch. This is also affected by camouflage. If you don't disguise the scarf, the fish won't be caught.
Alexander
I fish with a scarf only at night. In the evening I’ll set up the fishing tackle, cover it with snow and various branches, and go to bed. In the morning, in most cases, I get a good catch. At night, the fish are less timid because there is silence and darkness.
For catching fish on the ear, it is better to use nets with large cells. Small things are not suitable for her; they will only ruin the taste. Therefore, feel free to purchase a large mesh and make a scarf. By the way, it is more important to use a metal rod as a sinker; it is stronger and heavier than wire.
Knitting a scarf is quite a long and tedious task.
Not everyone can handle stretching a nylon thread through each cell. It takes a lot of time. Very painstaking work. It is better to purchase fabric and rope blanks in specialized stores. Modern fishing
is becoming more and more entertaining and spectacular every day. Some types of fishing are not inferior in entertainment even to sports such as football or hockey. The most active and impatient people rush to the store for the most modern spinning rod. But quite recently, fishing was the prerogative of a completely different type of people.
A modern person does not have to fish for his family to be well-fed and happy. But it is from the fish that you catch with your own hands that the most delicious fish soup is obtained. If the purpose of fishing is to catch
, the network will serve you best. Fishing with a scarf in winter is very popular among fishermen.
Fishing with nets will not surprise anyone in the warm season
However, with the onset of cold weather, fishermen with nets are seen on reservoirs less and less until they disappear completely. Most give up this idea for the reason that with the beginning of winter, the fish enters a passive state, in which it feeds several times less often and practically does not move. Such fish are found mainly on the bottom.
Therefore, with the beginning of winter, donke fishing enthusiasts become more active. Many of these hobbyists are those who fished with nets in the summer. This makes it clear why the number of fishermen with nets is significantly reduced.
If bottom fishing particularly attracts an angler
, then with the beginning of winter he can easily leave the network in the closet. But if you don’t have a particularly reverent love for bottom fishing, then the fisherman should definitely get acquainted with the “kerchief”. This gear guarantees the angler a big catch at least until mid-winter.
A network called "kerchief"
is one of the most catchy types of ice fishing. Despite the fact that fish often begin to lose activity already in mid-autumn, at the beginning of winter, fishing with a scarf is more effective.
What is tackle
This is a triangular-shaped screen tackle, the main task of which is to entangle fish in a short time in the water. Thanks to its convenient shape, it is widely used in winter fishing. It consists of a frame made of metal and a mesh mesh attached to it, and the size of the cells depends on the size of the fish that is caught with this gear. The weight of the frame serves as a sinker in the water.
Fishing tackle "kerchief" is widely used in winter fishing because of its convenient triangular shape, which easily fits into the hole. Before you start fishing, the fishing area is well-fed, and only then do they begin to install the gear. After feeding, the tackle is attached to a rope and immersed in the hole. The success of fishing with a scarf depends on the fishing conditions: the active peak of the bite will be at the beginning and end of winter, in severe frost it will be difficult to catch anything with it.
Tips for fisherman: How to catch roach in winter using a jig - Detailed review
A scarf is a very useful tackle for every fisherman.
Let's consider what is required for manufacturing, and how to make a scarf for fishing with your own hands will be described in the next section:
- fishing net - the size of the mesh depends on the fisherman, the choice is individual;
- 5 mm wire - it is necessary to create a frame;
- nylon thread, thick fishing line.
Use scarves at the very beginning of winter, when the ice has just hardened. Fishing at this time is much more effective, since during this period they are looking for a place to stop, but be careful - fishing on thin ice can be dangerous.
It is necessary to thread the vein upward into the cells on one side of the fabric. Then this vein needs to be threaded down the other side. The vein should be secured to the reinforcement rod in the place where the lower edge is secured on both sides. It is necessary that the vein passes through all the cells of the network fabric up and down. It is necessary to leave about 9 cm of veins on the upper part of the canvas to connect the fastening loops. Finally, you need to tighten the top loop of the “kerchief” with an ordinary knot.
