3. “夏钓渊”，即盛夏时节，高温酷暑，烈日当头，浅水区的水温多在30℃以上。由于水温过高，鱼儿不适应，大多到深水区去“避暑”、觅食了，故而浅水区很少有鱼，即便有也不吃食。所以夏天垂钓应选在深水区或桥洞里。早晚则浅水区水温较低，可以钓到鱼。

3. "Summer fishing in the deep water," referring to the hot summer season with extreme temperatures and scorching sun, where the water temperature in shallow areas often exceeds 30℃. Due to the high water temperature, fish are not adapted to it and most of them move to the deeper water areas to "cool off" and forage, hence there are very few fish in the shallow areas, and even if there are, they do not feed. Therefore, summer fishing should be done in deep water areas or under bridges. In the early morning and evening, the water temperature in shallow areas is lower, and fish can be caught.

4. 鱼儿在水中游动，对岸边人畜的动响和倒影十分敏感。之所以“上午钓西，下午钓东”，一是可以防止垂钓时人和渔竿在水中形成倒影，使鱼受惊吓而逃逸；二是冬天垂钓，上午西边光照充分，下午东边光照充分，水温相对较高，有利于鱼儿活动和觅食，因而上钩率较高。

4. Fish are very sensitive to the sounds and reflections of people and animals on the shore as they swim in the water. The reason for "fishing in the west in the morning and in the east in the afternoon" is twofold: first, it helps prevent the fish from being frightened and escaping because the angler and the fishing rod do not form a reflection in the water during the fishing; second, during winter fishing, the sun shines fully in the west in the morning and in the east in the afternoon, resulting in relatively higher water temperatures which are conducive to the activity and foraging of the fish, thus increasing the likelihood of successful catches.

19. During the plum rain season, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the southeastern coastal areas experience continuous rain and abundant rainfall. The rivers and lakes receive a large amount of rainwater, which also brings land insects, plant debris, and organic matter into the water bodies, providing sufficient bait for fish. At the same time, the rain increases the oxygen content in the water significantly. Fish are extremely active, with a strong appetite and frequently biting hooks, making it an excellent time for fishing.

22. The best time for summer fishing is when the wind blows from the west, followed by the southwest. This is because when the wind blows from the west or southwest, it is not too hot in the morning and evening, the fish are active, and it is suitable for fishing. However, if the wind blows from the southwest at noon, due to the hot and humid weather, there is a lack of oxygen in the water, causing the fish to float to the surface and not bite the hook, which is not conducive to fishing.

33. Before the summer thunderstorms arrive, dark clouds gather, swallows fly low, the air is very humid, the atmospheric pressure is low, the oxygen in the water is scarce, fish find it hard to bear, and they all float to the surface, losing their appetite, so they won't bite the hook. This is the reason behind the saying "It's better to fish after the sunset than before the thunderstorm."

34. 平时勤修竿和线，钩鱼时鱼难脱逃。

34. Regularly maintain the rod and line, and the fish will be hard to escape when fishing.

35. The fishing proverb "Better to fish after the sun sets than before thunderstorms" refers to the fact that during summer, when the weather is hot, especially at noon when the temperatures are very high, there is severe oxygen deficiency in the water. Fish feel uncomfortable holding their breath and tend to float in the middle and upper layers of the water, resulting in a very low hook-biting rate. After the sun sets, the temperature drops, and the gentle breeze ripples the water, creating sparkling waves with a significantly increased oxygen content. At this time, the fish become active, eagerly searching for food, and they frequently bite the hook.

44. 所谓中午钓远，主要是指夏天垂钓。夏天中午岸边的水温较高，鱼儿忍受不了高温，纷纷游到远处的深水区去“避暑”去了，所以中午在岸边很难钓到鱼儿。此时必须用长竿长线或海竿，才能在离岸边较远的深水区钓到鱼，所以中午钓远。

44. The so-called midday fishing at a distance mainly refers to summer fishing. During the midday in summer, the water temperature on the shore is higher, and the fish cannot endure the high temperature, so they all swim to the deeper water areas further away to "avoid the summer heat." Therefore, it is difficult to catch fish on the shore at noon. At this time, one must use a long rod with a long line or a surfcasting rod to fish in the deeper water areas further away from the shore, which is why it is called midday fishing at a distance.

49. In the hot summer, due to the high temperature and the southeast wind bringing a large amount of water vapor, the moisture in the atmosphere increases, the air pressure decreases, leading to a reduction in the dissolved oxygen content in water bodies. Fish, under conditions of oxygen deficiency, are not interested in eating or moving, resulting in a very low hook rate. The fishing proverb, "Old fisherman, old fisherman, do not fish in the southeast wind," conveys this meaning.

53. Generally, fish are most active in water temperatures ranging from 15℃ to 30℃, which is also the best time for fishing. The so-called "spring fishing on the bank" refers to the middle of March when spring is warm and flowers are blooming, the temperature rises, and in the shallow water areas under the sun, the water temperature rises quickly, reaching about 15℃, so the aquatic organisms in the shallow water areas recover quickly as well. Therefore, it becomes a place where fish gather to forage, making spring a good season for fishing in sunny shallow water areas.

54. “上午钓西，下午钓东”的弊端是：迎着阳光垂钓，不容易观察到渔漂的反应。必须戴遮阳帽和太阳镜，或者侧身垂钓，才能克服晃眼、看漂不清的'弊端。

54. The disadvantage of the saying "fish in the west in the morning, fish in the east in the afternoon" is that fishing against the sun makes it difficult to observe the reaction of the fishing float.

60. "Autumn fishing in the shade," referring to the early autumn season when the summer heat has not yet completely dissipated. In the morning and afternoon, the water temperature remains high, and most fish seek shade under trees, reeds, and lotus leaves to "cool down" and "avoid the heat." Therefore, it is advisable to choose a place with shade, such as under trees, for fishing.

70. Generally, the fish in natural waters are more alert and timid. To avoid disturbances from humans, livestock, and other animals, they do not venture to the shore to forage during the day, but only come to the shore to be active and forage when it is dark in the morning and evening, or when it is late at night and quiet. This is the rationale behind the strategy of fishing close to the shore in the early morning and late evening.

"Winter fishing in warmth," meaning that during winter when the temperature is low, most fish are in a state of hibernation, and fishing is not advisable in the morning and evening due to the low water temperature.
