Jerome, immediately made it clear that the difference lies in the choice of the craft, in fact admitting that in France only plugs are mounted beacons in Italy, but only in the arrangement of weights on the line, in fact, unlike the Italian thought, a line with a few weights, represents the maximum sensitivity precision and also a line like that, can easily move the bulk along the wire, increasing or decreasing the distance from the 'loop, thus changing the' action. This, according to Jerome, it is not possible if you are fishing with a line of Italian design, in fact, is precisely the 'large number of dots that make up, make it stiff and difficult to modify to changing conditions. But we go into more detail:
Suppose we want to build a line to calibrate a float of 1.5 gr. According to the French school, the mount will built by a bulk, which will cover the '80% of the weight of the float, the block of lead, and placed at 30 cm from the' slot, while the remaining 20% \u200b\u200bwill consist of three shots, the first two are positioned at 15cm from bulk, while the third ball, the smallest, which means they will calibrate, will be made by 1cm 'slot. According to Jerome, the simplicity of this line, it determines its own strength, in fact, moving the bulk, ie, increasing or decreasing the distance from the 'loop, will change the' structure of the line, so as to meet the possible changes in conditions. for calibrating the same float, but this time with a geometry typical Italian style, it makes sense, carry paper and pen, a calculator and a lot of patience and the weight supported by the float, 1.5 grams, will be divided into five weight fractions, 50% (1.5 g), 25% (1.5 g), 12.5% \u200b\u200b(1.5 g), 6.25% (1.5 grams) and 3.12% (1.5 g). The first portion will be sealed with five seals, properly sized, the second fraction with four dots, the third with three, two with the fourth, and fifth with a lead seal, positioned near the slot. The end result will be a geometry known in the jargon, a mouse's tail, made up of 15 seals con peso a scalare, disposti a distanza logaritmica.
Nel primo caso esaminato, il calcolo matematico è il seguente:
galleggiante 1,5gr ( lenza francese )
bulk 80% = 1,2gr = 4x1+1x7 = 1,21gr
tail 20% = 0,29gr / 3 = 0,096gr = 1x5+1x6+1x8 = 0,3gr
tot. 1,51gr
Nel secondo caso esaminato, il calcolo matematico è il seguente:
galleggiante 1,5 gr ( lenza italiana )
1°- 50% = 0,75gr / 5 = 0,15gr = 5x4 = 0,8gr
2°- 25% = 0,37gr / 4 = 0,09gr = 1x5+1x6+1x7+1x8 = 0,39gr
3°- 12,5% = 0,19gr / 3 = 0,06gr = 1x8+2x9 = 0,19gr
4°- 6,25% = 0,09gr / 2 = 0,045gr = 1x9+1x10 = 0,1gr
5°- 3,12% = 0,045gr /1 = 0,045gr = 1x10 = 0,04gr
tot. 1,52gr
Obviously, the difference between the two frames, is such as not having to add comments. But let's not forget that we come from a tradition of fishing the past mainly focused on chub, with lines and fluttering frazionatissime, a long, thin, and it is inevitable that we carry with us the belief that small is synonymous sensitive. In contrast, the French are one-fish that they stay firmly planted on the bottom, having eaten a very lightweight, and had to fish with the float drowned, and the weights that are sometimes four inches from 'I love . I hope that after reading this post, the result of personal reflection, we convince ourselves of the 'uselessness of crowns of small weights, but even the French will have to resign to the fact that three of the four dots on the wire, it will take a few chub. To each his own.
And finally comes the night ... Thus ends another day devoted mainly to work, gym, etc. girl. Locked in my room, I can finally dedicate myself to the daily worm and fully immersed himself in the wonderful world of fishing.