Headscarves are screen tackles. They are lowered into the water for a short time, then rise, after which the fish entangled in the screen net are collected. TV - pieces of nets of 4-gonal shape, having sinkers and a float. The scarves have a 3-corner shape. They are mainly used during winter fishing, when it can be easily pulled into the hole. Making such a fishing net yourself is quite easy.
Stages of work
You should purchase a piece of net with the required parameters from a fishing store; you may also need a braided cord. The mesh sizes should be selected in accordance with the type of fish that will be caught in this way.
How to make a headscarf
Various fish are caught using a scarf. Depending
Depending on the size of the fish being hunted, a scarf with the appropriate parameters is made.
An ordinary fishing net (mesh) is used as the basis for the scarf. Depending on the purpose of fishing, choose a net with small or large cells. To convert
This scarf net will also require an iron rod with a diameter of about 5 mm and a rope (thick fishing line).
The purchased net must be spread on a flat surface. Using electrical tape
you need to mark the edges of the future network. This must be done taking into account allowances for fastening. Usually these are two or three cells.
The scarf has a triangular shape. To mark edges
, first determine the vertices of the triangle. Two vertices are marked arbitrarily. After this, the middle between them is marked. A distance equal to the height of the future tackle is retreated perpendicularly upward from this point.
At this point there will be the third vertex of the triangle. Once the edges are marked, the excess net can be cut off. You will get a triangle.
After this, an iron rod is taken. From 4 to 6 notches are made on it. The distance between the notches is approximately 2 centimeters. A rope or thick fishing line is threaded along the lower edge of the canvas, securing it with knots at the notches. It's worth keeping an eye on
so that there is a slight slack in the edge of the net, and the thread runs parallel to the rod without twisting.
The length of the net edge is divided into 4 equal parts, after which the thread is attached to the reinforcing rod. The thread is threaded through each cell of the network.
At the top of the scarf, leave about 10 cm of rope (fishing line) for fastening.
How to catch
Fishing with a scarf in winter
a fairly simple task. You can master it in a couple of trips to the pond. And even then, all this time the fisherman will learn more to look for fish than to master the skill of fishing with this equipment.
For successful fishing
good complementary feeding is required for the headscarf. You can feed the fish with mixed feed, steamed grains, pasta or even crumbled bread. Certain fish will be caught well with any bait, while others will prefer something specific.
Naturally, to install the gusset, you must first cut (drill) a hole. Actually, complementary feeding is done through the hole. The scarf is lowered into the hole
until it touches the bottom. The end of the cord or fishing line is secured to a stick or reel. The stick or reel is left on the hole. To prevent them from falling into the water, they are placed across.
After that, all that remains is to wait. The fish will almost certainly end up in the net, so you can start thinking about how it will be cooked.
Fishing with a scarf
is one of the most catchy ways in winter. However, by mid-winter this fishing method loses its effectiveness.
But after a couple of weeks, closer to spring, the scarf begins to produce a catch again. So, with the help of this equipment, you can delight yourself and your loved ones with wonderful fish dishes all winter long.

So if this is not poaching, then you can fish like this in winter Fishing with nets in winter is very well depicted in the video:
This kind of fishing has been known for a long time. So, for example, in Yakutia in the 11th-20th centuries they caught fish. Of course, the use of nets in winter is effective only in large bodies of water. In winter , there is no vegetation in the water, which means there is no food near the shore. Catching fish on the video screen Therefore, the fish goes to look for food at depth, in the muddy soil. This is the best place to install the mesh in winter .
By spring, the catch should be looked for near the shores of reservoirs or polynyas where there is more oxygen movement. At this time of year, water saturated with oxygen is more important for fish than places rich in food.
Installation of gear
We answer the question: “How to catch fish in winter with a net through a hole?”
Installing it in winter is quite difficult. Watch fishing with a scarf video!. Fishing with scarves No. 5. Friends, subscribe. spinning fishing for predatory fish on a small lake. Catching pike with minnow and crank wobblers. It is better if this is done not by one, but by several people.
Selecting a location
Fishing with nets in winter begins with choosing a place. It’s good if you know in advance that there are no snags in this place for your gear to get tangled in. The selected location must be cleared of snow.
Cutting down ice holes
At the two ends of this site, two rectangular ice holes are cut out. The distance between them is from 8 to 10 meters. Fishing on the riverbed is complicated by large depths; fishing for roach in winter requires a feeder (30). The ice hole is called a lane. Its size: length 1 meter, width 50 centimeters. For cutting down use a pick or a chainsaw. Between two lanes, two more ice holes are made at a distance of 3 meters.
Fishing in winter with a scarf, making a scarf. We invite you to watch a video about it. The edges of one and the other lane are beveled as soon as possible and made as smooth as possible. This is necessary so that the tackle can freely pass into these ice holes and not cling to the ice.
By the way, if your tackle is large, then you will cut holes not at a distance of 10 meters, but more, along the length of the tackle.
If you watch the video, it will be clear how winter net fishing works.
Equipment needed to set up the tackle:
- A long pole, called a purlin, about 10 meters;
- A rope 60 meters long, called a race;
- Sticks with hooks 2 meters long, which you will use to correct the run in the ice holes, are also called soshales.
Video
We present you videos on catching fish with a scarf in the winter.
A scarf can be classified as screen gear, such as a fishing screen or, as it is popularly called, a “TV.” They are lowered into the water for a certain time, after which they rise. The result of such fishing will be fish, which during this time may become entangled in the screen’s net. The “TV” has a 4-corner design, and the scarf has a 3-corner design. This makes it possible to use such tackle for winter fishing, since the triangular shape allows you to insert the tackle into the hole. Making a headscarf with your own hands is not that difficult.
Useful video
Next, let's watch a video about park fishing with a kerchief in winter:
The scarf has proven itself to be an effective means of catching fish in winter conditions. In skillful hands, in a catchable place, with properly prepared bait, it works great even in unfavorable weather conditions, when ordinary tackle equipped with a hook is unproductive.
But we must never forget that a real, correct fisherman never takes an excessive amount of fish, especially fry, which must subsequently grow up and give birth to their offspring. Everyone needs to remember about the safety of fish stocks in our reservoirs, and then our children and grandchildren will also be able to go fishing, enjoying their catch.

Stages of work
The most important thing is to purchase it in a store or knit it yourself, a piece of network
, having cells of certain sizes. The size of the cells depends on the size of the fish intended to be caught. If this is live bait, then the cells will be within 20mm, and if these are full-fledged specimens, then the size of the cells can be within 50mm and above.
Then you need to take a rod from the reinforcement
or ordinary metal and make an isosceles triangle (frame). It can be welded by electric welding, but it is better to make it collapsible. This will allow you to transport and store the gear without any problems.
The next stage is attaching the network fabric
to the metal frame using a durable nylon cord, preferably green. The fastening will be correct and effective if each cell of the fabric is attached to the frame.
Final stage
The final stage is to control the correct fastening of the network fabric to the frame
. Under no circumstances should the fabric be stretched. It must be secured in such a way that the edges of the net sag by at least 5cm. This is achieved by stretching a nylon thread along the perimeter of the scarf, without passing through a single cell. After that:
- The length of each edge of the net is divided into 4 parts.
- The corresponding cells are marked.
After this, the nylon thread is attached to the frame of the tackle in the corresponding cells.
Naturally, it is very difficult to adapt a purchased network to a metal frame exactly as required by the design of a scarf or “TV”. Here you will have to work a lot, putting into practice not only your skills, but also your ingenuity. The only correct approach to solving this problem is to independently weave a network of the required configuration: for a TV - square, and for a scarf - triangular. It’s no secret that this will require some time, but assembling such equipment will require a minimum of time. Basically, fishermen do such work in winter, when there is much more work than in summer, although recently few fishermen have been engaged in weaving gear. It is much easier to go to the store and buy a ready-made network, with any size of cells.
A simple way to knit a fishing net, like a scarf Video
If someone does not know how to connect a similar network, then you can watch the corresponding video, which tells and shows how to quickly and easily connect such a network with your own hands.
A large number of fishermen do not put away their favorite gear even during the winter, but continue to regularly go out on the ice to engage in their favorite hobby. One of the popular gears even in winter remains the “kerchief”. In this article we will tell you in more detail how to fish with a scarf from the ice in winter.
Schematic representation of the kerchief tackle
Fishing principle
A fishing scarf is a triangular tackle that consists of a steel frame with a mesh cloth attached to it. The steel frame also acts as a sinker, which allows the tackle to sink to the bottom. The size of the cells of the scarf can be anything, it all depends on what kind of fish you plan to catch. If the scarf is used to catch live bait fish, then the mesh size should not exceed more than 20 mm. If the tackle is used for catching serious fish, then the mesh size should be 50 mm or more.
The tackle is attached to a rope and lowered into a hole that has previously been baited in order to attract fish. The scarf needs to be lowered to the very bottom, since the fish prefer to be there. The headscarf works most effectively at the beginning and end of the winter period. But the catching qualities of the scarf during the dead winter leave much to be desired.
Depending on the fishing conditions, the scarf can also be installed in the water column, closer to the surface, when small fish rise in search of food or an additional breath of oxygen. Fishing with a scarf can be either active or passive, when the gear is installed for the whole night or all day. Some anglers use a scarf during regular fishing by placing it in an adjacent hole.
Application of bait
A scarf is a fairly small net, which means that some additional factor is needed to attract fish to the place where the net is installed. Along with this gear, you almost always have to use one or another version of bait mixtures. It is important to take into account that the composition of these mixtures will differ significantly depending on the season.
In open water, a light mixture with a pronounced aroma of spices will work well (this smell is attractive to most types of fish). In this case, you should simultaneously use both highly moistened bait balls, which will work when they fall to the bottom, and under-moistened ones, which will create a trail in the water column that attracts fish. In order to increase the effectiveness of bait, animal components of maggots, red dung worms or food bloodworms can be added to its composition.
Important! You can use the technique of feeder athletes: cut the red worm or maggots with scissors, and only then add it to the bait. This smell can attract the attention of even the most passive fish.
Fishing tactics with a scarf
The tactics of fishing with a scarf are very simple, so any novice angler can master it. The main condition for successful fishing is a successful search for fish sites.
You can use store-bought complementary foods or, again, prepare them yourself. The main thing is not to overdo it with flavorings.
After feeding the hole, you need to lower a scarf into it, which is tied to a cord, and that to a stick or reel. They (a reel or a stick) should be placed across the hole. Then the hole itself needs to be sprinkled with twigs or snow. The tackle can be left in this position for several hours. The scarf will allow you to catch a sufficient amount of fish with minimal material and physical costs.
Small fish should be released, leaving only worthy specimens in the catch
Installing a scarf in a pond
Before you start lowering the triangle into the water through the hole, you should feed the fish in advance. Experienced winter fishermen know all the intricacies of complementary feeding:
- soaked pressing from the processing of sunflower seeds into oil;
- steamed cereal grains;
- store-bought crackers for cutlets.
Complementary food in standing water can simply be poured into a hole, and as it flows, placed in some kind of low container-feeder so that the water does not wash away.
But besides home-made fish bait, there are effective factory-made ones, for example, with the addition of farm animal blood. So schools of fish literally fly to her in the water. And they will retain this instinct for more than one day.
Rules for fishing with a scarf
It is very important, when using a scarf, to adhere to some fishing rules that will allow not only our generation, but also the next one, to enjoy the process. If you can’t find a fishing spot, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to catch anything with a scarf, because... Fishing with a scarf in wintering pits is prohibited by law.
Having caught enough fish, you need to take with you only the amount that you can eat at one time. Don't be greedy. The rest of the fish should be released.
The same should be done with small change. Let him grow up rather than feed the cat. She can be caught next time.
